about usYour friendly, family owned and run, Christchurch veterinarian!

At Merivale Papanui Vets we take pride in delivering personalized, compassionate care to our patients and their owners in Christchurch and surrounding areas. Our team strives to provide a comfortable environment for our patients and clients and we want everyone, either two legged or four, to feel welcome as soon as they enter our veterinary clinic. This all starts with a warm hello for you and a treat for your pet.

Our practice opened its doors in 1976 and offers a wide range of medical services and surgeries for dogs, cats, rabbits, rats, birds, mice and even fish. We’re located at 375 Papanui Rd and we have ample space for safe parking.

Dr’sTim and Georgina Nottage bought Merivale Papanui Vets in 2008 from Dr. Tony Mitchell who started the practice in the 1970’s. Please visit our Services page to learn more about the services we provide.
