Lameness Diagnosis
OUR APPROACH
We take a proactive whole body approach to keeping your horse sound and pain free. We specialize in treating performance problems, solving difficult lameness cases and preventing injuries.
As riders and horse owners ourselves, we understand how devastating it is to have an injured horse and we work to get your horse back to peak performance as quickly as possible.
​
Our thorough approach to whole body soundness evaluation and treatment results in identifying problems early and preventing chronic injuries. Advanced ultrasound imaging and other diagnostics are used to get a complete diagnosis, since the most obvious lameness is often secondary to another problem.
​
We go beyond traditional sports medicine and combine the best of western medicine with spinal manipulation (chiropractic), myofascial therapy and acupuncture. We are committed to using cutting-edge regenerative medicine and we use a physical therapy approach to rehabilitation that optimizes the long-term health and performance of your horse.
​
If your horse has soundness issues, behavior problems that may be pain related, or is performing well and you want to prevent injuries, call us now and we will be happy to help!
CLIENT FEEDBACK
"I have been a client of Dr. Suzan Oakley for over five years as we collaborate to keep the horses feeling and performing at their best.
It is refreshing to have a veterinarian so thoughtfully and thoroughly work up any performance concerns including watching the horses under saddle and at shows. As a veterinarian myself, I feel so fortunate to have such a leader in equine ultrasound diagnostics and rehabilitation continually assessing my horses and safeguarding their performance futures."
