Referring Vets

At Animal Trust, we value the trust you place in us when referring your patients. Our experienced team is ready to accept a wide range of medical cases, ensuring your patients receive the advanced care they deserve. We’re committed to working collaboratively with you, providing transparent communication and expert support every step of the way.

We offer referral services from many of our sites, with the majority of referrals directed to our hospitals in Barnsley, Bolton, Ellesmere Port, and Shrewsbury. These hospitals are well equipped to handle advanced diagnostic imaging, orthopaedic and soft tissue surgery, and complex medical cases. They are open 365 days a year, ensuring continuity of care for your patients. Our most complex referrals are managed by our talented Advanced Practitioners or residency-trained vets.

Use our straightforward referral form below, and we’ll handle the rest, so you can focus on your patients’ well-being.
