How our fixed-price promise works

We've streamlined our referral process to make advanced care accessible and efficient for your practice.

We assess your pet’s needs

Your pet is seen by a named practitioner who reviews their history and carries out a thorough clinical examination. We’ll discuss what we’ve found and what we recommend, in plain English.

You receive a full, itemised estimate

Before any procedure begins, we provide a written, itemised estimate covering all costs: the procedure, anaesthetic, imaging, and follow-up. You’ll see exactly what you’re approving.

You approve and the price is fixed

Once you confirm, the price is locked. We don’t add to it. If unforeseen clinical complications arise during a procedure, we discuss this with you before proceeding, we never present a surprise bill after the fact.

Payment options

We accept all major credit and debit cards, bank transfer, and most insurance providers. We’ll provide a full itemised invoice for your records and to support insurance submissions.


We also offer 0% interest-free payment plans through DivideBuy on all surgical procedures. All you need to do is answer a few questions over the phone to see if you qualify. Ask our team when you book.

Using pet insurance

Most of our procedures are covered by standard pet insurance policies. We provide itemised invoices that make the claims process straightforward, and we’re happy to assist with pre-authorisation requests. Bring your insurance details to your appointment or contact us in advance.

The Northwest difference

We are different from the rest of the referral centres in the country. We've worked hard to make sure our reputation matches our quality.

Traditional approach

industry standard

"You won’t know the cost until after treatment."
  • Unexpected bills after procedure
  • Difficult financial conversations with clients
  • Uncertainty throughout.

Northwest approach

Our Commitment

"Fixed price agreed upfront, before treatment begins"
  • Complete cost transparency
  • No financial surprises for you or your clients.
  • Peace of mind throughout.

Your questions, answered

Quick answers for vets and pet owners about referrals, services, and what to expect.

Do you accept pet insurance?

Yes. Most of our procedures are covered by pet insurance policies. We provide a detailed, itemised invoice for every case, which makes the claims process straightforward. We can also assist with pre-authorisation requests. Please bring your insurance details to your appointment, or contact us in advance if you need guidance.

How does your fixed-price guarantee work?

We provide a full, itemised written estimate before any procedure begins. The price in that estimate is the price you pay, it doesn’t change once approved. We’re one of the only referral centres in the UK to operate this way, and we’ve done so since 2008. No hidden fees, no end-of-treatment surprises.

Does my pet need a referral from their vet?

No. While the majority of our cases come via veterinary referral, we welcome self-referring pet owners directly. You can book a consultation through our website. If you’re self-referring, it’s helpful to bring any recent vet notes or clinical history with you.

How do I refer my patient to Northwest Referrals?

Complete our online referral form which takes under 5 minutes. You can also refer via our dedicated WhatsApp service by scanning the QR code on our contact page. Our team will review your submission and confirm the appointment, typically within a few hours. For urgent cases, call us directly on 01942 242001.
