Valley Equine Hospital Lambourn Ltd is an RCVS Accredited Equine Hospital providing care for horses and ponies, with both ambulatory visits and hospital-based investigations. The website states a 24-hour emergency service (365 days a year), with out-of-hours calls handled by experienced veterinary nurses. Facilities mentioned include digital radiography and a standing distal limb CT scanner; reviews also reference horses coming in for scans and referral surgery, with owners describing twice-daily update calls during hospital stays and pre-/post-op discussions with the surgeon.
