We also provide more advanced treatments on site, such as laser surgery and some spinal and orthopaedic procedures with the help of traveling equine vets, who are wanting to teach our team, continuing to expand our experience base.
Rota Patterns To Suit You
We offer flexible working patterns that flex with you and your lifestyle.

Company
The Practice, previously known as Taylor and Lees, extended from its original site in Sudbury town centre to its current location in 1990 under the guidance of Robert Lees. The practice has since expanded to employ eight veterinary surgeons, two equine veterinary nurses (EVN’s) and twelve lay staff. The new office, reception facilities and five further in patient stables were built in 2003 and a horse walker was installed in January 2009. Work has just been completed on a new building in the southern corner of the yard with a purpose built examination room and living accommodation above. The Clinic has been recognised as a Tier 2 (Equine) practice; this is in recognition of attaining a set level of standards and quality.
