Fakenham, Norfolk
Markeaton, Derbyshire
Wensum Valley Veterinary Surgeons is a
four vet equine and farm practice based
at Fakenham Racecourse. Our modern
premises were purpose built eight years
ago. The practice has medical and
surgical facilities on site with digital x-ray,
ultrasound units for soft tissue imaging and
fertility work, video-endoscope, shockwave
as well as paddocks and stabling. The
practice has a great interest in equine
dentistry and all the vets carry out routine
dentistry as well as corrective dentistry
using power tools.
We are a first opinion practice and are
equally happy seeing donkeys, ponies and
competition horses. We will work from the
cars as well as seeing cases at our clinic.
Summerhill Veterinary Centre is our sister
practice with five dedicated small animal
vets based in the town centre.
Partners David Feneley and Toby Kemble
also provide veterinary cover at Fakenham
Racecourse.
