Advanced Fertility Services
Fertility is a key factor in the productivity of your herd, and we are proud to offer advanced fertility services for both dairy and beef cattle.

We also conduct in-depth herd fertility investigations to help you maximise the reproductive efficiency of your livestock.

We offer advanced breeding services in partnership with Paragon Advanced Breeding, including OPU/IVF embryo production and transfer. This allows you to maximise genetic potential, improve fertility and overcome breeding challenges. We also provide recipient synchronisation, embryo storage and boarding for donor cows.

Routine veterinary procedures are an essential part of livestock management. Our team handles disbudding, castration, dehorning, and lameness management with the utmost care and professionalism. We ensure that these procedures are performed in a way that minimizes stress and discomfort for your animals.

Good health is the foundation of a productive herd, and we offer full herd health planning and advisory services to support this. Our bespoke organic health planning is tailored to meet the specific needs of your farm, providing you with personalised advice and strategies. We also offer expert interpretation of health schemes, ensuring that you make informed decisions about the care and management of your livestock.
Parasitic Disease Management and Control
Parasitic diseases can have a significant impact on the health and productivity of your herd.

We also provide bull fertility investigations and pre-breeding soundness examinations to help maintain the reproductive efficiency of your herd.
Mastitis Investigation and Control
Mastitis is a common and costly condition in dairy operations. Our veterinarians are highly experienced in mastitis investigation and control, utilising the latest techniques to minimize its impact on your herd. We work closely with you to develop effective strategies for preventing and managing this condition.
Regulatory Compliance and Certification
Meeting regulatory requirements is a critical aspect of livestock management. Many of our veterinarians are Local Veterinary Inspectors (LVIs) and certified Official Veterinarians (OVs) for export certification. This ensures that we can assist you with all aspects of animal health and welfare compliance, including the necessary certifications for export.
Specialised Neonatal Care
Our facilities include a dedicated hospitalisation unit for neonatal calves, where we provide intensive treatment and care for these vulnerable animals. This specialised unit allows us to offer the highest standard of care, improving outcomes for calves that require close monitoring and treatment.
Ongoing Education and Support
We believe in the importance of ongoing education and support for our clients. We regularly host farmer meetings and courses on a wide range of topics related to cattle care and management. These sessions are designed to keep you informed and up-to-date with the latest industry practices, helping you to manage your livestock more effectively.
Proactive Herd Health Management
While we are always ready to respond to emergencies, we strongly advocate for a proactive approach to herd health management. By focusing on herd medicine and disease prevention, we aim to help our clients maintain healthy and productive livestock. Our goal is to work with you to develop a comprehensive herd health plan that minimizes the risk of disease and maximises the productivity of your herd.
