Our Organisation

Our veterinary practice has been an integral part of our local community for years. In that time, we’ve helped thousands of our client's dairy cattle and goats, cats & dogs, rats, rabbits & guinea pigs, turtles, horses and even a few birds. Being so strongly integrated with our local community is important to us and our clients. Our customers know by experience that they can rely on us for sound advice and treatment options and that their livestock and pets are in the very best hands with our team.

Vet Clinic Morrinsville is part of Comhla Vet Ltd.

Our philosophy is all about looking after our team, providing premium animal welfare and making rural communities better by giving back to the districts that support us. This also means that many of our veterinarians are shareholders, ensuring the focus stays local and our animals, clients and people are front and centre. Comhla Vet is a dynamic business in growth mode and among other clinics, encompasses VetSouthWest Coast Vets and Veterinary Clinic Morrinsville.
