Who We Are

Ashburne Veterinary Hospital provides high-quality veterinary diagnostics, treatment, preventative care, and hospitalisation for all your family pets. Our experienced team is committed to delivering the best possible medical support, from routine check-ups to advanced procedures, all within a calm, caring environment.

We are equipped with our own state-of-the-art in-house laboratory, allowing us to run blood tests and other diagnostics quickly and accurately. This means faster answers, earlier interventions, and peace of mind for pet owners who don’t want to wait days for critical results.

Ashburne Veterinary Hospital is more than just a clinic, it’s a dedicated, animal-centred facility where pets receive comprehensive, compassionate care from a team of exceptional veterinary professionals. We take the time to listen, explain, and tailor every treatment plan, ensuring that both pets and their people feel supported at every stage of their journey.

Our Mission

At Ashburne Veterinary Hospital, our mission is to provide exceptional, reliable, and continuous veterinary care to every animal entrusted to us. With the largest veterinary team in KwaZulu-Natal, we are uniquely positioned to offer a level of consistency and continuity that few facilities can equal. No matter the hour, there is always a qualified veterinarian on duty — day or night — ensuring that urgent cases are attended to immediately and that ongoing patients receive seamless, uninterrupted care.

Every member of our team is carefully selected not only for clinical expertise but also for their compassion, integrity, and genuine love for animals. This combination of skill and empathy forms the heart of our approach and guides every decision we make.

While we are widely recognised for our trauma and emergency capabilities, our commitment reaches far beyond our hospital walls. We are deeply invested in the wellbeing of all animals in our community. Through active involvement in wildlife medicine and longstanding partnerships with organisations such as Monkey Helpline and PACT, we extend our resources, time, and knowledge to support vulnerable wildlife and rescue efforts. Our mission is not only to heal — but to protect, uplift, and advocate for the animals that share our world.
