Caring for animals for over 80 years

Paragon Veterinary Group is a Cumbrian-based veterinary practice with over 80 years experience in caring for animals. The name 'par-a-gon' refers to a model of excellence or perfection, and over the years we have gone from strength-to-strength to build up our reputation to the highest possible standards in our field.
Furthermore, we are passionate about doing this sustainably, being advocates for animal health and a sustainable future

We combine high standards of companion animal clinical veterinary practice with a commitment to nursing and all-round patient care.

Our busy equine team covers the full range from companion donkeys through to racehorses and top-flight competition animals.
