Congratulations to the class of 2025 who have completed their last ever day as vet students!! A successful last day including lameness, dentals and opthalmic exams. A well deserved celebration to complete their 6 years of university and Rumaysa’s last day with us!

Star of the day goes to Rory! He was a very good boy for his dental and vaccine (and even better for his photo shoot at the end of the appointment!!).

Like all horses, it is very important for him to have his teeth checked regularly. This is especially the case for little mouths as they can often be a lot more crowded. If you would like to discuss your ponies dental care with any of our vets, please contact reception on 01223 760535.

A big thanks to British Animal Rescue and Trauma Care Association for coming out today to teach our final year students about emergency rescue in large animals. The students had a great time and learnt lots!

We recently purchased a new portable ultrasound machine which is a great investment for our ambulatory services - especially when it allows both diagnostics in the field and hands-on learning for students. It is great to see in this photo, a final year vet student gaining valuable experience under the expert guidance from
Craig.

We are half way through the month of April which is our Flu Vaccine amnesty month, make sure to book your vaccine so you get one free!

'April Amnesty'
🐴 Free Flu vaccine
🐴 Did you realise all horses are at risk of flu, even if they don’t leave the yard as the virus can travel through the air up to 2km. Plus competing and hacking horses could get infected and bring flu back to the yard.
🐴 Vaccination is the most effective tool you have to protect your horse.
🐴 If your horse is unvaccinated, please contact the practice to book an appointment and we will provide 'One Vaccine for Free' in the primary course.

Over the past few weeks, we’ve had the pleasure of welcoming veterinary students and professors from Gifu University and Tottori University, both in Japan.

During their visit, they rotated through a range of services at the Queen’s Veterinary School Hospital, part of the Department of Veterinary Medicine at the University of Cambridge. This included Internal Medicine, Oncology, Physiotherapy, Anaesthesia, Soft Tissue Surgery, the Equine Clinic, and Neurology.

It’s always a privilege to host student vets from around the world, exchanging knowledge and experiences is vital for the continued progression of veterinary medicine.

Thank you for visiting us! 🇯🇵 🇬🇧 🐾

We thought this footage was too good not to share…. Captured here is Abbie, the daughter of our Head Nurse Sarah.
Abbie & Rocco have spent the last month in Spain competing in the 6 year old classes gaining some great results. We wish them a safe trip back to the Uk. 🇪🇸 🔜 🇬🇧
