Veterinary Dispensory
Government Veterinary Polyclinics are public veterinary institutions that provide comprehensive healthcare and specialised treatment services for animals. Compared to regular veterinary hospitals and dispensaries, these institutions offer a wider range of specialised services and treatment facilities. In Kerala, Veterinary Polyclinics function under the Department of Animal Husbandry.
The major objectives of Government Veterinary Polyclinics are to provide quality healthcare to livestock and domestic animals, prevent and control animal diseases, support the economic security of farmers, promote dairy and meat production, and strengthen the overall livestock sector.
Major Services
- Outpatient Treatment – Examination and treatment of sick and injured animals.
- Surgical Services – Selected polyclinics provide specialised surgical facilities.
- Laboratory Investigations – Diagnostic services such as blood tests and other laboratory examinations.
- Preventive Vaccination – Vaccination to prevent the spread of infectious diseases among animals.
- Emergency Treatment – Medical care in emergencies such as accidents and poisoning.
- Pet Animal Services – Treatment, advice, and related services for pets such as dogs and cats.
Government Veterinary Polyclinics play an important role in supporting Kerala's agricultural and livestock sectors. By providing scientific and affordable veterinary care to livestock farmers and pet owners, they make a significant contribution to the development and strengthening of the animal husbandry sector.
