Company

Holly House has been providing North Leeds with quality veterinary care since 1994 and the North of England with dedicated exotic care facilities for over ten years. We also provide our own 24 hour on-site emergency service so there is no need to travel to other branches out-of-hours. Our emergency service can be accessed by calling the usual number at any time, day or night.

In 2010, Holly House succeeded in its dream of becoming the first Veterinary Hospital in North Leeds. The Practice Standards Scheme is a voluntary initiative set up by the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons (RCVS), which aims to promote and maintain the highest standards of veterinary care. The RCVS has inspected us and agreed that our facilities, equipment and also our levels of care and expertise reach Hospital standard.

The practice is owned by Stuart McArthur and run by him and a dedicated team of Vets, Nurses and Reception staff. You can find out more about our staff and the qualifications they hold in our about us section.
