Your horse is more than an investment — it's a lifelong relationship between rider and animal. Knowing this, we at Winner's Circle Equine Veterinary Service, your equine veterinarian in Ocala, FL, offer a list of questions to consider when choosing a veterinarian for your horse to keep it in peak condition.

Is the Equine Veterinarian Near You?

Location is essential when choosing a horse vet. How far is the clinic from where you stable your horse? How long would it take for a veterinarian to reach your location? Proximity can mean the difference between immediate care and a problem worsening because of the time it takes to travel.

Dr. Marcus Harden, DVM, serves Ocala, FL, and the surrounding areas. Call our office to get specific details about farm calls and scheduling.

What Services Does the Equine Veterinary Specialist Offer?

An extensive list of services is a bonus when looking for a horse vet. You never know what kind of emergencies may arise or what issues your horse may need to be addressed. A veterinarian with the tools and technology to perform diagnostics, labs, radiology, dentistry, ultrasonography, and more is an absolute must.

Does the veterinarian you're considering offer holistic approaches as well as traditional ones? Methods like acupuncture and chiropractic care can enable your horse's body to heal itself and reduce inflammation.

Another thing to consider is the age of your horse. Choose one with experience dealing with that particular stage of life. Will your horse be racing or used in sports? Equine sports medicine should be at the top of your list. Are you looking to breed your mare? A veterinarian experienced in obstetrics is a must. Is your horse enjoying retirement? Elder care will be necessary.

An affordable equine veterinarian will offer budget-friendly solutions to care for your horse without sacrificing quality of care. 

Winner's Circle Equine Veterinary Service checks all of these boxes and more!
