West Ridge Equine Vets: Dedicated Care for Every Horse

When it comes to your horse’s health, you want a veterinary team you can trust — one that combines expert knowledge with a deep understanding of what horses need to thrive. At West Ridge Equine Vets, we are proud to offer dedicated, professional care to horses across the Southwest, providing a full range of equine veterinary services delivered with care, compassion, and expertise.

A Practice Built for Horse Owners

West Ridge Equine is a practice founded specifically to meet the unique needs of horse owners. Whether you have a leisure pony, a competition horse, or manage a busy yard, we understand how important your horse’s health and welfare is to you. Our entire team — from vets to support staff — shares a passion for equine care, and we work closely with owners to provide practical, honest advice alongside the highest standards of veterinary treatment.

We believe that great veterinary care is not just about treating illness, but about preventing problems before they arise. That’s why we take a proactive approach, offering routine health checks, vaccinations, dental care, and tailored healthcare plans designed to keep your horse in the best possible condition year-round.

Comprehensive Services Under One Roof

Our services cover every aspect of equine veterinary medicine. From advanced mobile diagnostics that bring x-ray, ultrasound and endoscopy directly to your yard, to complex lameness investigations and reproductive care, we have the equipment and expertise to handle a wide range of cases without the need to transport your horse unnecessarily.

For those purchasing a new horse, we offer thorough pre-purchase examinations to help ensure peace of mind before making an investment. Our vets carry out detailed assessments, supported by the latest diagnostic tools, to provide a clear picture of the horse's health and suitability for your needs.

We also provide international horse shipping services, managing the veterinary side of export health certificates, testing, quarantine arrangements, and more. Our goal is to remove the stress and complexity of overseas transport, keeping the process simple and safe for both horse and owner.

An Experienced and Passionate Team

Our veterinary team brings years of specialist experience in equine medicine, and continually stay up-to-date with the latest advancements and techniques. Every member of staff shares a genuine love for horses and a commitment to delivering outstanding care, whether we’re responding to a routine call or an emergency.

We take pride in building strong, long-term relationships with our clients, offering continuity of care and personalised service. Many of our clients have trusted us with their horses for years, knowing they can count on our honest advice and practical support whenever needed.

Putting Your Horse First

At the heart of West Ridge Equine Vets is a simple philosophy: putting your horse’s welfare first. Every horse is treated as an individual, with careful attention to their specific needs, lifestyle, and discipline. Whether we’re treating a top-level sport horse or a much-loved companion pony, we give every patient the same high level of attention and care.

We know how stressful it can be when a horse is unwell or injured. That’s why we make clear communication a priority, ensuring owners are fully informed, supported, and involved at every stage of treatment. Our friendly team are always happy to answer questions, provide updates, and explain options in plain, honest language.
