OUR VETERINARY PRACTICE Meet the team

Established since 1999, we are an exclusively farm animal veterinary practice serving farms in Cheshire, Staffordshire, Shropshire and North Wales.

EXPERTISE
We are leaders in the field of dairy veterinary services. Our team of enthusiastic vets has a combined experience of over 100 years working exclusively for farmers. Further qualifications achieved by the vets whilst working include three Certificates in Cattle Health and Production, and three Diplomas in Bovine Reproduction, indicating our high level of commitment and expertise. Areas of further specialisation include Bovine Embryo Transfer, pig and sheep work.

FRIENDLY
We pride ourselves on our personal service. Farm clients often build a relationship with one particular vet who will normally be their first port of call for advice. We work closely with each other in the Practice and try to ensure all of the vets are familiar with all of our clients’ farms.
The Practice organises several social events for clients throughout the year, as well as regular training events and farmer meetings.

SERVICE
We do not compromise on our service standards. We accommodate our clients’ veterinary needs whether they be emergencies, routine work, consultancy visits or just
telephone advice.

VALUE
We have a simple and transparent price structure. We aim to supply medicines to all of our clients at the most competitive prices in the UK. Our work on-farm is charged on a time basis. There is no additional visit fee, except out of hours. New clients consistently tell us that the veterinary services and medicines we provide are better value than their previous supplier.

Farm vets committed to your future.
