Lameness Evaluations
Our team offers comprehensive evaluations for lameness. To do this, our veterinarian conducts flexion tests, full limb palpations, manipulations, and more. This helps us determine the kinds of treatment and rehabilitation your horse will benefit from.
Pre-Purchase Exams
Our veterinarian can examine a horse before you purchase it so you can have a clearer understanding of its health and potential for lameness. Our veterinarian uses digital radiography and ultrasound equipment to determine a horse’s health. Female horses can be assessed for reproductive health at this time.
Preventative Medicine
Preventative horse care involves annual examinations, vaccinations, deworming, and dentistry. This ensures the ongoing health of your horse.
Equine Dentistry
Our team also provides dental care, one of the most important aspects of health for a horse. Our team can sedate your horse to perform a thorough dental cleaning.
Gastroscopy
Gastric issues are common in horses, and they can make horses perform poorly and experience lameness. Our veterinarian can diagnose gastric ulcers and other serious issues.
Laser Therapy
Cold laser therapy is a therapeutic technique used to increase blood circulation to a specific area, decreasing pain and inflammation. If your horse is injured, this treatment option may be highly beneficial.
Shockwave Therapy
This treatment uses shock waves to relieve pain and improve recovery times. It is often used to treat ligament issues, tendon issues, bone fractures, inflammation, foot injuries, and other wounds.
Reproductive Services
Our veterinarian can provide reproductive assistance such as artificial insemination, pregnancy confirmation, ultrasound, and embryo transfer. We also provide manual twin reduction.
Chiropractic Care
Chiropractic adjustment and other chiropractic treatments can improve the performance, comfort, and ability of your horse. Our treatments maximize your horse's health and skill.
IRAP & PRP Treatments
IRAP, or interleukin receptor antagonist protein, is a method used to decrease joint inflammation. PRP, or platelet-rich plasma, is an injection used to treat tendon and ligament injuries.
Digital Radiography
Digital radiography allows our equine veterinarian to take x-ray images. This ensures your horse receives high-quality and efficient treatment.
Digital Ultrasound
Digital ultrasound is a process that allows our veterinarian to look at soft tissues inside your horse. This can help show the veterinarian any injury to ligaments or tendons.
Ambulatory Services
Our team provides full emergency services for ambulatory issues, and our radiography and ultrasound techniques can provide additional information about your horse's ability to walk properly.
Air Mobile Service
Air mobile services allow us to serve our clients in Colorado, California, and New Mexico. This also allows us to provide digital imaging in areas that would otherwise struggle to receive full-service veterinary care.
Emergency Vet Services
Emergency vet services include treatment for issues like lacerations, colic, trauma, choking, and reproductive emergencies. If your horse is in distress, our veterinarian can help.
