Welcome to Yorkshire Independent Referrals, we’re here to support your local vet in providing the highest standard of care possible for your canine and feline companions. As an independent referral service, we work alongside your vet and offer expert, compassionate support – always with your pets’ wellbeing at the heart of what we do
Our services
At present, we are here to support vets in a select range of referral services including orthopaedics, neurosurgery, cardiology and advanced diagnostic imaging (CT and MRI). Working closely with our referral vets we provide expert care that is tailored to each pet.

Our facilities
We operate from a newly refurbished surgery in a historic mission building that combines charm with advanced medical technology. Our facilities include a spacious prep room, three patient wards and 2 sterile operating theatres equipped with hepa-filtered ventilation for optimal sterility. We offer advanced imaging and diagnostics including CT, digital x-ray, ultrasound, arthroscopy with Nanoscope technology and a visiting MRI service. With regular hygiene audits, OTEX laundry for infection control and full air conditioning, our environment prioritises the safety and comfort of both patients and staff.

Raquel was amazing this week with our basset Stanley who was really weak after having spinal surgery 3 years ago. The nurses, especially Rachel were so caring. Thank you all so very much. Stanley is doing better each day.Kristie Greaves

My experiences of referring dogs to YIR have all been extremely positive. I’ve been able to discuss cases with a knowledgeable vet, received clear cost estimates, timely appointments, and quick follow-up reports. I’ve been very pleased by the care given to my clients’ dogs.Lisa Girdwood BVM&S MRCVS
