About us

Here at Atherton Vets our dedicated team are passionate about providing the very best of care for your pet throughout their life stages. Our practice serves pet owners in Atherton, Tyldesley, Leigh, Hindley, Wigan, Walkden, Worsley, Bolton and Westhoughton as well as surrounding areas.

Our vets, nurses and support staff are all here to help you with your pet’s health and welfare. We believe that preventive heath care such as vaccinations, flea and worm prevention, neutering and micro-chipping will help your cats, dogs and rabbits enjoy a long and happy life so talk to us about the best way of protecting your pets. 

We are also experienced in pet care for a wide range of animals so whatever your pet we are sure we can help.

Should your pet require any surgical treatment we are well equipped here. From minor procedures through to a range of more complex orthopaedic and soft tissue operations.

In 2012 we had the rare opportunity to design a brand new practice and to relocate very close to the original site which meant no inconvenience to existing clients and even better facilities for existing and new clients and pets. The new premises provided excellent car parking, a large waiting room with excellent access for disabled clients and the less mobile pets and even better hospitalisation and operating facilities.

Very few clients have actually had the opportunity to view the practice beyond the consulting and waiting rooms. Those that have are amazed at the size of the practice and the facilities that are available. If you would like a tour of our facilities please contact us and a nurse will give a guided tour whether you are an existing client who wants to see what goes on behind the scenes or if you are a new client and are thinking of allowing us to provide your pet with veterinary care.
