Sparky’s done it! The winning most horse @HamiltonParkRC and breaking the 5 furlong track record under another brilliant ride from @PMulrennan !

Exciting news! 19 years after installing our standing MRI, we are now the only hospital in Scotland to offer both standing #CT & #MRI as a single package for the complete imaging of your horse’s distal limb.

Out with final year students doing a few racehorse dynamic endoscopies and while there they replaced a prolapsed uterus in a ewe. Adaptable, enthusiastic, and great communication…. future of the profession pretty safe in their hands. @TheDickVet @BVACPD

Today we delivered a two hour orthopaedic tutorial to 140 students, did two surgical colics and a CT guided @IMVimaging pedal bone fracture repair, plus much more and it’s early yet! It takes exceptional people and teamwork to achieve and maintain this. @TheDickVet @EdinburghUni

Infected hock joint to ease us into the weekend. Sometimes it’s the smallest wound that’s the most dangerous.

@mrdanwalker @5_News Personally prefer a tie. Coming from a profession that no longer wears a tie, it will be missed!

Hopefully that’s the final surgery of 2023 recovered and back in his stable! Wishing all our colleagues, clients and most importantly their animals a fruitful and healthy 2024.
