Clinic facility
Our facility has a 6-stall barn with runs, stocks, and differing ground surfaces (used to perform complete lameness evaluations).
There is NO office call charge if you can haul your horse to us for an in-clinic appointment.
The stocks can be extremely useful, or even necessary, for certain procedures in our equine patients. For example, geriatric patients sometimes will benefit from the support of the stocks for dental procedures. We can discuss if your horse may benefit from being seen in the hospital versus on the farm.
Hospitalization
We offer medical management to patients who have colic including intravenous (IV) fluids and pain management in the hospital. We will recommend and aid in referral to a surgical facility if colic surgery is an option for your horse.
We require 50% of the quoted estimate to be paid at time of drop-off.
Rocky Mountain Equine Clinic also offers hospitalization for other medical treatments. Some examples include eye treatments (with or without a lavage system (SPL)), wound care (with or without bandaging), and uterine flushing for mares that had a retained placenta.
Please call us if you have a horse you think could benefit from hospitalization.
