Formerly known as Auckland Veterinary Centre this clinic is now part of the Veterinary Hospital Group.
We deliver service and care to all companion animals. The Practice has a surgical suite, in house lab and digital ultrasound and radiography equipment. Our reputation for dedicated, boutique expert care is based on understanding our clients and what their animals mean to them. It starts with a personal relationship between our team and our clients and is built on our commitment to continuing care of their animals. We aim to be the leaders in veterinary service, professionalism and knowledge.
