ED:Ivan Stockdale ..Has anyone used him?

[_Jazz_]

Just to clarify I haven't as yet but he is the dentist they use at the yard. TBH Jazz has only had her teeth rasped annually by her vet and all appears well*touch wood* I'm just suspicious of ED

Please post or PM if not so good feedback ! Thanks

he travels down to m yard twice a year, the people who use him rave about him, but he won't take on any new people, well not here at least.

i havent used him myself but know people who have and they think he is brilliant. I used craig griffiths who trained with Ivan and he also is brilliant!!

Yes, he does all our horses and comes to our yard regularly. He's good and always willing to explain what he's doing & why.

He's excellent and really interesting as he explains everything he is doing. However, he is very busy and needs booking well in advance I know. I usually tag on when he comes to my friends yard. She books him 12 months in advance!

I used to have him but moved yards and then couldnt get him.

If you can get him grab him with both hands!!!

He's one of the best and you'll kick yourself if you pass him up and ever have teeth problems down the line.

He is brilliant, he actually does demos and teaches at the royal veterinary college. I wanted to have him but he couldn't fit me in his books, and it was his brother who asked for me. If you have the opportunity to use him then grab it with two hands!

For anyone who doesn't already know, Ivan is Tim's twin brother.

Well, lots of positive replies and no negative PM's

He sounds respected, A real THANK YOU to all for replying.

I'll admit it's not just ED that give me the jitters though

He used to be my EDT when I lived in the area! He's FAB!!! And if you haven't met him, be advised, he IS an identical twin to Tim!

We use him and hes fab, explains what hes doing and why. If you dont mind travelling, he comes to Leahurst every 3 weeks or so and spends the day there. Thats what we do and its alot easier to get hold of him then!

i have
i had hime for 5 years.
moved to a new area and the dentist said my mares mouth was not good-she had a big wave so her jaw wouldnt slide backwards and forwards)only side to side hence no issues eating!) and it would have started out and got worse since she was six when i got her.
she had to have them trimmed right down and have to say her mouthy issues when ridden are vastly improved(we struiggled with them for years-she was almost unridable at one point as she reared so much)
