With 8 dedicated experienced farm veterinarians, we cover farms all over Ayrshire and beyond. Providing a comprehensive list of farm health services and a robust out of hours service for all emergencies with 2 vets on call at all times. The vets spend the majority of their time treating cows on both dairy and beef farms. However a wide range of other farm species including sheep, goats, poultry an

Due to the Equine split we have also been looking at some of our other working practices and are moving our invoices to email rather than post.

You may well have been contacted alreadt to ensure we have an up-to-date email address and ensure you are happy with the change.

The first email invoices will be sent out in October.

If you have any questions, please get in touch by phoning 01563 522701 or by email on [email protected].

As you may be aware, MBM Equine is reorganising and merging with two other equine practices to form Thistle Equine.

As a result, MBM will no longer have help from the equine staff who helped run our Syke practice. Therefore, from the 1st of October MBM Syke will no longer be open on a Saturday morning with all phone calls going through to our Out of Hours service. We will continue to be open Monday to Friday 8.30am to 5.30pm as normal.

To facilitate drug collections there will be a lock box outside where we can place non fridge items over the weekend to allow collection. If you wish to use this facility, please let us know when placing your order as drugs will only be put in the lock box if requested.

We are also looking to centralise our call answering and stock service. This will mean eventually all calls and drugs will come to Syke. All drugs will be sent to Mauchline, Beith or Kilmarnock to allow collection at the site nearest your farm. We are doing this to make us more compliant with regulations regarding the dispensing of medicines and to try and deliver a better more efficient and more consistent service. This will mean there will be no medicines being stocked at Mauchline, Beith or Kilmarnock, so nothing will be there unless you have ordered it. We are going to start the centralisation of calls with Beith on the 1st of November and then with Mauchline on the 1st of December.

If you have any questions, please get in touch by phoning 01563 522701 or by email on [email protected].

Completed it!! In just over 22 hours, our MBM crew completed the 3 highest peaks in Wales, England and Scotland! The weather couldn't have been worse - continual rain on every hill and not a view from any summit! But many laughs were had along the way and they all pushed themselves further than some thought possible.
The main reason for this epic feat was to raise money for a fantastic charity - The Canmore Trust - which they've done by the bucket load (current total over £6000 - the team sends many thanks!!).
Enjoy some well earned sleep and getting dried out, well done team!!!

Any final donations appreciated - https://www.justgiving.com/page/michael-fallon-1?utm_medium=FR&utm_source=WA&utm_campaign=015

1 of 3 peaks done! The team summited Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon) at 10.30am. Not much of a view to be had, but it didn't rain all the time! 😅 Onwards and upwards to Scafell Pike for them now!

AND THEY'RE OFF!!! This weekend 12 of our colleagues are taking on the National 3 peaks challenge to raise money for The Canmore Trust. After a busy shift, they are travelling 5 hours to Wales to start with Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon) at 9am tomorrow. The weather forecast looks pretty abysmal for all 3 mountains (with heavy showers, thunder and fog), so the team will need all the support they can get!
If you can give anything to support this great cause, it would be gratefully received.

We're understandably getting a lot of questions about Bluetongue at the moment. We know there are lots of conflicting (and potentially unreliable) sources information out there! To help this, we are hosting a meeting at the practice next week - with speakers from the SRUC and APHA - to help you make informed decisions about the bluetongue risk to your flock/herd. Hopefully see you there! (Please RSVP for catering purposes)

Earlier this week, Michael, Grace, Sophie, Evie and Rachel tackled 2 Munros as part of their training for the National 3 peaks challenge.
Weather conditions were more mixed than they've been used to, but time is of the essence with only 2 weeks to go until the challenge!

12 of us at MBM - across farm, equine and small animal departments - are aiming to complete the 3 highest mountains in England, Scotland and Wales within 24 hours. In doing so, we hope to raise as much money as we can for the Canmore Trust, to support its work in su***de prevention.

Every donation, big or small, makes a difference. Thank you to all who have donated so far and please support us if you can — together, we can help ensure more lives are saved and more families are supported.

It's less than 4 weeks to go until some of the MBM team take on the National Three Peaks Challenge for The Canmore Trust. We've been making the most of the sunshine, racking up the miles and ascent in preparation!

We're thrilled with our fundraising total so far - thank you to everyone who has kindly donated! However, we hope to raise more in support of the Canmore Trust's work for su***de prevention. This cause is especially important to us, as su***de has sadly impacted many lives within the veterinary profession.

Every donation, big or small, makes a difference. Please support us if you can — together, we can help ensure more lives are saved and more families are supported.

Our Story

Our farm department consists of 7 dedicated farm vets, covering farms all over Ayrshire and beyond. We have a dedicated team providing 24 hour care and advice, and an out of hours service is available for all emergencies. The vets spend the majority of their time treating cows on both dairy and beef farms. However a wide range of other farm species including sheep, goats, poultry and even the occasional alpaca are treated. As well as this, the farm department also focuses on herd plans and preventative medicine. With the help of farmers, we design health plans which aim to further reduce the incidence of disease and therefore improve animal welfare.
