Expert horse vets for all clients in Newdigate, Charlwood, Rusper, Capel, Beare Green, and other local areas
Surrey Hills Equine is a team of passionate equine vets committed to delivering the best care for horses and ponies in the region. We offer a full range of services tailored to every horse we see, from competition athletes to family pets.
Previously part of Priory Veterinary Surgeons, we became an independent practice in September 2023 under the leadership of Dr Corrado Montoneri. This enables us to maintain the same high level of service our clients are accustomed to, but with a more personalised and client-centric approach to equine care.
We know your horse's health and well-being are paramount, and we bring years of experience and a commitment to excellence to every interaction.
Our 24/7 ambulatory service is at the heart of our practice. Our expert veterinary attention is available when and where you need it most. Our mobile equine veterinarians are equipped with the latest diagnostic and treatment tools, enabling them to manage a wide range of issues at your yard.
Highly-experienced equine vets
Our team of experienced veterinary professionals have a deep understanding of equine health. We want to optimise the well-being and performance of every horse in our care, whether they are elite competitors in eventing, show jumping and dressage or pleasure horses and retired companions. Our services go beyond routine checks and emergency responses.
We do pre-purchase examinations to give you valuable information before you buy a new horse, lameness and performance evaluations to help your horse reach its full potential and advanced mobile diagnostic imaging for precise diagnoses. We also offer endoscopy and gastroscopy.
At Surrey Hills Equine, our philosophy is to build long-term relationships with our clients based on trust. We aim to enhance the health and performance of every horse in our care.

Worried about your horse's teeth? We offer specialist equine dental care in Charlwood
At Surrey Hills Equine, we specialise in horse dental care, knowing how important it is for overall health and performance. A horse's mouth is often overlooked but is vital for communication with the rider and general well-being. Undetected dental problems can hinder both performance and comfort.
Modern equine dentistry is primarily focused on prevention. We recommend dental checks every six to 12 months. This proactive approach enables our experienced team to identify and address minor issues before they escalate into major problems. Regular care is key to your horse's comfort and maximising their athletic ability.
We are fully committed to providing complete dental care for every horse in our care. Please take a look at our reviews to see what our clients have to say about us.

Other Equine Services in Surrey
Our horse vets can provide a complete range of services, including:
Lameness and poor performance
Lameness issues can inflict pain on your horse and cause concern and disruption for you as an owner. Our goal is to identify the cause of the problem and recommend suitable treatment to get your horse back to normal as quickly as possible.
The lameness investigation may involve various procedures, including the examination of your horse's conformation, movement, stride, and limb placement, flexion tests, palpation of the limbs and muscles, examination at walk and trot in hand and on the lunge, ridden examination, nerve or joint blocks, and X-ray or ultrasound.
Gastroscopy
Equine gastric ulcer syndrome (EGUS) is increasingly acknowledged as a common culprit behind various clinical signs, including poor performance, behavioural changes, reduced appetite, lacklustre coat condition, and discomfort during girthing.
All horses face the risk of developing ulcers, with contributing factors such as a high-carbohydrate diet, intense training or competition schedules, and stressors like illness or changes in routine, such as box rest.
Using a gastroscope, we can visually inspect the horse's esophagus, stomach and proximal duodenum to confirm the presence of ulcers. Since ulcer treatment can be costly, a thorough stomach examination through gastroscopy is recommended before initiating any treatment.
Mobile diagnostic imaging
Surrey Hills Equine employs cutting-edge portable wireless diagnostic imaging tools, including Digital X-ray systems, Ultrasound Scanners, and Video Endoscopy, delivered directly to clients' premises. This innovative approach allows us to provide the convenience of on-site examinations, eliminating the need to transport horses.
Our horse vets may recommend additional diagnostic imaging, whether it is for lameness investigations, pre-purchase examinations (vetting), dental or head-related concerns, or assessments of upper airways for respiratory conditions or Strangles cases.
Endoscopy
Endoscopy is a valuable tool for assessing the respiratory tract, especially in horses facing respiratory issues or exhibiting poor performance.
The procedure involves passing a flexible camera, known as an endoscope, through your horse's nostril, pharynx, larynx, and down the trachea, with the option to examine the guttural pouches.
