About us
Carmel Veterinary Centre is an RCVS Tier 2 accredited, VNTP, two-site small animal practice based in Wolverhampton. We’re kitted out with endoscopy, ultrasound, dental X-rays, full Idexx labs as well orthopaedic kit. We care about our team, patients and clients in that order because we understand that unless you are at your best, the patient care and client experience won’t be the best.
