Farm Animals
At North Park we have an excellent team of dedicated, friendly and experienced farm animal vets. Within the team, we have one holder of the Diploma in Bovine Reproduction (DBR), and four Advanced Practitioner Certificate holders. This demonstrates our commitment to stay at the forefront of current knowledge and ideas, which ultimately allows us to provide the best possible service to our clients and their animals.
Our specific services, amongst many others, include:
- Regular herd health fertility visits at a reduced rate for our dairy clients, with early pregnancy diagnosis achievable with our IMV ultrasound scanners.
- Competitively priced pregnancy diagnosis for beef suckler farms, with simultaneous body condition scoring and generation of a summary report as standard.

- Heifer internal pelvic measuring prior to breeding to reduce calving problems associated with feto-maternal disproportion.

- Private and Statutory TB testing, including TBAS trained vets to provide you with the best advice to minimise the entry of TB onto your farm.
