New equine service IVC Evidensia Equine Vets launched

There has been an increase in equine vets joining IVC Evidensia over the last year and a half. They have co-operated with the equine clinical board to form IVC Evidensia Equine Vets.

After a sharp increase in the number of horse vets, a group of businesses across the UK have begun a new equine service called IVC Evidensia Equine Vets. This was made in partnership with the establishment’s equine clinical board.

They claimed the Equine Vets brand would help improve communication and teamwork for teams in the group and the broader equine market.

There are now over 300 vets that are part of the IVC Evidensia Equine Vets network, extending from graduates to European specialists.
The equine team is divided into two, with one-half equine and the other being mixed practice. There are four dominant equine veterinary referral hospitals in the UK. These comprise Donnington Grove Veterinary Group, Fyrnwy Equine Group, Oakham Veterinary Hospital, and Pool House Equine, who support the practices.

Chairman of the IVC Evidensia Equine Clinical Board, Richard Stephenson, described how “Our network brings together all forms of equine work, from ambulatory practice to some of the leading UK equine referral centres. It gives support to all our staff in their careers. We facilitate clinical development from the graduate academy, through intern training, residencies and training up to European diplomate level.”
“We provide coaching and leadership, flexible roles and friendly, inclusive teams.”

IVC chief executive, Paul Cowling, said: “The equine clinical board is working on lots of projects to aid our equine teams in enjoying the freedom of the role with the support of our network.”

“I want to thank all our equine teams for their continued passion and clinical care for our nation’s horses, ponies and donkeys. Together we will make IVC Evidensia Equine Vets the front runner in equine innovation in the veterinary profession here in the UK.”
