Testimonials

  • "Awesome service and willing to diagnose and treat according to your expectation and budget."
    Patricia A.
  • "We brought my daughter's arabian Saud to be gelded at age 24 and his life spent as a stud and in the show ring. Doctor Johnson examined Saud and found be has a heart disease and explained every step of the way and his chances with a bad heart. We thought it over for awhile with tears and decided to go ahead with gelding. He stayed over night and the cost was very reasonable he pulled through with flying colors eith some swelling but it healed up nicely and we couldn't be happier. Thanks for the good care he is an amazing kids horse now and my granddaughter loves him so!!"

Its nice to see vets care so much about our horses. Thanks for the love and care Rosie and I received from you and your staff!
