In each issue of
Equine Matters
we feature a brief insight into a
selection of the XLVets Equine
Practices. Featured in this issue
are Minster, Cliffe and Thrums.
York, North Yorkshire
Minster Equine Veterinary Clinic is a specialist
equine practice with a superb reputation
providing quality professional care for horses
in numerous equestrian disciplines. We are
a highly experienced and qualified ten-vet
team holding six RCVS certificates in a
variety of disciplines, working from three
sites across Yorkshire. We have a regular
visiting consultant surgeon with over
30 years experience.
Our York clinic boasts excellent surgical and
medical facilities including 14 stables and an
in-house CEMO accredited laboratory. Our
branch practices are primarily ambulatory
providing services such as digital
radiography, ultrasonography, static and
overground endoscopy primarily to racing
thoroughbred clients but also those from other
equestrian sports. The Minster Equine Clinic
provides veterinary cover to the York
Racecourse, the Great Yorkshire Show,
3* British Eventing competitions and a variety
of Point to Point meetings and Hunter Trials
in North Yorkshire.
Our six dedicated equine vets provide high
quality care to horses throughout East and much
of West Sussex. Our modern, purpose-built
clinic has a large operating theatre for surgery,
including orthopaedic, colic and laser surgery;
hospitalisation facilities and a full range of
diagnostic equipment, including digital
radiography. We are well equipped to
investigate poor performance and carry out
lameness assessments. Cliffe Equine also
offers a complete stud medicine service and
is a BEVA registered practice for artificial
insemination (AI) for fresh, chilled and
frozen semen.
The Practice has two qualified Equine Dental
Technicians (one vet and one nurse) who
carry out routine and more advanced dental
procedures. If required, we can sedate your
horse to enable any work to be carried out
safely and to an excellent standard.
We offer a 24-hour referral service, particularly
for orthopaedic and medical problems, with
vets who have achieved a further qualification
in these fields.

Kirriemuir, Scotland
Lewes, East Sussex
Thrums Veterinary Group has been in
existence for over sixty years. The main
practice is based in Kirriemuir, close to the
scenic Angus Glens in North East Scotland,
with branches in nearby Forfar and
Blairgowrie. Our ten dedicated vets care
for equine, farm and companion animals.
We provide our own 24 hour emergency
cover and firmly believe that this is a very
important part of our overall service.
We are a first opinion practice, our equine
patients ranging from children’s ponies to
competition horses. Our equine team offers
a wide range of services from routine
vaccinations and dentistry, to lameness
investigations and pre-purchase exams.
We offer digital radiography, ultrasound
and video endoscopy. Our aim is to
provide a first class service to our clients
and their horses, offering prompt,
professional care and advice, whilst still
retaining a personal touch.
