Welcome!

Cahir Vet Clinic was set up in 1992 by the Veterinary Surgeon Folke Rohrssen, with the intention of delivering a diversified and quality service in the area, as a mixed practice dealing with dogs, cats, and predominantly dairy cows clients.

​

We have since grown to work from 2 sites (1 small animal hospital and 1 mixed practice) with 6 vets and 12 staff in total. Among these, 3 vets work predominantly with small animals and 3 with farm animals. 

​

The area serviced includes South Tipperary, Waterford, Cork, and some larger clients in surrounding counties, too.

​

The average dairy herd size has exceeded 100 cows and much of the work focuses on herd health, fertility, and preventative vaccination programs. We perform regular pre- and post service ultrasound scanning and advise on synchronization programs.  Out of hours, work is now the exception but we run a 1 in3 rota.

 

The clinics are equipped with blood laboratory machines for hematology, biochemistry. We do in-house microscopy and the X-ray system is digital. We have available 4 US scanners (2 SA, 2LA).

 

Some of the support staff are working in the practice for over 20 years and are familiar with all client's issues and very willing to help.
