Equine Care

Usk Veterinary Centre has all the facilities required to care for your horse.  Horse owners are also welcome to bring their horse to our surgery by appointment or to Caerleon Veterinary Centre for routine vaccination.

The facilities at our Usk Surgery include the following: 

IN HOUSE LABORATORY

The laboratory at the Usk Surgery allows us to process blood samples, run analyses on urine and carry out worm egg counts on faecal sample to help advise you on the correct worming programme.

HOSPITALISATION

The Usk surgery has hospitalisation facilities. These consist of heated stabling with rubber matting, a turn out area if weather permits, intravenous fluid provision if needed and full supportive care.

SURGICAL PROCEDURES

We regularly perform routine surgical procedures such as castration and cryptorchid operations, hernia reduction and wound repair. They are mainly carried out at the Usk surgery or if conditions permit, where the horse/pony is kept.
