Camelids
Our camelid vets are highly experienced in dealing with alpacas and llamas having worked alongside large and small herds for many years. We enjoy working with clients to improve herd health and productivity. Our farm team are all members of the British Veterinary Camelid Society, which ensures we remain up to date with current best practice and can offer the best service to our camelid clients. Meet our farm team.
We are passionate about preventative healthcare and reducing common problems. Periodically, we offer client meetings on a range of camelid topics, helping to keep everyone up to date with current best practice. Find out more about our client meetings.
