The Oaks offers the latest in equine radiography with a portable digital radiology system which allow our veterinarians to obtain excellent quality radiographs. Our veterinarians perform a large number of pre-purchase exams annually for a wide variety of equine clients. We offer basic pre-purchase exams to more extensive exams with flexion and radiographs.
Obstetrics and Reproduction
One of our goals here at The Oaks Equine and Farm Services is to provide high quality individualized care and attention to mares and foals during breeding and foaling season. We feel that this is the best way to maximize reproductive success. Please call us with questions regarding your specific needs.
Dentistry
Routine dental care is essential to your horse’s health. Our veterinarians recommend periodic examinations and regular maintenance, such as floating, to keep your horse's teeth healthy. With proper dental care your horse will be more comfortable, will utilize feed more efficiently, may perform better, and may even live longer.
Chiropractic and Acupuncture
Chiropractic care is a manual therapy which focuses on dysfunction of the spine and its effect on the nervous system. It can be used for a variety of problems as well as a prophylactic treatment to maintain optimum health and fitness.
