Company

In 1997 we moved to our purpose-built premises in Harmire Enterprise Park, where we enjoy excellent access for our clients, including parking and turning for even very large equine transporters.

Our branch surgery at St Helen Auckland was refurbished internally in 2007 to provide additional surgical and kennelling facilities. This enables us to offer a wide range of procedures that do not require overnight or prolonged hospitalisation, enhancing our support for the local pet community. 

We have recently opened a new Equine Branch in Lanchester, County Durham.
