About Us
Vermont Large Animal Clinic was founded in 2001 by Dr. Philip D. van Harreveld and is located in Milton, Vermont. The Hospital supports the ambulatory practice that has grown to 6 full time veterinarians. The ambulatory practice covers the geographic area of Northwestern Vermont. The ambulatory practice is focused on performance horses, reproduction, dentistry, preventative medicine, and general equine medicine and surgery.
Lameness diagnosis and treatment is a primary focus of the practice. Radiography is performed in the hospital or in the field with one of 2 portable X-ray machines. We also offer digital radiography services in the hospital and in the field. Large numbers of radiographs are taken annually in conjunction with ultrasound, diagnostic nerve blocks and physical exams to handle the lameness case load. Video endoscopy is available for the evaluation of upper airways of performance horses and airway abnormalities in the general population. Endoscopy of the stomach is also routinely performed at our facility for the diagnosis of gastric ulcers, a common ailment that affects many horses. The clinic also offers acupuncture, a form of Chinese medicine that has been used in veterinary practice for approximately 3000 years.
