About Oxford Bovine

Built on Relationships.
Focused on Better Herd Health.

For more than 25 years, Oxford Bovine has worked alongside dairy producers to improve herd health, reproduction, productivity and overall farm performance through progressive, preventative veterinary medicine.

Who We Are

Veterinary Care Built Around Your Farm

At Oxford Bovine, relationships are at the heart of what we do. We believe the best veterinary medicine starts with knowing our clients, understanding their farms and working alongside them toward their goals.

Our team provides comprehensive dairy production medicine, combining veterinary expertise with practical, farm-specific advice designed to make a measurable difference.

From preventative herd health and reproduction to productivity and overall farm performance, we look beyond individual treatments to help producers build healthier herds and stronger dairy operations.

Progressive Care.
Practical Advice.
Stronger Herds.

Every dairy operation has its own challenges, opportunities and goals. That's why our approach starts with understanding the farm.

We combine progressive veterinary medicine with practical on-farm experience to develop solutions that make sense for each producer and their herd.

Preventative

Focus on identifying risks early and supporting long-term herd health rather than simply responding to problems.

More Than 25 Years of Progressive Dairy Medicine

Founded in 2000.
Built for the future of dairy.

Oxford Bovine was founded by Dr. Tom Wheal in 2000 with a vision to provide dairy producers with veterinary care focused on preventative medicine and long-term herd health.

More than 25 years later, that philosophy continues to shape our practice.

While veterinary medicine, technology and dairy production have evolved, our fundamental approach hasn't: build strong relationships, understand the farm and use progressive, preventative veterinary medicine to help our clients succeed.
