Our expert teams can assist you in making decisions on relevant testing and our scientific expertise is matched only by our customer dedication.

In addition to our comprehensive range of routine tests, we pioneer personalised health care including our DNA-profiling service powered by Orivet®, and our exclusive allervet® service. These services focus on early detection of disease, and personalised medicine, leading to more effective health management and improved outcomes for your patients.

Alongside our veterinary diagnostic services, we also offer a wide range of other microbiological services including environmental, water, pool hydrotherapy and equipment hygiene testing. We also operate an independent National External Quality Assessment (EQA) scheme for a wide range of analytical equipment brands.

Our interest does not stop at the point of diagnosis however, and we are involved in veterinary medicine research, contributing to publications using client generated samples and those gathered in collaboration with other veterinary centres and universities. We also support industry expertise and sponsor conferences and events, thus helping to foster training and advance education for the benefit of animals and humans.

As a centre of educational excellence, we provide a wide range of free and reasonably priced CPD for veterinary professionals. However, we also believe in the encouragement and support of younger generations, so our pathologists are also among 30,000 STEM volunteers inspiring school children across the UK and educating them about careers in science, veterinary profession, and work in the laboratory.

We have used NWL for many years now and are always impressed by their rapid turnaround, approachability and advice. The whole process from sample pickup to result reporting is very efficient and makes life so much easier for us in general practice.

Andrew Price, Tweed House Veterinary Surgery

Since working at Sandbeck I have been incredibly impressed with your lab – I’d go as far as to say it is the best service I have experienced in all my time in practice!

Julian Norton, The Yorkshire Vet at Sandbeck Vets

Twycross Zoo have used NWL for a few years. We have found the service to be first class and they are always happy to help with any queries we may have and offer extra testing if we need. The sample collection is a great service with us being based so rural.
