Millburn Vets is a friendly, single-site practice located in the heart of Coleraine, where we primarily care for dogs, cats, and small furries. Our modern facility features three consulting rooms, dedicated cat and dog wards, two separate day procedure areas, a prep room, an operating room, and an imaging room - all designed to provide the highest standard of care.
Our talented nursing team takes pride in running their own consultations, offering services such as general health checks, weight clinics, laser therapy, physiotherapy, nail trims, and gland care. They also play a key role in supporting our vets with surgeries, which are typically routine, with advanced orthopedic or imaging cases referred as needed.
At Millburn Vets, we’re passionate about giving back to the community. We regularly collaborate with local charities, including Air Ambulance and the Doddie Aid Challenge, as part of our commitment to making a positive impact.
