District vet contact details

Need to contact your Local Land Services District Veterinarian? Your District Veterinarian is a valuable resource for local and independent advice on biosecurity and animal health issues. They can investigate herd and flock problems to help maintain a productive and secure local livestock industry.

Their work helps protect the NSW economy, environment and community, and meet national and state standards and outcomes.

Our vets are often out on farm so if you cannot reach your local vet and need to report a suspect emergency animal disease, please call:

  • Local Land Services (1300 795 299)
