Lameness

Lameness is one of the most common problems requiring veterinary attention. The severity and cause of lameness varies greatly and our vets are experienced in investigating many types.

We are happy to work at your yard or in the clinic. We can accommodate your horse at the clinic if the lameness investigation requires advanced diagnostic exams such as MRI and scintigraphy to localise the cause. We can treat common conditions in a variety of ways such as joint medication for arthritis or stem cell therapy for damaged tendons.

If your horse requires specialist treatment following lameness diagnosis, Our Hospital orthopaedic surgeons can provide the best level of surgical treatment for ligament injuries, joint investigation, wound management and fracture repair.
