We offer a variety of orthobiologic treatments to help musculoskeletal injuries (ie tendons, ligaments and bones).

Lameness workups
We have a special interest in lameness and other musculoskeletal and orthopaedic issues. As an ISELP certified vet, Dr Espinar has extensive experience with the diagnosis, treatment and management of complex cases for performance and leisure horses across various disciplines.
Referrals + second opinions
We accept referrals and second opinions for cases from clients, other vets or insurance companies, whether this is to perform further examinations or diagnostics to ensure the horse has the correct diagnosis or discuss alternative treatment options.
If you are a vet wishing to refer or simply to ask us for advice on an existing case, please feel free to contact us.
Poor performance investigation
We offer investigations, treatment and advice for poor performance issues. This includes horses with pre-existing conditions that may require medical management, from arthritis and soft tissue injuries to PPID (Equine Cushing's disease), asthma and EMS (Equine Metabolic Syndrome).
Export Health Certificates
As an OV (Official Veterinarian) for equines, Dr Espinar is permitted to work on behalf of the UK government to check and certify horses travelling abroad and for completion of Export Health Certificates.
Gait analysis
Our Equigait ® gait analysis sensors detect asymmetries in the horse's body movement as well as forces of each limb (both when weight bearing and pushing off during the stride). This enables us to detect even subtle lameness. When coupled with Dr Espinar's knowledge of the equine locomotor pathology, the gait analysis can be a useful complement to physical examination.

Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (ESWT)
Shockwave therapy is used in equine orthopaedics to treat conditions such as proximal suspensory desmitis. It is non-invasive and uses sound waves to stimulate healing of the injured area. Effects include an increase in blood flow, a direct cellular effects, activation of bone healing, and analgesia.
We also offer Class 4 & 3B Veterinary laser therapy.
