I recently called to schedule an appointment for my horse who was experiencing respiratory issues. The front desk was very nice and accommodating and got him in at the time and day I requested. Dr. Christine did a thorough and focused physical exam and some minimally invasive tests including an upper airway endoscopy. She was quickly and accurately able to diagnose his chronic cough and initiated therapy after taking time to educate me about the causes. My horse is already feeling so much better! The veterinary intern Dr. Tim helped unload and load my horses in a friendly and engaging manner. From start to finish (front desk, veterinarian, technician, intern) I found TEH to be kind, thorough, professional, and knowledgeable. I am glad I chose to bring my horse here and trust them implicitly with his care. He is my big sweet boy and family to me. Thank you TEH! Read Less

We had to call someone out at 10:30PM on a Friday night because our horse choked. I can't remember the vet's name who came out but he was so nice and super efficient! We were extremely pleased with the service and even more excited that the bill was so reasonable. It was cheaper than the time we had to take the same horse in to a different clinic for the same problem on a week day. Can't say enough good things here! Read Less

My two twn-year-old mares Sophie and Serafina are charter members of the Tennessee Equine Income Protection and Enhancement Club. Seriously - three hospitalizations totaling almost three months between them last year. So I can speak as a (reluctant) expert as to the care that horses receive! The veterinarians (Drs. Nathaniel, Liberty & Kara treat my horses) are first rate: very knowledgeable, capable and caring. The staff and interns are also first rate, and in fact Serafina who was at TEH for almost two months for (successful) treatment of a severe stromal abscess nickered to them when she went back for her check up, so despite the painful nature of her treatment, she felt their love and caring and bonded with them. (Sophie is also very fond of Dr. Nathaniel and is looking forward to maintaining the TEH income stream this year as we try to get her in foal. Serafina hopes to have only routine care from now on.)Read Less

I have a horse that is 25 years old and developed a bladder stone. The Staff took us straight in when we arrived and worked on my guy for over 2 hours. They all were true professionals and gave Clay the best care he has ever had. After a week of medication and care his follow up visit was great news. Thanks Doc and staff, I will always be in your debt. Jeff Duke and family. Read Less

I'm so grateful for Dr. Mike Caruso and all the Tennessee Equine Hospital staff. Everyone I've dealt with has been kind and their facility made me very comfortable. I feel like they took excellent care of Comet during her surgery and stay. Read Less

Dr. Christine came right away on a Sunday afternoon for my senior horse who was in need of immediate care. She compassionately, professionally, and efficiently provided care and educated us about the condition and ongoing care. She promptly checked in with us the next day. We found the answering service to be very professional, as well. We greatly appreciate the service provided by Dr. Christine and the TN Equine Hospital. Read Less

I have used Tn Equine Hospital for both serious medical challenges and routinely for stallion semen analysis and collection. I would highly recommend this professional, caring team for your equine needs. Read Less

TN Equine Hospital has the best vets. Caring and knowledgeable, they are also teachers, willing to explain and discuss care without making me feel dumb. They have taken care of my small herd of horses for over 12 years and have saved the life of one of my horses. They have great facilities. You can either haul to the clinic or they will come out for a farm call. I trust them with some of the most important parts of my life and they never disappoint. Read Less

Great group of wonderful vets !!! No matter who comes on the emergency call, you know you and your horse are in great hands! When you have to go to the hospital, they are wonderful with all the human's emotions and tears! Dr. DeLisle, we thank you so much and so does Beau! Read Less

We are so blessed to have a world class state of the art facility like this at our back door. They have been amazing with all our herd, but take especially great care of our daughter's rodeo ponies! All the staff are great, but Dr. Matthew Delisle is fabulous! Read Less

I would like to commend Dr. Christine for her professionalism and compassion during a difficult experience. We recently had an aged horse down on the ice. Under Dr. Christine's care and direction we were able to rescue the horse after 4 hours of hard work. Despite all that had to be done to upright him, Tweety came through remarkably unscathed. Thank you, Dr. Christine, for your knowledge, dedication, and patience with the humans! :-) Read Less

I was referred to Tennessee Equine Hospital on Thursday 1-15-15 for a possible broken hind leg. I was told they would be out sat. to do x-rays. I explained that I was at least 1 hour 30 min. away and all my info was taken. When asked if I could bring him to them, I explained that could not load. I was assured that they could come out sat. On Sat I phoned them to see if they could give me time they would arrive. I was then told that they was not going to be able to come out, it was just to far to come. I then called another vet to come out to x-ray and was then told the tibia was completely into and pressing to the inside of the leg. The decision was then made to euthanize my horse. As a nurse this is unacceptable. If I had been told on Thursday that they was not coming out I could have saved my horse from unnecessary pain. I believe when you say you will do something, you do it. I guess that you have to live within walking distance..... Read Less

I just want to say that I have lived in Tennessee for a year now and I haven't found a vet that I really "loved"... My horse was colicing this morning and I just happened to call TEH. Dr. Kara came out to treat my horse and she is fantastic! She got back to me by phone right away and came out to me very quickly. She was kind to my horse and very knowledgable and thorough. I can't thank you enough for coming out and taking such great care of Honey. I would definitely recommend them any time! Read Less

I've toured several horse hospitals and this equine hospital is state of the art and located in a beautiful setting in Middle Tennessee. I was especially impressed with the staff, the surgical facility and the padded floors for the horses. This facility has a really good Lameness Evaluation Practice. I would recommend it to anyone looking for quality equine care and expertise. Dr. Monty McInturff has done a remarkable job with this place. Read Less

Excellent experience. We brought my horse in for an impaction colic that was quickly progressing to him being extremely wobbly and unable to stand for even a second without going down. We were greeted, 9:30 at night, by Dr. Kelly and four techs. Even though we came in for colic, she immediately did a quick neurological/coordination test as well. She explained every step of the process -- from what was showing up on the ultrasound, what was normal/abnormal about his blood levels (these were taken immediately and were very helpful to have on hand), what she was looking for during each procedure, and why she used the approaches she did. All of the techs were helpful and super nice. We left just before midnight and left the horse there. I was most impressed with the fact that they checked on him and the other horses hourly and wrote a brief synopsis each hour (TRP, resting state, etc.); one of the techs showed me his hourly log before we left. They were able to see that he started going downhill about 3 in the morning, which is something I feel may have been life-saving if he had been at a facility without this level of care. We weren't able to come pick him up until after 8 the next night, which was perfectly fine with them -- the techs live above the stables. They hand-grazed him for about ten minutes every hour until we arrived. Dr. Kelly provided me with follow-up directions about re-introducing him to hay and grain, and also called me the next day to check in and answer a few questions. This was my first experience with Tennessee Equine, but I was highly impressed. Everything was very professional but not at all impersonal -- something that sometimes comes hand-in-hand with a facility of this size and caliber. I have recommended them to everyone who has asked, and have been met also with stories of only good experiences from people who have also been there. I get the impression that this is a facility that understands our horses are not only athletes but are also family. I genuinely feel that this is the most thorough, professional, and well-staffed equine hospital in middle Tennessee.Read Less
