Equine

The Dick Vet Equine Hospital is the most advanced equine hospital in Scotland, with more specialists under one roof than anywhere else in the country. It provides routine and emergency care for all equidae (horses, donkeys and mules) and surgical services for some other species including large exotic species, alpacas and farm animals.

We also operate a first opinion practice serving Edinburgh, the Lothians, parts of the Borders, Lanarkshire and Fife. Our specialist services include soft tissue and orthopaedic surgery, dentistry, internal medicine, diagnostic imaging, poor performance, neurology, behaviour, ophthalmology, interventional cardiology, anaesthesia, specialist farriery, acupuncture, and physiotherapy to name but a few.

We are the Scottish training centre for the large animal rescue initiative, training and providing expertise to vets and the emergency services in casualty-centred rescue.
