Everyone on the team is SO accommodating and helpful with our Dandy. They have always been willing to work with our incredibly busy and hectic schedules. I love that you can text them to schedule and ask questions and get a response usually within the hour/day. They have made our first experience as horse owners extremely easy and helped us with our "dumb" questions lol! Could not imagine a better service.

They always let us know if they are running late so we can adjust. They offer so many services from dentistry to foaling, making it easy to schedule what you need. Cannot express enough how kind and helpful everyone on their team is. So glad we found them when we did! Thank you South Shore!!!

I use to love SSEquine. but it seems all the best staff /Doctors are gone. We asked very kindly for them to not shave one of our horses under any circumstance. They told us they would not need to in anyway. Before we even get back to our farm we receive a call that he was shaved. not asking permission just doing it without owner consent. When we were upset the owner ( a male) called me and my coworker/horse owner ( both female) screaming at us.

I have heard about his ego losing business but to witness it first hand. Unacceptable. Later that night myself and two of my clients received unprofessional text messages from the office secretary. Overall seek a vet with less drama who doesn't feel entitled to do whatever they want to your horse without permission. There is a reason why all the big local barns, even five mins away, do not use SSEquine.

Patient, knowledgeable and responsive. The equine vets I've worked with at South Shore have been top notch, taking thorough care of my horse and answering all my questions. Very grateful for the entire team there!

Beautiful facility with amazing staff. They truly put the horse first and it shows. Sherri at the front desk is so helpful and knowledgeable I knew this was the place for me. Love the services they offer and the exceptional care they show to their patients and clients. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for the best care for their horse.
