I wouldn’t take my horses anywhere else. They have done everything from a farm call to do a lameness check on my thoroughbred to a melanoma removal on our senior welsh pony in their clinic. The vet who discovered the melanomas (Dr.Aksten) personally texted me after surgery was complete just so I knew our little guy was up and in recovery. Dr. Bolam did the surgery and took off as much as she could to make sure our boy, Max, could live a more comfortable life. My daughters and I couldn’t be anymore happy with how quickly they got us in for surgery and how caring they have been during the whole situation. Not to mention, they have the most gorgeous barn/clinic and the entire staff if so professional. THANK YOU ALL!

Apr 18, 2024 · Emi LeakeWe used Piedmont Equine for an OCD lesion surgery and had an absolutely wonderful experience. Our mare had solid care the entire time she was there and the surgery was successful. Dr. Lynch was extremely easy to communicate with and we felt more than comfortable leaving her in his hands for this. I don't believe he's full time with Piedmont but he's excellent and if anyone needs a surgeon, I recommend him! Their administrative support side were lovely and very easy to work with to coordinate everything and the pricing was surprisingly reasonable!
Aug 16, 2024 · Alanna HolsteinBest vet practice around! Love everyone there.
Apr 02, 2025 · Casey AbrellI have been a loyal Piedmont customer since the early days. They provide excellent care, are solutions oriented, and care about the horses. They have a lot of expertise internally, which makes them virtually a one-stop-shop. My most recent experience is having them quarantine a mare for me and she is doing well with their quarantine set up. Would recommend.
May 24, 2024 · Rachel HowellMy daughter and her horse Cricket compete in eventing. Her horse has had her share of injuries as would any high-level athlete. But one situation is important. After a day of cross country schooling, Cricket went lame on her left fetlock. Dr. Bowman of Piedmont equine showed up the next day and gave us a choice of an aggressive treatment plan or one non-aggressive (shots vs. oral antibiotics). After explaining the risks, I chose aggressive since we’ve done 8 previous joint injections without issue – coupled with the fact that my daughter was preparing for the American Eventing Championships 8 weeks later. Two days after the injection, it was clear that something was wrong. We rushed Cricket to Piedmont for analysis. The doctors there determined that she had developed an infection in her fetlock, needed two weeks of hospital care, and would be out for 2-3 months. As soon as my daughter did the math and the tears started, I nearly lost it. Everything that they had worked for was lost due to an injection. It wasn’t until a few days later that we both calmed down. The real reason for my 5 stars for Piedmont is what Dr Bowman did. Feeling terrible about the outcome of the situation, Dr. Bowman came out almost every other day to check on Cricket and due to his care, concern and expert analysis, Cricket was able to recover in 4 weeks, resume work, and got back to where she was prior to the injury with time to spare. My daughter and Cricket were able to compete at AECs and 1 month later, place 2nd at the USEA Area 2 Regionals. None of this would have been possible without the care and concern of Dr Davis and the staff at Piedmont Equine. With all the varied types of injuries that can happen to a horse, we will still call Dr. Bowman and Piedmont equine first whenever anything happens to my daughter’s pride and joy.
