Our Practices

Free visit days are a popular way to provide your horse or pony with routine veterinary care at a reduced cost. The interactive map below will indicate which day your free visit is on. The free visits allow for routine work only (eg vaccinations, dentals, lameness checks, microchipping, blood and health tests etc.) to be done. The cost of the work remains as standard but the visit fee will not be applied.

The route for that visit day is planned in advance for routine work, according to the most economical route with respect to time and fuel consumption.

Please call the office before 2pm the day before your free visit day to book an appointment. You will be called with a time for your visit the afternoon before. Please note you will not be able to specify a certain time or vet as the route will depend upon the location of the calls that day. Please contact the Practice to book your appointment.

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.
