Dedicated Equine veterinary practice caring for all horses
from happy hacks to competitive horses across all disciplines.
The Fourways Equine Clinic is the largest single equine clinic in South Africa and as part of the Equine Care Hospital (Equicare) in Midrand, our hospital offers state of the art care to horses in need, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The Equicare facility was established in 2000 in order to combine the resources of a number of equine practices and like-minded veterinarians who purchased a suitable property and then designed and built a modern, well-equipped equine hospital facility.
The hospital has stabling for up to 16 inpatients. All stables are large and well ventilated. Stables for critically ill patients are equipped with 24 hour video surveillance so that they can be monitored at all times. Additional isolation stables, located on remote premises, are used for horses with infectious or suspected infectious diseases in order to prevent any disease transmission risk to other patients. If beneficial to their care, patients can be turned out in paddocks. Inpatients are looked after by our dedicated team of experienced veterinarians, including veterinary specialists, and grooms to provide round the clock care for our inpatients.
To provide professional, efficient and compassionate service to our clients and their horses 24/7.
