Free visit days are a popular way to provide your horse or pony with routine veterinary care at a reduced cost. The interactive map below will indicate which day your free visit is on. The free visits allow for routine work only (eg vaccinations, dentals, lameness checks, microchipping, blood and health tests etc.) to be done. The cost of the work remains as standard but the visit fee will not be applied.
Please call the office before 2pm the day before your free visit day to book an appointment. You will be called with a time for your visit the afternoon before. Please note you will not be able to specify a certain time or vet as the route will depend upon the location of the calls that day.
Please contact the Practice to book your appointment.
