Farm Animal Practice

The Dick Vet Farm Animal Practice is a first opinion practice providing veterinary care for all farm animal species.

Our farm animal veterinary services cover Edinburgh, The Lothians, Borders and other surrounding areas. We offer a full range of clinical services as well as 24 hour emergency cover all year round.

Our dedicated team of farm animal vets have a wealth of wide ranging clinical experience, holding postgraduate qualifications in a variety of areas.  The majority of our staff are recognised as RCVS Advanced Practitioners in either sheep or cattle.  

Our farm animal practice vets will treat all farm animal species, but can also provide specialist knowledge and advice for less common species.

As part of the R(D)SVS we have  a responsibility for training the next generation of practicing veterinary surgeons, therefore undergraduate veterinary students often accompany vets on calls.

New out of hours phone provider

We have changed our out of hours (OOHs) phone provider to VetSec, who are a veterinary specific call handling service.

Should you require veterinary assistance out-with office hours (Monday to Friday 8.30am to 5pm) please call our usual number (0131 445 4468) and your call will be directed to VetSec, and our duty vet will call you back as soon as possible.

If you have saved our previous OOHs number (the Telephone Answering Service, 01223 849 835) please delete this.
