About us
Highgate Veterinary Clinic is a seven vet practice with
the work split equally between farm and companion animals.
We believe in giving the best service we can and our
highly motivated, friendly and specialised team deliver
a modern and progressive service to our clients.
Dairy farms form the majority of our farm work, but
we also work closely with our beef and sheep clients.
Vets in the practice take part in all aspects of our
work; however we all have special clinical interests.
All vets and nurses attend regular training courses,
enabling us to give the best treatment and latest advice.
