Production Animals

Our proud clinic history originates from the original Tauranga-Katikati Veterinary Services Club Incorporated. Servicing the local dairy farmers, sheep, beef and deer farmers we continue to operate as a contract veterinary practice.

Membership for production animal farmers entitles you to special privileges to ensure you economic viability of a production animal health service. Our experienced veterinarians (some farmers) understand your business and offer traditional veterinary service, along with consultancy on herd reproduction, mastitis, nutrition, lameness and mineral advice.

Also we competitively supply Restricted Veterinary Medicines (RVM’s), exclusive veterinary animal health products such as worm drenches, ectoparasiticides, mineral supplements, metabolic treatments, electrolytes and animal equipment.
