During the 20 or so years they've cared for various horses of mine, the care they provide has always been knowledgeable and top quality. From routine teeth floating to tricky lameness issues, from cryptorchid surgery for my 2-y-o to end-of- life care for my 26-y-o, they have always kept my horses' well-being paramount. Read Less

I am so grateful for Tacoma Equine, and Dr Hagerman, Dr Howard and Dr Galen. I had been struggling with a lameness issue with my young mare for months and was considering putting her down if I couldn't find and fix the problem. The vets at Tacoma Equine brought patience and considerable knowledge to our issue and Found the Problem! Some shoeing changes and an injection and my little mare is going better than ever. I cannot thank Dr Hagerman and her staff enough. Read Less

Dr. Galen came out on an emergency visit for my horse's leg. Very personable and used terms I could easily understand. From the initial call, Roxanne, who answers the phone, kept me informed, though I had very poor reception at the barn. We tried everything short of smoke signals but she never lost patience. Had met Dr. Hagerman on a previous visit to our barn. Great group of ladies! All very caring, calm and friendly. Happy to have made the switch to Tacoma Equine! Read Less

When my Mini Donkey, Otis became ill I was referred to Tacoma Equine by my vet for my dogs. They were amazing! I mainly worked with Dr. Howard and occasionally Dr. Galan. They gave Otis incredible care. They always gave us a multitude of options so we could do what we saw fit for our family. They went above and beyond, constantly checking on him as well as us. After Otis had been well for about 2 months I received a text checking up on his progress. I will always use these wonderful ladies when it comes to my Mini Donkeys! Read Less
