All examinations performed away from our office will incur a call out fee. This can be shared between clients on the same property. The fee varies from $35-$80 for the Mornington Peninsula.

Clients may prefer to purchase medications from an online pharmacy. To do this the following conditions will need to be met for this to happen:

1. We need to have seen the horse in question for the condition the medication is used for in the previous 3 months.

2. You will be required to contact the clinic regarding the prescription.

3. We will then email a form via docusign to complete. For this form you will need to details of the pharmacy including email address, and postal address.

4. There is a fee of $75 for this prescription.

5. We will email the pharmacy within 2 business days of receiving the completed prescription request document, and post a hard copy of the prescription direct to the pharmacy.

A prescription will be provided offering at a maximum 6-12 months treatment. After this time a repeat examination and prescription will be issued. Blood tests may be required based on the condition being treated which is at the discretion of the examining veterinary surgeon.
