Aireworth Vets comprises of a dedicated team of qualified vets and nurses, animal care assistants and administrators.
We have a long running history of high quality care for animals in both Yorkshire and Lancashire.
As a practice we offer a wide range of services from routine healthcare, x-rays, endoscopy, ultrasound and emergency medicine through to advanced surgical procedures.
You can enjoy the convenience of the practice being open 7 days a week and the reassurance that we nurse our in-patients on-site 24 hours a day.
Aireworth Vets is RCVS Tier 2 (General Practice) accredited for both small animal and equine. This indicates that the practice has passed regular independent inspections by the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons.
