Te Kauwhata

Franklin Vets' Te Kauwhata veterinary clinic is located 150 metres past Te Kauwhata College, at the eastern end of Te Kauwhata township. The veterinary team provides services to pets, commercial farms, lifestyle farms & equine clients.

Our pet clinic, fully equipped with surgical and diagnostic facilities, operates 5 days a week, including a late night on Thursday, with backup from our BESTPRACTICE-accredited veterinary hospitals located in Pukekohe and Hamilton. We service the wider Rangiriri, Ohinewai, Waerenga, Huntly, Glen Murray and Naike areas. 

Our Te Kauwhata farm team works closely with our clients to ensure we have a good understanding of their business and farming goals. We recognise that the service we provide, along with the relationships we form with our clients, are crucial to our ongoing success. We work closely with our Taupiri branch to share after-hours and emergencies.

To speed things up, you can make appointments through our client portal, order repeat medication or buy from our online shop.
