My horses have been under the care of this practice since it opened, and always will be. Without fail, Dr. Vivrette and every other vet who has been associated with this practice has provided compassionate, top notch care for every horse they've seen for me, regardless of the horse's age, value, or job.
They kept my dressage schoolmaster happy and performing until age 27, and then happily retired until age 34, a pretty remarkable feat for a horse with EPM, enteroliths, damaged lungs, and one who was generally a neurotic, picky eater, hard keeper, difficult TB. They kept my childhood pony sound and winning at shows until he died at age 30. Currently they are managing an incredibly difficult and rather fragile guy, who has Cushings, anhydrosis, insulin resistance, missing an eye, 5 bouts of laminitis, and arthritis - and at 20, he is sound and happy and still jumping, which I truly didn't expect would be possible for him.
They view themselves as part of your horse's healthcare team, and will work with your farrier and other professionals, and educate you, to help your horse reach his/her full potential. They are incredibly thorough - be prepared for biannual vaccinations to include mini physicals, reviews of diet, recommendations on shoeing, etc. I am a firm believer that this philosophy of care has caught numerous problems in my horses before they were really problems, saving me a small fortune over the years, and enabling my horses to have far longer careers and lives than they might otherwise have had. I could not be more grateful for the exceptional care they have provided to my four-legged children over many years.Read Less
