For all of us at The Strand Veterinarian, our ambition is to create a care environment acceptable to the most discerning of clientele, our own precious four-legged familiars. A place to be nurtured and healed – a place where intuitively they feel the heart behind our service, trusting us to look after their best interests when it comes to their health.
When we talk about ‘heart’, for us that means a high standard of customer care, a commitment to increasing the skills and knowledge of our extraordinary team, and the creation of a space where love, respect and understanding of our client’s special relationship with their animal companion takes place.

Sustainable business
As proud members of the Sustainable Business Network, reducing our impact on the environment is something as a locally owned and independent veterinary hospital we strive for.
We limit our plastic use by swapping to compostable alternatives where we can, utilising the soft plastic recycling scheme, and compostable courier bags and dog waste bags. We are using recycled paper to print when needed, although all our invoices and clinical notes are emailed out as we strive to lead our clients to paperless information transfer.
We proudly support NZ businesses especially those who have great initiatives such as compostable treat packaging, eco-friendly cleaning products and bamboo toothbrushes. We use rechargeable batteries and are driving a Terracycle initiative to recycle our used PPE equipment.
We are a team of likeminded eco-friendly individuals who are always looking for ways to improve veterinary practice sustainability.
