We serve primarily horses with some small ruminant and camelid clientele. Equine clientele ranges from backyard horses to upper-level show horses.

We enjoy collaboration and always aim to support one another. At Large Animal Medical Associates, we also strive for an excellent work/life balance. Our normal scheduled appointments rarely extend beyond 5pm. In addition, we work 4-day work weeks, and on-call is shared equally between the doctors.
