Reproductive Medicine
Our veterinarians are involved in all aspects of equine reproduction from broodmare pre-purchase examinations, preparing mares for service, artificial insemination, monitoring high risk pregnancies, attending difficult foalings and stallion fertility assessments.
Advances in technologies such as ultrasonography, laparoscopy and laser therapy combined with developments in hormonal therapy and bacterial swabbing techniques mean that a number of mares which were not able to conceive or carry a foal to term can now be managed and deliver a live healthy foal.
