Company

The practice became Seafield Veterinary Group in 1982, having been renamed from R. S. Cowie and Partners which was founded in 1930’s. We are a very busy mixed animal practice covering roughly a 30 mile radius from the main surgery in Keith. We have an enthusiastic team of vets and support staff covering our three surgeries in Keith, Buckie and Banff. We pride ourselves in providing a 24 hour cover for all animals.

In 2018, Bellevue Veterinary Centre joined Seafield Veterinary Group and became our Banff Surgery. Our Banff Surgery is a small friendly practice, accredited by the RCVS and with experience in treating small animals as well as large animals.
