Bishopton Veterinary Group – Vets in Harrogate

Updated January 2026
Independent Clinic

Clinic Overview

Bishopton Veterinary Group is part of a wider multi-site practice (the website references care for pets, farm animals, pigs and equine, and mentions “RAFT Solutions Ltd”). Recent reviews describe straightforward pet appointments as well as same-day bookings via the PetsApp, with at least one case involving sedation and a nail removal performed to avoid delaying treatment when operating theatres elsewhere were fully booked. Owners also mention ongoing management such as monthly arthritis injections for an older cat, and note clear aftercare instructions and follow-up dressing-change appointments after a procedure.

Services

  • Small animal care (pets): routine consultations and check-ups are mentioned in reviews.
  • Same-day appointment booking: one owner booked a slot for later the same afternoon using the PetsApp.
  • Sedation and minor procedure: removal of a badly split nail “under sedation,” with medication provided afterwards.
  • Wound/aftercare management: post-procedure instructions plus future appointments for dressing changes were provided.
  • Arthritis management: monthly arthritis injections for an older cat are described by one owner.
  • Broader practice scope (from the website): care for pets, farm animals, pigs, and equine is referenced.

People

  • Jess / Jessica (vet): repeatedly described as gentle with cats, making the visit “a very easy experience” for one cat; another owner says Jessica is “always careful” when giving monthly arthritis injections to an elderly Persian cat.
  • Georgie (vet): in one review, Georgie opted to carry out a nail removal herself (with nurse assistance) when theatre availability elsewhere would have delayed treatment; the owner highlights the communication (a call when ready for collection) and detailed aftercare instructions.
  • Reception team: mentioned as giving a “friendly welcome” and being “friendly and helpful as always.”

Reviews

5 stars from 139 reviews. - Gentle handling, especially with cats: multiple reviews mention Jess/Jessica being particularly gentle, making visits easier for nervous or sensitive pets.

  • Speed and flexibility when something suddenly goes wrong: one owner reports booking a same-day appointment via PetsApp for a dog that became lame.
  • Clear aftercare following procedures: owners describe getting post-procedure care instructions, medication, and scheduled dressing-change visits.
  • Good experiences across the team: comments frequently mention reception, vets, and nurses as friendly/helpful and “very professional.”
