Unlock your passions at Crown Vets

Crown Vets is a group of small animal practices located in Inverness. Inverness is a vibrant city with good shopping, cafes, live music venues, restaurants and bars. We have a theatre (Eden Court) which hosts musicals, plays, ballet and numerous special events such as outdoor music events during the Summer. The Highlands are certainly the place to be for those with a passion for the outdoors- the scenery is second to none and there is endless opportunity for walking, wild swimming, camping and paddle boarding! There are lots to do for families and children of all ages- Inverness is very child friendly with an array of festivals and events catered for families. There is a leisure centre and pool with waterslides, ice skating rink, many parks and petting farms. Many of the primary and high schools in the area have very good reputations and ranking in Scotland.  Great travel links by car, rail and air.

We have three veterinary practices providing exceptional first opinion care to dogs, cats, small mammals, birds and exotic animals. Our sites consist of our main branch in Crown itself where you will get to enjoy hustle, bustle and challenge of a busy day, at our Culloden and Canalside practices you can enjoy sole charge consulting only.

We have a friendly and supportive team of 12 Vets, 12 Nurses and excellent support and administration teams. Within the team, we have certificate holders in Medicine and Surgery. We also have a Referral Surgeon for any support and advice you may require.

Our practice is well-equipped to handle a wide range of veterinary diagnostics and treatments. We have dental x-ray, endoscopy, direct digital x-ray, ultrasound, and an in-house lab for various tests like haematology, biochemistry, and more, offers a comprehensive suite for both routine and complex cases. Access to a CT scanner through our referral practice adds another layer of advanced diagnostic capability.

In this teaching practice, support extends beyond just the coach involving the whole team to help the new vets develop their skills and confidence. This team-based approach ensures that graduate's benefit from a wide range of expertise, fostering a collaborative learning environment. The large team means there is always someone nearby to offer support, discuss cases with and learn from.  We believe in good clinical discussions, have twice daily ward rounds and regular Vet meetings.
