Where You and Your Horse Come First
Blaircourt Equine Veterinary Clinic has been in operation for over 30 years.
Our philosophy towards veterinary care is simple – to use the highest level of diagnostics and treatment appropriate to any given case, whilst at the same time, maintaining a good mix of care, compassion and common sense in treating your horse or pony. This applies to ALL our patients, be it foals, leisure horses, competition horses or geriatrics.
We offer a prompt & reliable ambulatory service, as well as excellent purpose built facilities in Woodham Ferrers, less than ten miles from the center of Chelmsford. The practice area covers Essex, Hertfordshire, North London & the Southern parts of Suffolk. However, our veterinary surgeons regularly travel around the UK to carry out “Pre-Purchase” examinations.
Following the relocation of Patrick Martin in 2014, Mark Meter welcomed two new partners, Patrick Traill and Ralph Hege, after which the practice has continued to go from strength to strength. Due to the clinic’s ongoing success, we have now been able to substantially re-invest. Our state of the art equipment has been upgraded and added for example; a new therapeutic and surgical laser system (ideal for effectively removing sarcoids), mobile Gastroscopy unit, the latest haematology and biochemistry machines to produce the most accurate and “on the day” blood results; new state of the art anaesthetic monitoring equipment; digital radiography equipment, to mention but a few.
Our dedicated team offer a 24 hour, 7 days a week, 365 days a year emergency care/cover should you require your horse or pony to be seen out of our normal consulting hours. Our nursing team and clinic are also on standby should your horse require more intensive treatment.
