Waikato Equine Vet Centre

The Waikato Equine Veterinary Centre is a superb facility designed specifically to facilitate the provision of top quality equine veterinary care. Harrison Lane’s specialist equestrian design and construction expertise enabled the design and build of two stable blocks, an equine clinic and arena with a strong aesthetic and functional cohesion between all buildings in the complex and a focus on the safe and efficient access and movement of horses both during the day and at night. The establishment of this dedicated equestrian veterinarian facility in the Waikato enables the equestrian community ready and local access to a purpose designed facility created specifically to enable the safe handling and care of their sick/injured horses. It creates a central hub of equestrian care that in turn fosters a dedication to expertise, innovation and a high standard of service provision.
