This Spring Bank Holiday weekend, Hertfordshire’s Equine Veterinary Practice, Ballinger Equine, will continue to provide full service emergency and out-of-hours veterinary care. The practice’s own clinical team, will be on duty for emergencies, guaranteeing continuity of care for all our patients.
Equine veterinary care throughout Hertfordshire and the surrounding areas 365, 24/7
A privately owned and managed first-opinion equine veterinary practice, Ballinger Equine offers class-leading veterinary services throughout Hertfordshire, Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire, Essex, Epping Forest and North London. Ballinger Equine is not part of a corporate group and unlike an increasing number of practices, we don’t outsource our emergency service. This means the veterinary surgeons who care for your horse or pony during regular weekday visits continue to provide exactly the same expertise out-of-hours. All the surgeons in the team are briefed on ongoing care for patients and have full access to your horse’s clinical records. Practice Clinical Director, Dr Susanna Ballinger, manages her team 24/7, providing guidance and ensuring continuity of care.
It is so important not to delay urgent treatment should your horse or pony require it, and if you are in any doubt at all or you have a concern about the health of your horse, please be sure to call 01462 414008 at any time and consult one of our vets who will be happy to help.
