"Back Man" - North West

[Chloe..x]

Hi all,

I have tried my best to get an appointment with Mark Windsor at Ashbrook but as I'm a teacher I could only do holidays. I get him booked in for this Friday then they ring two days later to say he is no longer running that clinic.

I've had the vet out and vet isn't convinced there is anything wrong however gut is telling me something isn't right.

I would insist that the vet does x rays. I have known three horses treated by physios which had undiagnosed kissing spines, one so bad it was immediately put down. The physios (three of them) missed all three cases.

Wright and Morten and Agnew Equine will both do back x rays on demand. One at Somerford, the other at home. I'm sure Ashbrook will too, you need to insist.
