Foxhall Equine offers a comprehensive range of equine surgical services, with a focus on standing procedures and a commitment to precision, safety, and patient comfort. Our surgical team is equipped to manage both routine and complex cases with a high standard of clinical care.
Every surgical case is approached with a detailed pre-operative consultation to ensure appropriate planning and client communication. Post-operative care is closely managed with individualized treatment protocols, and many patients transition directly into our in-house rehabilitation program to support a full and efficient recovery.
