Information for Clients

We have written numerous information sheets for our clients and we often refer to these when we are out on visits, or discharging patients from the surgery. Please follow the links in the box opposite where you can view the information or download a 'pdf' file for storage or printing out. If you do not have a 'pdf' file reader - click on the image below and you can download a free reader.

Newsletters

We write newsletters approximately quarterly which are always available in reception. You can also follow the links opposite to our current and past newsletters which are also available in 'pdf' format.

Client Evenings and Open Days

We run regular client evenings at local venues around our practice area. Client evenings are usually held during the winter months and are an opportunity for clients to come and listen to us and visiting speakers presenting short talks on topical issues. Past topics have included breeding mares, modern dentistry, first aid, the animal rescue division of the Fire and Rescue Service and equine colic.

Please e-mail us if you would like to suggest future topics or automatically receive invitations to future client evenings.

The evening was well attended for the talk on "Brood Mare and Artificial Insemination" with standing room only. We raised a total of £211.89 for the "Riding For The Disabled"

10.03.10 Client Evening at The Hub

A very big thank you to our guest speaker Professor Derek Knottenbelt of Liverpool University who has pioneered research and treatment of the now famous 'Liverpool Sarcoid Cream'. His talk on "Equine Sarcoids and Common Skin Diseases" was very entertaining and informative.

Also a very big thank you to all our clients who so generously gave donations to the continued work with disabled children in Mali, a charity very close to Derek's heart. We raised a total of £902.50.

We have now submitted plans to expand our practice. We have become increasingly short of space as we have grown, and added more equipment such as our new bone scanner (scintigraphy suite). We also require more stables as our surgical and medical caseload increases.
