Equine Surgery Wexford

The Borovalley Equine Surgery has been in operation since the clinic opened in June 2009.  The surgery is fully equipped and has two padded rooms to maximise the safety of the horse during induction and recovery from anaesthesia. Close circuit TV is also used to monitor horses recovering after surgery. The clinic is currently only doing elective surgery on a weekly basis.

 

Digital Radiology

Using the latest digital x-ray equipment, The Borovalley Equine Clinic offers a wide range of services including pre-purchase x-rays, survey radiographs, and diagnostic imaging of problem areas in the horse including the head, neck, back and legs. For emergency cases, x-rays can be taken on the farm in cases where it is not possible to transport the injured horse safely.

 

Digital Ultrasound

Ultrasound is a very useful non-invasive diagnostic tool used to image a range of conditions that affect the horse. The advent of new technology and improved techniques allows us to image just about any soft tissue structure in the equine patient.  Ultrasound is an excellent compliment to radiology as it allows us to visualise soft tissue areas around joints that can not be picked up on x-rays.

 

Equine Dentistry

Equine dentistry is an important area for maintaining optimum performance and health of the horse. Oral pain and discomfort can be due to many disorders of the mouth including; sharp enamel points, wolf teeth, hooks, loose or fractured teeth, gum disease from pocketing food, ulceration, impacted deciduous teeth and abscess.
