Vet Professionals

COVID-19 update

At Northwest Veterinary Specialists, the health and wellbeing of our patients, colleagues and wider community is a number one priority. With this in mind, we are still committed to providing care to the pets and clients you refer to us. Find out more.

At Northwest Veterinary Specialists, we’re proud to support the great work that Vet Professionals up and down the country are doing day in day out.

We’re here to help you when required and would like to share with you the different classifications and ways you can refer a case to us. We do ask that you have as much information to hand as possible and would like to advise that a brief case history is required on the call to assess the clinical needs of your patient.

There are three ways to make a referral

Emergency Referrals

For emergency cases, please phone us on 01928 711400.

 An initial assessment of the case will be made before asking you to send the case history via email; the email address to use is enquiries@nwspecialists.com. We aim to confirm an appointment booking within 10 minutes of your initial request.

Routine Referrals

For routine cases, please download and fill in our referral form.

 As soon as we receive the referral information we will then contact the pet owner and arrange an appointment at their earliest convenience, so you do not need to act as an intermediary.

What our clients say

It was like a miracle to be honest, even our local vet had told us that they didn’t think our pet would pull through. If your pet has been referred to these guys you can be assured that they are in the best hands!

A very calming consultation with a vet that explained everything really clearly and gave us confidence in how to care for our lab with hip dysplasia, to enable us to delay full hip surgery

This place is amazing!! They looked after my dog so well and fixed his legs. They are absolutely brilliant!!!

Unfortunately I had to have my beautiful Maine Coon put to sleep; however Luca and his Intern team were absolutely wonderful with us. They are a team of ‘Supervets’ so yes, their services are expensive but I wouldn’t have trusted anyone else to look after my little man. A big thank you to all

Was referred to NW surgeons with our dog Max who had stones found in his urethra. Cannot thank our surgeon Matt enough for his expert work also his honest & detailed explanation of the procedure was greatly appreciated. We left feeling Max was in excellent hands!
