Welcome to Sporthorse Veterinary Specialists

Sporthorse Veterinary Specialists is an exclusively equine practice, focusing on sports medicine and lameness. Our caseload is primarily performance horses, namely eventers, showjumpers and dressage horses.

Sporthorse Veterinary Specialists was founded by Dr Kirsten Neil in 2008, with the aim of establishing a dedicated sports medicine and lameness practice. As a registered specialist in equine medicine, with additional degrees in equine sports medicine and rehabilitation as well as lameness and imaging, Dr Neil understands the demands of the performance horse.
