Company

Aldgate Vets is an independently owned practice with a team of highly experienced veterinary surgeons, registered veterinary nurses and reception staff based across our sites in Bridlington and Driffield.

Our ambition is to provide the best in preventative, diagnostic and emergency care whether it’s to small animals, horses or farm animals. We also believe strongly in being an excellent employer, providing a happy and safe place to work, and investing in the skills and qualifications of our wonderful team.

The practice evolved from the first two veterinary practices established in Driffield, both with roots going back to the 1940s.  Since then we have grown into a 16 vet, two centre practice, offering a comprehensive 24-hour call-out service to pets, farm animals and horses.

As the only remaining independent, non-corporate practice in Driffield and Bridlington, our aim is to continue the tradition of a high standard of care in a compassionate and down-to-earth manner. Our four current directors – David Smith, Lucy Butler, Gill Bailey and Giles Moore – all have active clinical roles within the practice and live within local communities. They are supported by an experienced and compassionate team of vets, nurses, reception and admin staff.
