About us
Canterbury Vets is a busy and privately owned and operated local practice with clinics in both Ashburton and Methven – both located only an hour from Christchurch – providing large and companion animal veterinary services and products since 1993.
We are a professional, friendly team and pride ourselves in providing exceptional veterinary care.
Our services for small animals range from vaccinations and health checks through dental care and surgery to emergencies and more. For larger animals, whether they’re treasured pets or production animals earning valuable income or equine, we treat them with the same care and commitment that their owners do.
Very clean premises really lovely staff ready to answer any questions you might have and brilliant with the animals very caring – Neville C – Google Review
