Equine Veterinary Clinic Services

The Equine Veterinary Clinic provides a 24 hour/365 days a year ambulatory service for routine as well as emergency attention for your horse. The Clinic also boasts modern inpatient facilities, equipped with state of the art equipment for diagnostic investigations and advanced procedures.

Many of the routine services we offer, such as vaccinations, dental work and examinations, can be performed on visits to your horse. 

We offer a 'Four Horses For a Free Visit' booking structure.   This means If you have four or more horses at the same yard booked in for treatment on the same day you will each receive a free visit.  It certainly pays to get together with others on your yard and organise same day treatments.

You can also save on a visit fee by bringing your horse to the clinic for treatment

Referral Services

The Equine veterinary clinic accepts referrals from other veterinary practices throughout the UK.  This can only be achieved if the first opinion vet refers the case to The Equine Veterinary Clinic. In order to facilitate this we ask that the veterinary surgeon initially contacts us and then proceeds with a full history faxed through to 01505 610510 for our perusal.
