We are delighted to have been serving the local community as an established Veterinary Practice since 1948. The present building was opened in 1963, and achieved hospital status in 1971 - the first practice in the North-East to achieve this high standard. Our aim is to always provide the very best facilities and care for your pets. We are proud to be a member of the RCVS Practice Standards Scheme, meaning you can be confident in our commitment to providing the highest standards of care. We are a well-equipped hospital with facilities to allow patients to be kept in overnight with 24/7 staffing. We also have branch practices in Whickham, Sunderland and Washington.
