Smartvets Tauranga

Tauranga, Bay Of Plenty
General Info
Our brand new animal hospital is being purpose built at 511 Cameron Road, Tauranga and will be open soon. We have mobile service available at the moment. We have state of the art equipments and facilities including digital radiography, ultrasonography, in-house laboratory and sterile surgical suite.
Our aim is to provide friendly advice and high-standard of veterinary care at an affordable price. And thats possible because we work smarter…
Our team is led by Dr. Shrawan Bhandari, a New Zealand registered mixed practitioner with several years of working experience both with pets and farm animals. Originally from Nepal, he migrated to New Zealand in 2004 and is now a NZ citizen. Besides overseas (Canada, Nepal), in New Zealand he has worked as a vet in South Canterbury, Manawatu and Waikato regions.
He was qualified as a vet (BVSc) in 2001. After working for two years in mixed practice, he completed a masters degree from Massey University specialising in reproduction in 2004. He then moved to Canada and worked at University of Saskatoon. He came back to New Zealand to undertake a PhD in lung infections. After five years of research works, he successfully completed the doctoral degree from Christchurch School of Medicine, Otago University. He then studied at Massey to complete a postgraduate diploma in small animal oncology (study of cancers) and anaesthesia. He is very keen to keep himself update on the new research areas that can be applied to everyday vet practice.
He will be looking forward to meet you and your pets very soon!

I recently brought my goat Milo to SmartVets as he had been unwell. Although Milo's condition ended up being terminal, the treatment Milo received was outstanding. Dr Shrawan went above and beyond in obtaining a tricky diagnosis, was compassionate and understanding throughout Milo's illness and most importantly of all Milo was treated as not just a goat but as a beloved family member. I highly recommend SmartVets to everyone for any animal big or small. Read Less

Wouldn't hesitate to use SmartVets again! My dog needed emergency surgery for a pyometra..i was quoted $1400 from another vet down the road, and shrawan at SmartVets quoted me less than $300 for the same surgery and care! Definately the best price in town..the service was great, even though the surgery took place in the mobile unit due to clinic renovations, everything went without a hitch and the staff were very friendly and reassuring! Also had the added benefit of being able to text the vet with any queries and getting direct professional answers whenever needed without the hassle of making further appointments! *recommended* thanks again Shrawan and teamRead Less
