We are committed to supporting the veterinary community and pets across New Zealand and bring specialist veterinary expertise to a growing number of regions across New Zealand. 

Dr Richard Jerram leads our regional service and travels to regional centres in Hamilton, Tauranga, Hawkes Bay, New Plymouth, Central Otago and Dunedin on a monthly basis. 

We are able to provide in-person specialist consultations, case reviews, plus collaborative clinical discussions with local veterinarians. Due to the framework of this service, we will not be able to perform diagnostic or treatment procedures on-site. 

On these scheduled regional visits, Dr Richard Jerram and other experienced VSA specialist veterinarians consult from local clinics, enabling convenient access for pet owners to specialist care.

The service is also able to provide educational presentations and veterinary learning sessions upon request.
