Preventive Care

Dental Care
With proactive veterinary care, horses can live well into their late 20s and early 30s. In fact, the average life expectancy for most horses is now between 28 and 33 years. Basic senior wellness care includes dental care, balanced...
Comprehensive Examination
The next part of the exam is the “active flexion test”, which is flexion of the joints followed by jogging. It is acceptable for the horse to move stiffly or lame for a few steps after the flexion. The question is whether the horse is comparable side to side, and how long it takes to warm out of the flexion. It is used as an indicator of a potential problem that may need to be radiographed or evaluated further. Radiographs (x-rays) are routinely taken as part of the pre-purchase exam. A full set of x-rays gives you valuable information by which to base the purchase decision, a baseline for that particular horse and a basis for later arguing that x-ray findings in the horse have been unchanged over a period of time. There are some other pre-purchase tests that can be done if needed or warranted.

Illness Treatment

Parasites Treatment and Control
If you are a long time horse owner, you may be familiar with traditional parasite control strategies. Traditionally, the most common parasite control approach called for horse owners to deworm their horse year round every six to eight...
Pain Management
FES, or Functional Electric Stimulation, is a physiotherapy treatment performed using the EquiNew FES device developed by Dr. Sheila Schils. This physiotherapy helps improve and restore normal muscle function and provide pain relief. It can be applied to the neck, back, and pelvis and is very beneficial for reducing inflammation and reversing muscle atrophy. In horses with underlying back problems, FES therapy is especially useful to re-educate the muscle memory, improve range of motion, and reduce scar tissue and adhesion formation.

Infection Treatment

Bacterial and Viral Infection Treatment
Thrush is a bacterial infection, and one of the most common diseases, affecting horses’ hooves. You will likely know it when you see — and smell — it. The pungent, tar-like black discharge collects in the sulci, or grooves, along the...

Laboratory Services
Intuitive skills of the veterinarian to find any lameness and medical problems. The first part of the exam is the clinical part. The horse’s eyes, heart, lungs, gastrointestinal and musculoskeletal systems are evaluated. This is also when the blood work will be done. Typically, this will include the Coggins Test and screening for any medications in the bloodstream that could significantly affect the horse at the time of the examination. Next, the “moving” part is started. The horse is examined at a walk and trot on a straight, flat surface. Then, he is moved on a lunge line and/or under saddle at a walk, trot and canter, usually on firm footing with a good surface. Any indication of lameness is evidenced by a head bob or a body drop from one side to another.
X-Ray
In the spring of 2002, Virginia Equine Imaging introduced digital radiography to its growing list of new imaging technologies. The DR system is manufactured by Sound-Eklin Medical Systems who is dedicated to delivering the world’s finest direct digital radiography and image management systems to equine veterinary practices. VEI was the first veterinary clinic in the world to utilize this technology.

General Pet Care

Senior Pet Care

Equine Vet
Dr. Caldwell had an interest in animal welfare from a young age, but his passion for veterinary medicine didn’t truly take off until adulthood when he began working with an equine veterinarian from his home town. He fell in love with the horses, the people, and the lifestyle and it has been his goal to improve as an equine sports medicine and imaging specialist ever since. Outside of work, you can find Jack snowboarding out west or simply hanging with his family just outside of the DC area.
