We hope you all had a fabulous bank holiday 🫶 We are kicking off the week with another fantastic promotion!

🐴 GERIATRIC PROMOTION – Supporting Your Horse Through Their Golden Years 💛

As our horses get older, regular health checks become increasingly important. Our Geriatric Promotion is designed to give owners a comprehensive overview of their older horse’s health and help identify any age-related concerns early.

✨ What’s included?

🩺 1. Comprehensive Health Check
A thorough examination including:
• Eyes, heart and lungs
• Palpation of the body and limbs to check for lumps or other abnormalities
• Assessment of the horse walking and trotting to identify any signs of stiffness, lameness or other concerns

🩸 2. Blood Testing
A blood sample will be taken to assess:
• ACTH – to screen for PPID (Cushing’s disease)
• Insulin – to assess for abnormalities associated with metabolic disease
• Bloods for liver and kidney disease.

If any abnormalities are identified, we can discuss whether further testing is recommended.

🦷 3. Optional Dental Examination
New for this year, you can also add a sedated dental examination for £79, or use your horse’s usual HHP dental examination as part of their care.

💛 Why is a geriatric check important?
Older horses can develop health problems gradually, and early detection can make a real difference to their long-term wellbeing. A regular comprehensive check allows us to identify potential issues and put an appropriate management plan in place.

What an achievement! ⭐️

It was fantastic to see so many clients and staff, old and new, last night at Fairmoor Equine Clinic to celebrate 40 year service of Lesley Barwise-Munro (…may we add she is NOT retiring 😂 !!)

It was a fantastic turnout and we hope everyone enjoyed the evening 🫶 As both John and Ed mentioned, it is really quite something special to have represented the same practice for 40 years.
