Orthopaedic Surgery

Orthopaedics is the largest surgical discipline at NEH and concerns principally joints and bones, with the most common procedures including arthroscopic surgery and fracture repair.

Internal Medicine

Conditions treated by our internal medicine team include diseases of the airways, heart, intestines, liver, kidneys and circulatory system.

Soft Tissue Surgery

The major disciplines in equine soft tissue surgery include abdominal (colic) surgery, airway, and urogenital surgery.

Colic

Colic is one of the most common surgical emergencies in the horse, and success revolves around a highly trained rapid response team.

Wind Surgery & Breathing Problems

Breathing problems are a surprisingly common cause of poor performance in the horse.

Diagnostic Imaging

Diagnostic imaging is a term used to describe methods which allow us to visualise structures and activities inside the body.

Lameness & Poor Performance

We understand the frustrations involved when a horse’s ability to perform at expected levels is impaired. Our experienced clinicians can systematically assess the potential causes and advise on treatment.

Rehabilitation

An athletic injury can result in a prolonged period out of training with consequential physical restrictions for the whole horse.

Dentistry

Equine dental disease manifests in numerous ways, from difficulty in eating and nasal discharge to more subtle bitting and performance-related issues.
