Where State-of-the-Art Technology Meets Old-Fashioned Care
TFB Equine strives to provide the latest technological and medical protocols while ensuring that you are informed and have a voice in the care of your horse. By understanding your horse's healthcare options, we believe you are able to make choices that best suit your horse's needs. It is the practice's goal to combine the latest in modern veterinary care with old-fashioned personal care and customer service. We have invested in the latest diagnostic technology and recommend many of these tests for the long-term well-being of each patient. As we continue to operate, we will enhance diagnostic capabilities to help improve each patient's life.
