Case of the week
This weeks โcase of the weekโ was a real โ๐๐๐ข๐ง ๐๐ง ๐๐ก๐ ๐๐จ๐ฌ๐โ
Wallace was brought to the clinic by his trainer because he appeared displeased when anything came near his face. Wallace was lucky enough to be seen by our guest veterinarian Dr. Westyn King.
After an extensive exam by Dr. Westyn he was able to pinpoint the area of concern to his nose and requested additional diagnostics. A through ultrasound exam was performed by using advanced techniques to come to a diagnoses.
Wallace had a splinter in his NOSE!
While this story might be fictional Westynโs love for horses and pretending to be a doctor is not. We couldnโt be more appreciative of Dr. Westyn graciously coming to our aid to solve such a tricky case.
Thank you King Show Horses for letting us capture this precious moment.

Brunoโs case is one no one can forget. He has had a long road to recovery, 10 months to be exact. His fracture has healed beautifully and after much anticipation, his rider was able to take him for stroll.
Bruno was a well behaved gentleman and enjoyed getting back to a more normal life. He is on strict walking only while being ridden for the next couple weeks, before he can begin trotting for short periods of time.
Successful cases like these make this stressful career choice worth while. Bruno also owes a large portion of his success to his owners who followed his strict rehab plan and took impeccable care of him. ๏ฟผWe canโt wait to keep up with Brunoโs story for years to come!

Our new standing MRI unit was delivered yesterday. The set up process will take several days, along with 4 days of training for the staff members who will be part of the operational team.
This addition to the practice will allow us to perform lower limb MRIโs on horses without having to put them under general anesthesia and lay them down.
The advances in technology make this a great option and will allow us to receive high quality diagnostic images.
Stay tuned for the next announcement, when we will be ready to schedule appointments!
