Vets & Vet Businesses

The NZVA is committed to ensuring that the veterinary profession’s high standards and contribution to animal welfare (and the New Zealand economy), are recognised and valued.

Our commitment is underpinned by our investment in veterinary professionals themselves, their careers and their practices.

In 1998 we established the National Quality Veterinary Services (NQVS) to provide a range of quality assurance and risk management programmes to help veterinarians do the best job they can in their chosen field.

These programmes provide veterinary practitioners running a business - as well as those operating on their own - with support tools to ensure they deliver a high quality service to their clients.
