Brilliant vet practice. When my previous vet had been telling me to ride my horse 'and see what he's like' with his intermittent lameness (broken cannon bone!), Richard Stringer was recommended to me. Richard immediately diagnosed the problem and treated my horse with kindness and effectiveness. Same horse some years later with KS, again, outstanding service, treatment really having an effect and Phoebe in particular, is excellent. Really thorough, heaps of advice, always responds quickly. Highly recommend this practice.

Report
Stringer Vets Exeter trespassed on our property at 11pm. They proceeded to illegally put a horse down, this horse was under court order. Stringer vets then left the body lying in the field amidst the other two horses also on court order. The horses are seriously distressed and frightened. Stringer Vets Exeter are cruel and VERY inhumane!! The attached photos are distressing!!!!
