I recently moved from Sheffield to Denby Dale and transferred my cats and dog to be looked after by Donaldsons. I have lived in several countries including the UK most recently and Donaldsons are without doubt the best Veterinary Practice I have encountered. One of my three cats was diagnosed with Lymphoma 3 months ago by the previous vet, Vets for Pets in Rotherham. Upon the initial diagnosis, the vet there wanted to euthanise her the same day. I opted to try a course of Steriods. These have been administered by Donaldsons and my cat is coping well so far with the treatment and has a good quality of life at the moment. Every day spent with her is treasured by us. The team at Donaldsons are very caring, offer great customer service and the vets take time to discuss the treatment with you. I would highly recommend the team there and feel reassured that my pets are in the best care.
