Company

Haven Veterinary Surgery operate a policy of Gold Standard Care.

Haven Veterinary Surgeons (formerly known as Shipley and Son) was established during the 1880's and has since become one of the largest Veterinary practices in the area today.

Mr W. Shipley retired from the practice in 1992. Mr Gabri joined Mr Livie and Mr Higginson, as a partner in 1995. Mr Higginson retired in 2003. The name was changed to Haven Veterinary Surgeons in 1995.

Due to the increasing demand, the practice decided and planned their move to much larger premises, this move took place during December 2001.

Whilst at the current premises on Queen Annes Road in Great Yarmouth, we expanded the number of consulting rooms from 2 at Steam Mill Lane, to 5. On site there are 2 fully equipped operating theatres with state of the art equipment. There is also a laboratory for in-house diagnostics where blood samples can be analysed, and a separate radiography suite. Electrocardiograph (ECG), Ultrasound and Endoscopy were added at a later date.

We have a strong commitment to continuing professional training CPD) to ensure we provide up-to-date treatments and investigations of illness for all our patients. We pride ourselves on our client, as well as patient care, and are also great believers in preventative healthcare for your pet.

We would be happy to book a guided tour of our facilities, for you to have a look behind the scenes.

From staff numbers totalling 5 when Mr Livie joined the Practice in 1981, the practice now has a total of 40 staff. There are 2 Directors, 1 Practice Manager and 7 Associate Vets. There is a Nursing team of 15, consisting of 9 Veterinary Nurses, 3 Student Veterinary Nurses and 3
General Nursing Assistants. We also have a 12 strong Reception team.

The Practice is involved with many charities and provide a Veterinary Surgeon to attend RSPCA Clinics twice weekly.
