About Us
Broad Lane Vets has been serving the pets of Coventry for over 40 years. Our main surgery on Broad Lane is now complemented by 2 further branch surgeries in Balsall Common and Radford Road.
Our team of 15 vets includes several certificate holders along with a wealth of experience, covering imaging, medicine, dermatology, feline practice (being Gold Cat Friendly) and ECC. We recently extended, providing dedicated areas for our 2 scanners and digital x-ray, plus a designated dental room with dental x-ray, and separate cat, dog and isolation wards. There's even a staff pet kennel area!
Offering genuinely flexible working is a big part of looking after our team, and we've been winning awards and writing articles about it since before most practices even considered it - so tell us what pattern you're looking for, and we'll see what we can do! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dhQrNDqCW5o
