If you would like an update please give us a ring on our main reception line during office hours (8am-6pm).

You will be contacted if there is any update or change to your horses condition. Remember no news is good news!

Our secretaries that take appointments do not work at weekends. They are available from Monday- Friday 8am to 6pm and are happy to take appointments between those hours. After hours our on-call nurse will have the phone for emergencies only and will not be able to take appointments unless deemed an emergency.

Please let a member of staff know if you are uncomfortable loading/unloading your animal or need help. We have an unloading bay and plenty of hands to give a hand. Do not feel embarrassed asking for help. Safety comes first. The hospital is a very busy place especially during lameness clinics. Please make sure you are standing out of the way in a safe spot whilst waiting with your animal. It is vital you let us know if your animal can be tricky in any way or is prone to biting,kicking or raring. If the animal has never been twitched before or has been and wasn't fond of it please again inform us. Inform a vet or a nurse if you know of any bad reactions to drugs the animal may have had previously. We need to know if the animal is yours or not and who is paying for the procedure.
