Dr. Iverson and her team can help with a variety of equine wellness services. From dental care to thorough wellness exams, each horse is cared for as if they were their own.
Dental Care
Dental issues can have a significant impact on your horse’s overall health and performance. Common signs of dental issues can include dropping of feed, weight loss, behavioral issues, and problems with the bit. Annual dental exams and corrective floating are important in maintaining your horse’s comfort and health. Dr. Iverson is equipped with digital radiography, power dental tools, and tools needed to aid in minor extractions.
Wellness Exams and Vaccines
We are committed to providing top-notch, highly personalized care for your horse, thus preventing common equine diseases and problems. Iverson Equine Practice provides thorough annual wellness exams, as well as routine vaccines, helping to ensure that your horse stays in peak condition and able to do its job. During the wellness exam, Dr. Iverson will perform a thorough exam, discuss any of your concerns and review your horse’s nutrition plan.
Rehabilitation
Equine Prehabilitation (preventative care) and Equine Rehabilitation is critical in improving your horse’s performance.
