We love what we do and we care.

We are a family-based small animal practice in Ingleby Barwick, opened by Penny and Derek Copeland in 1999. Our aim is to provide the highest medical and surgical standards in a kind and caring environment.
 

Penny and Derek designed the practice back in 1999 and we are still very proud of how it looks and functions. We were lucky enough to be nominated and win the Veterinary Business Journal award for practice design of the year, beating practices from all over the country. Our award-winning facilities are fully equipped with digital x-ray, orthopaedic kit, dental suite, doppler ultrasound, endoscope, PRP and Stem Cell Therapy equipment and hydrotherapy suite. 

Work/life balance is a real priority for us, so we make it easy for you to find the perfect balance of work and life.

What our team say:

“I started working at Copeland veterinary surgeons in Oct 2000 as a student Nurse and went on to Qualify as a registered veterinary Nurse. Copelands has always been a very busy practice with a varied workload, which has helped me become a better Nurse and gain more experience, which made me more confident in training students when I was a clinical coach.

I am now Practice Manager which I enjoy very much and I do still put on my scrubs and get stuck in with Nurse clinics and Theatre procedures.

We are situated in Europe’s largest Housing estate, Ingleby Barwick, close to the Northeast Coast line and North Yorkshire Moor’s which has some beautiful hikes/walks & bike tracks.”

– Nicola Ward, Practice Manager
