Ambulatory Services

Our ambulatory services are based from Oakham Veterinary Hospital and cover a large catchment area including Rutland, Leicestershire, Lincolnshire, Nottinghamshire and Northamptonshire.

We can provide routine and out of hours emergency services to the areas shaded in red.

Appointments can be made Monday-Friday between 8am and 5.30pm. Visits are charged from our base in Oakham, however we do offer a discounted visit rate to mid/north Lincolnshire and Nottinghamshire on Tuesday's and Thursday's. To make our service as efficient as possible we try to group local visits together to allow us to provide reduced visit fee’s to our clients. We will try to accommodate  requests for a specific vet but if an emergency call comes in, this is not always possible.

Our ambulatory team are all experienced vets and can provide a wide range of routine services at your premises. These include vaccinations, dentals, pre purchase examinations, import/export testing and reproduction work. We can also provide minor surgical procedures such as castrations and wolf teeth removal at your premises.

Our emergency service is available 24 hours a day, 365 days per year and includes a rotating team of vets, surgeons, interns and nurses. In the event of an emergency the ‘on call’ vet can provide prompt veterinary attention at your home. If your horse has a more serious condition it can quickly be referred and admitted to the hospital for specialist surgical or medicinal care.
