Mountain Point:
I was in the process of buying a horse and wanted some reassurance that the horse was of sound health. Scheduling the appointment was easy and the support staff was very professional and kind. Dr. Blaire came to the stables for a "pre-purchase" health exam, and spring vaccinations/worming. Her examination was very thorough inside and out, front and back, and all around the horse, so that she could determine a baseline and risk potentials on him. I was very impressed at how Dr. Blare and her help worked around the horse; checking tendons, joints, bones and muscle, eyes, mouth, etc. The health inspection took them about an hour and half from the time they arrived and finish. Their pricing was reasonable, and reports of the inspection are detailed and informative. I went ahead and purchased the horse knowing there was minor health risk.
Another well known clinic:
A month later I decided to purchase another horse, so that I would have two. I used a different, but well known clinic nearby for the same type of baseline health inspection. The veterinarian who came out was friendly enough, but his inspection with vaccinations/worming took not more than 15 minutes, they were 30 minutes late on arrival, and did not do the quality type of inspection on the Horse, nor follow-up with any written reports. He did not check hooves, tendons, leg bones and muscle at all, and could see that he was just in a rush to go.
When comparing the two companies services, professionalism, pricing and passion for their career of choice, it is obvious that Dr. Blaire and her team are who I will be scheduling for my horses. Read Less
