We carry out a wide variety of operations in our two operating theatres at Bilsen Equine Clinic. We specialize in orthopedic operations such as arthroscopies, OCD resections (“chip operations”), arthrodeses, carpal tunnel operations, fasciotomies, fetlock ring ligament surgery, grip bone (partial) resection, hoof surgery, osteosynthesis, tendon surgery or perivascular sympathectomy.
Standard operations such as castrations, eye operations etc. also take place at Bilsen Equine Clinic regularly.
