General equine medicine referral service

We are now expanding our equine services to offer a referral service in general medicine.

 

0117 928 9621/9620

24 hour emergency service available

Welcome

We welcome referrals for all kinds of elective and emergency medical investigation and treatment. We are fully equipped to manage all types of cases, with facilities including both adult and foal intensive care units, endoscopy, gastroscopy, ultrasonography, echocardiography and ECG. We work alongside our on-site lab, staffed by recognised Specialists in pathology, to help us reach accurate diagnoses rapidly. A number of medical cases will require surgical intervention, for diagnosis and/or treatment. It is often a particular advantage for these cases that we have access to minimally invasive surgical techniques, which often do not require general anaesthesia and have a rapid recovery time. The medical and surgical teams work closely together to ensure the best possible care.
