Nestled in a picturesque market town rich in green spaces and family friendly amenities, this practice offers the perfect blend of rewarding work and a balanced lifestyle.
This respected 80% equine, 20% farm practice has been serving its loyal client base for over 148 years. Equipped with modern ambulatory kit and a genuine enthusiasm for progressive care, the team offers services such as gastroscopy, ultrasound, laser therapy, endoscopy, x-ray, nerve blocks, and artificial insemination – all supported by an experienced Equine Technician.
