❗️𝗣𝗵𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀❗️

Unfortunately we have experienced a flood at the clinic this weekend which means our IT system is temporarily down. A big thank you to the amazing Anna and Dan from Yardley heating for coming and sorting the leak out yesterday!

Today in true BEV family style our vets, reception and nurse team have been hard at work sorting the clinic out but please bear with us if you have an appointment coming up or need to book in as we get things running again. Emergency phone lines are still working and the line will stay as emergencies only tomorrow, so please do not call the line unless you have a horse requiring an urgent/emergency visit.

We will update you as soon as we can and thank you all for your patience!

🍀 𝗚𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝗟𝘂𝗰𝗸 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗹𝗼𝘁𝘁𝗲 🍀

Today we are sadly saying goodbye and good luck to one of our vets, Charlotte. She has been an asset to the team from the day she started with us and been a pleasure to work with, always coming in with a big smile! We are sure many of our clients will also miss Charlotte (just as much as Steph's dog Quinn) and join us in saying goodbye and wish her the best of luck on her new adventure.

We can't wait to see what she gets up to in the future!

Did you know that equine acupuncture can be used in the treatment of many medical conditions? Just like in human medicine acupuncture is an effective, evidence based, adjunctive treatment for the management of a plethora of medical conditions. We find it particularly useful in the management of musculoskeletal pain and it can be used to assist in the treatment of both poor performance and lameness cases. Vet Jess Laffan is now offering this service either at our purpose built clinic or on your yard. We ask that horses are clean, dry and in an area with no bedding ready for their treatment. Most insurance policies that include complimentary therapies, will cover acupuncture treatment if it is recommended by your treating vet. If you feel that this is something that may benefit your horse, then please feel free to discuss this with your treating vet.
