Unlock your passions @ Wilton House Vets
Wilton House is perfectly situated in the beautiful Cleveland hills, but also close to coast, so excellent walking and activity area. We are located in a large market town, very close to Teesside Airport and local train stations, it has some amazing eating places and many pubs in the town that offer a wide range of activities, or if you prefer a quite stroll the hills are on the doorstep.
Our wonderful team are a friendly group of very caring and compassionate people, who support each other inside practice and out with group activities. We are made up of 3 Vets, 5 Nurses and 1 VCA along with a newly appointed CD who brings a wealth of experience to the team. One of our Vets is studying for a certificate in Radiology. The Nurses are so supportive, and they play a vital role in supporting our Vets daily, as well as having some wonderful relationships with the clients and their pets.
Practice facilities include Idexx in House lab equipment, digital x-ray, Ultrasound scanner, mutiparameter anesthetic monitoring and we will have a dental x-ray shortly.
