Our equine hospital also handles emergency surgery, including colic. Our equine vet surgeon understands that colic is a time-sensitive issue and is ready to operate on your horse as soon as both of you arrive. We also recognize the fact that horses are capable of sustaining traumatic injuries of all types. Dr. Thal has extensive experience in cleaning up wounds, removing bone fragments, and suturing wounds back together for the best possible outcome.
Dr. Thal is more than an equine vet surgeon. He’s also a recognized expert in performance horse lameness and performs pre-purchase exams for English and Western performance horses. The clinic grounds are designed for both types of examinations and Dr. Thal uses the latest in technology to assess the soundness of a horse. He can provide a comprehensive evaluation of a horse’s current physical condition and its ability to perform now and in the future.
Our team at Thal Equine is committed to providing quality surgical care and recovery for each horse that comes to the clinic for a procedure. Our equine hospital is equipped with the latest in technology and our equine vet surgeon stays up to date on the latest in surgical techniques for the best possible outcome after a surgical procedure.
