Equipment

Diagnostics and treatment brought to the yard


A great deal can now be done properly on site, which means fewer journeys for the horse and a faster route to an answer.

  • Digital radiography
  • Diagnostic ultrasound
  • Diagnostic analgesia — nerve and intra-synovial blocks
  • Intra-synovial medication and regenerative therapies
  • Extracorporeal shockwave treatment
  • Class IV laser therapy

Where a case needs facilities beyond an ambulatory setting — advanced imaging or surgery — referral is arranged to a hospital that suits the horse and the problem, with the findings handed over in full.

Opening hours & emergencies

Opening hours

Normal hours of business are between 9am and 5pm.

Out of hours and emergencies

We aim to provide an emergency service outside our normal working hours, 365 days a year. Although our Clinical Director, Stephanie Miller, aims to cover all equine emergencies personally, owing to the small scale of the practice there will be times when this isn’t possible. Accordingly, from time to time out-of-hours and/or emergency cover may be provided by Gillivervets. Gillivervets is a trading name of VetPartners Practices Limited, Company No. 10084952.

Emergency visits incur an out-of-hours surcharge in addition to the usual visit fee. We reserve the right to request part or full payment before attending an out-of-hours call.

If Gillivervets attend, you will be invoiced by The Sport Horse Vet Ltd in the usual way. In the interests of your equine, clinical records relating to your equine may be shared with Gillivervets, VetPartners Practices Limited, Company No. 10084952.

In an emergency, telephone 07494 295509.

Please do not use the website enquiry form, email, social media or WhatsApp to notify us about an emergency, as none of these platforms are monitored around the clock.
