Trusted Veterinary Care in Cumbria
Established in 1999 through the merger of Croft and Millfields Vets, our practice traces its roots to six small veterinary clinics dating back to the 1920s. We operate as an independent veterinary group committed to delivering high-quality care for pets, equines, and farm animals across Cumbria. Our team comprises Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons members who provide 24/7 emergency services alongside routine care. We maintain a strong focus on sustainability and community support while preserving our independent status. Our new logo reflects our dedication to animal welfare and the unique landscapes of our region.With branches in Cockermouth, Egremont, Keswick, Maryport, Workington, and Aspatria, we combine decades of experience with modern veterinary practices. Our services include vaccinations, neutering, laser therapy, and specialist care for exotic pets. We also offer bereavement support and pet travel advice to assist our clients comprehensively. Our practice remains closed during standard hours but provides emergency cover through our Cockermouth facility. We appreciate our clients' loyalty that enables us to maintain our independent approach to veterinary medicine.

Services
Vaccinations
We provide comprehensive vaccination programmes for cats, dogs, and exotic pets to prevent infectious diseases. Our protocols follow the latest veterinary guidelines and are tailored to each animal's lifestyle. Clients receive clear documentation of their pet's vaccination history.
Neutering
Our surgical neutering services include pre-operative assessments and post-operative care plans. We offer this procedure for various pet types with appropriate anaesthetic protocols. Recovery guidance is provided to ensure optimal healing outcomes.
Laser therapy
We utilise advanced laser technology to treat musculoskeletal conditions and aid wound healing. This non-invasive treatment reduces inflammation and promotes cellular regeneration. Sessions are conducted by trained veterinary professionals using calibrated equipment.
