We travel the UK, visiting horses, donkeys, farm animals, goats and others

We treat all classes of ponies and horses, for all types of problem. We have a special interest in backs, laminitis, navicular syndrome, lameness, headshaking, skin disease, sweet itch, mud fever, COPD, saddling, diet and general welfare.

We visit equine patients anywhere in the UK and have visited in Denmark, Sweden, Germany, Ireland and France, although the Midlands, East Anglia, South Wales, the West Country, the South of England and the South East are the areas visited more commonly.
 
Our holistic approach leads us to examine closely all details such as feeding, grazing, saddling and shoeing, in our attempts to maximise healing. In this way, many serious and intractable diseases and pathologies can resolve, often defying a poor prognosis. All patients are given natural dietary advice and are offered chiropractic manipulation.
 
We treat all types of farm animals, including cattle, pigs and sheep, providing a nutritional and preventive medicine service to organic farmers and those planning conversion, in addition to caring for more 'conventional' farms. We offer a discount to bona fide members of the Soil Association, for farm work.

We help institute welfare and health programmes and advise on any aspect of livestock management.

We treat donkeys, buffalo, goats, llamas, poultry and others, on the same basis.

For further information, visit: www.alternativevet.org (now back 'live', after a time of absence).
 
We visit anywhere in England and Wales but nowhere in the UK, Ireland or Mainland Europe is automatically excluded.
 
N.B.: We cannot treat notifiable diseases in the UK without official dispensation from DEFRA.

Herbal medicine is generally very safe but several warnings are appropriate:
1. Herbal medicines may leave food residues or taint, in farm animal products.
2. Herbal medicines may fall foul of 'doping' rules, in sporting animals.
3. Herbal medicines may not always be compatible with concurrent drug medicine.
4. Herbal medicines can 'summate' with conventional drugs, leading to the possibility of effective 'overdose'.
 
Veterinary advice is essential.
