Canterbury vet making community veterinary vision a reality

Nicole Mathewson Reporter from Northern Outlook

The lockdown gave Canterbury sports vet Sara Bagheri a chance to hone her long-held vision of providing community veterinary services to those who cannot afford to treat their pets.

"As vets we don't get any subsidies from the Government to reduce the costs of animal care and it's been a long-held dream of mine to create a service which provides vet care to those who might otherwise struggle to afford it," she said.

"Pets are so important for wellbeing and especially in uncertain times when we can turn to our pets for a source of comfort and routine."

Bagheri is currently developing a plan for the community vet service and is keen to hear from others who would like to be involved in the project.
