Drake Vets Yelverton

Yelverton, Tavistock, Devon

Part of Yelverton →

Our vet practice has its origins in Horrabridge near Yelverton and was originally known as Town Farm Vets.  The Practice was originally started by Nelson Bowden in the early 80’s and moved to Horrabridge for many years as a local mixed practice. 

In 2003 the practice changed hands eventually to Karen Tyrrell and Peter Mackellar and in 2010 changed its name to Drake Vets ltd concentrating solely on small animals.
