Surgery

Patient welfare is paramount. We are equipped and experienced enough to cope with most surgical and medical issues. Should we find ourselves out of our depth or requiring a second opinion, we are a large enough clinic to have backup at hand. We have a good relationship with the veterinary specialists in Auckland and will not hesitate to refer you and your pet should we feel that this is appropriate.

NAVSR - The affordable answer

As specialist surgical fees become prohibitively high for some, NAVSR may be able to offer a more affordable solution.

NAVSR operates out of Warkworth Vets' Veterinary Hospital, a modern, purpose-built animal hospital on Hudson Road, Warkworth.

About NAVSR

Experienced veterinary surgeon

NAVSR Veterinary Surgeon | Boet Vermeulen

Boet Vermeulen is the principal surgeon of NAVSR. He is a Massey University graduate and full-time surgeon with a special interest in orthopaedic surgery, including fracture repair, TPLO and TTA cruciate ligament repair techniques. Boet has a vast array of modern surgical equipment which when coupled with the most modern veterinary facility in the Auckland region will help him to achieve the best possible outcome for your injured pet. Boet is not a diploma registered specialist surgeon. His very busy caseload and family life mean that he lacks the time to jump through the hoops that lead to full specialist registration. His very busy caseload is, however, testament to his surgical skill and success rate.
