Google Review
Rob recently performed a pre purchase exam on a horse for me. His professional approach and friendly personality instantly assured me - the horse and I were in good hands.
Rob’s facilities are clean and fit for purpose - professionally designed.
Rob took the time to understand what my intentions were for the horse, how it would be ridden and kept and whether the horse would likely be sound going forward and with a heavier work load.
I couldn’t recommend Rob and Shepparton Equine Vets highly enough.
Super supportive, knowledgeable and generally really nice people to deal with.
I would 100% use their services again
