I do not recommend this place, the most important thing for them is money, not animal health. we lost puppies because of them and we have almost lost mum. We went there during labor we already had one puppy, they did not want to do a caesarean or keep us there, we live 45 minutes from barnsley. On the way home we went to another vet who said we were crawling for a moment and we would lose a bitch with the rest of the puppies. I believe that in such places the most important thing is money not the health of animals. Luckily other vet check the bitch and decided to make emergency cesarean. Thanks too them we save mum and 10 pups. Unfortunately we lost 1 which in Abbey vets didn't want to take care off. Now have to pay £70 bill for not checking properly bitch and puppy even if was there only for 1 minute just to get told to go home. Read Less

Thank you to everyone who helped in our emergency. Staff were amazing, friendly and so detailed with information & after care. The way the lady dealt with my daughters call in such a stressful time was above and beyond. She helped to keep her calm and reassured. So impressed with the staff and care received we have transferred our dog to Abbey Vets for future care. Absolutely brilliant Thank you :) Read Less

These lovely people gave great support when I made the decision to put my little lady Amber to sleep. They had all the time in the world without rushing us and despite Amber been part Ferrell they treated her with the care and dignity that she deserved. They also sent a card the had been placed at her final resting place. From the bottom of my heart I thankyou all. x Read Less

Unfortunately the visit wasn’t the visit I would have wanted due to my beautiful 2 year old greyhound (Lance) passing due to unexpected heart failure. I feel a special mention is a must as ALL the staff at Abbey handled the situation with care, consideration and the upmost of compassion for both Lance and my family alike. Thankyou for all your kind care! Martyn, Peter, Lynne, Steven (Duffy) Read Less

I would like to thank the girl on the phone for the great help i had in a emergency and the vet for opening the surgery would use this vets every time if i ever need in the future thanks again for all your help Read Less

This is an extremely good vets. We have used the main Dodworth branch as well as Darton and Hoyland branches and have have always received a totally professional but caring service. Recently the vets at the Dodworth branch literally saved our GSD Jake’s life when he suffered a twisted stomach. Many many thanks to Mr Duffy for his incredible surgical skill and Mihai and his team for aftercare that was beyond measure. I have used this practice since the late 1990’s and I do not hesitate in my recommendation. Read Less

There’s no star less than one. So that’s what it will have to be. Please do not take your dogs to abbey vets. They refused to treat my poorly dog after a dog fight. He couldn’t walk. Or even put his paw on the ground. A hole in his leg. And they refused to treat him. Vet rebecca penn at cudworth surgery tried to put a Yorkshire terrier muzzle on a staff x lab dog. Which wouldn’t fit over his nose and I asked for a bigger one cos it was choking him. In which she replied it’s meant to. And started laughing and pointing in my face. Whilst I was cry begging her to treat my little boy. She was asking me to leave the vets and refused any kind of treatment. All because I asked for a bigger muzzle. Please avoid this vets. There will be a paper article shortly Read Less

Absolutely amazing wouldn't go anywhere eles they helped loads with archie our labrador he was our boy who sadly had to be put to sleep the girls on front desk are so lovely compassionate and very helpful I would definitely recommend these thank you everything Read Less

I think this is the best vets in town. They even have their own hydrotherapy 0ool for your doggy. The staff are all fantastic and Tony Duffy the main vet and the actual owner 8f the surgery is amazing Read Less

My 8 yr old dog loves going and hates leaving.... what does that tell You!!! Had her done a few years ago and before she left she had to run upstairs to say bye to everyone and they were like awe is misha going home now and gave her a cuddle bless Read Less

There was no option for 0 stars...i adopted my 2 kittens from the rspca therefore recieved spaying and micro chipping in the price i booked them in today for their proceedure i was told to fast them from 7pm the previous night which i did i got them to abbey vets for 0815 i was told by the nurse they would be done early with them only being babies so at 1245 i rung them to see if they were ok only to be told they hadnt yet had the proceedure!!!!!! To think they had been crying for food for 5 hours (they were crying for food before we left!) Breaks my heart and to think they could actually listen to them is appalling im never going to trust this vets with my babies ever again.....shame on you abbey vets Read Less

Stephen Capon, Deepcar - worst vet I've ever had the misfortune to visit. First question you are asked when you walk through the door is "are you insured". The bill then just goes up and up..... Not an animal lover at all, my animal hated him, no bedside manner at all. Stephen Capon is rude, obnoxious, disgusting and deserves to have no customers at all due to way he treats them. Avoid like the plague! I know of someone who was told 5 years ago her cat had a stomach tumour (she had the cat insured), amazingly after a visits and lots of worry, she decided not to have any cancer treatment - guess what? He'd made a mistake and the cat is now cured of cancer, never had it in the first place..total con artist..... Read Less

Lovely staff and excellent service. I have a number of dogs registered with Abbey and when my car caught fire recently with dogs on board they let me use their car park out of hours till recovery services came to take me home. Recommend them to any one now. Lj (K9 handler n transporter) Read Less

Always manage to get a last minute appointment. Always greeted with a smile and the girls are always lovely. The vets and nurses are great and always seem genuinely eager to help. Highly recommended local practice. Read Less

I cannot put NO STARS but I would have if I could have...I would NOT recommend this practice. We have had nothing but incompetency!! and now our beloved family pet has had to be put to sleep and we find total insensitivity! Money HAD to change hands before the injection was even administered. And now, after the promise of a call to collect his ashes my sister has had to ring them and be told that he is there waiting to be picked up! My father even rang last week and was told that she (my sister) would receive a call. Terrible service and I am disgusted. Read Less

Awful experience!!!! Used for a number of years with my cats but after this experience I will never return!!! Couldn't believe how I was treated with my cat! Disrespectful and rude staff! Stay away! Went else where and we will be using this vets from now on. Read Less

Don't deserve a review if I'm honest, worst vets you could imagine, nurses haven't a clue what they're doing rude staff, whilst in reception only hearing members of staff slating one another one can only imagine what goes off behind closed doors! DO NOT USE THIS VETS! Read Less

Everyone is caring and helpful. Everything is explained so I understand. Romeo doesn't fret or worry, which means I worry less! All the staff gave him lots of attention! Today, I was put at ease, knowing Romeo was in the best hands. An appointment was made more or less straight away. I would definitely recommend ABBEY VETERINARY GROUP. Read Less

We got Beryl our rescue cat in September last year and she hid for the first two months. Abbey vets were Brilliant with Beryl, vets were great nurses were very knowledgable and most importantly reassuring. They listen and to me this is important. Beryl has come out of her shell over time and I wouldn't let Beryl go anywhere else. Read Less

Only bothered if your pet is insured and they can get every last penny out of you. My dog only sprained her foot and the total bill was over 600. Have been with abbey for over sixteen years and have a dog and two cats. Not anymore. Will be finding another vets. Also receptionists ought to have a lesson in customer service. Could go on and on. Deters you from getting other pets. Read Less

Our Labrador has always been very nervous when visiting and we thought the various vets we had seen over the years (visits only for annual vaccination) had been sympathetic to this as the visits were both traumatising for our dog and upsetting for us. However, having made a claim on our pet insurance recently when he had been ill we got a copy of his record held on Abbey's computer file and the comments were far from sympathetic labelling him 'a nightmare' and 'aggressive' - I've never come across an aggressive Labrador and for nightmare read traumatised - very hurtful comments not made to our face dispelling what we thought had been a sympathetic caring service - we have registered elsewhere and wont be back!
