Fantastic vets, highly recommend! All staff are so friendly, knowledgeable and helpful and really about your horse and you as an owner. They go out of their way to help and aid you and your horse and put you at ease. If I could get 10 stars plus I would!

I have used fuller equine since 2020 now after being totally let down by another vet. Alex took on a case half way through investigation and got us a full diagnosis within his first visit. I have had unfortunately several other issues with my horses and all have been resolved by fuller equine I have zero complaints. From the office staff to all the vets, everyone communicates well and you know they are all for the horses. They go above and beyond everytime, even organising the cremation of one of my horses when I was too upset to and then sent out a card after. Truly wonderful people and a wonderful team

I have had my horses with Fuller Equine for a number of years. The whole team are very professional and have shown outstanding care and support to my horses and myself. The office staff are always knowledgeable, polite and helpful. Alex, Kirsty and Magda are very professional, knowledgeable and compassionate. I have always had excellent advice from the team at Fullers and they show genuine care for the horses they look after and do over and above for you. Plus their communication skills are very good. Very happy with this family based practice.
