Our program consists of spring and fall visits where we get to know you and your horse.
This relationship is vital in the event of an emergency or serious illness.
A thorough physical exam is performed where your horse lives. General body condition, body weight, mouth, eyes, ears, legs, feet, back, heart, lungs, and sand accumulation are evaluated. The feed ration is also reviewed.
Seasonally appropriate vaccines are administered and parasite control is discussed.
All findings and suggestions for management of your horse are discussed with you at the time of the visit.
You will receive a written report that includes findings and suggestions to help you maintain your horse's health and soundness and keep your ownership experience joyful.
At Reata Equine we understand the joy of caring for a horse. Our Wellness Program gives you the peace of mind that comes from knowing that you have a healthy and happy horse.
Peace of mind in knowing you have taken the steps necessary to keep your horse healthy,
Colic prevention: we review what you are feeding your horse to be sure he is getting what he needs. We also ask about feeding practices; check for sand accumulation; take the steps necessary for parasite control and perform a dental check. We can do all these things in a few minutes and dramatically reduce the chance of your horse becoming sick with colic
Protection from high emergency costs: if your horse is enrolled and in good standing* in the REATA WELL-CARE PROGRAM we will reduce the emergency call fee by $50 in the event that one of Reata's veterinarians needs to see your horse on an emergency basis.
We provide twice a year visits to review your horse’s health and administer seasonally appropriate vaccinations.
We get to know you and your horse, and give you the knowledge and tools to maintain your horse’s health and soundness. In the event of an emergency or serious illness our relationship can make all the difference.
The Reata office will call you spring and fall to schedule your horse’s visits. We will make every attempt to accommodate your schedule, so you can be at the visit if you choose.
Reata has three equine veterinarians to care for your horse. You may request the veterinarian of your choice and every attempt will be made to accommodate your wishes. We do like to have all of our veterinarians become familiar with all of our patients and their owners in case someone other than your usual Reata veterinarian is on call when your horse needs a veterinarian.
Joining our Wellness Program is a simple way to ensure your horse stays in the best possible health. Simply fill out the enrollment form and return it to Reata Equine Veterinary Group.
Reata Equine Veterinary Group is a full-service mobile equine-only veterinary practice in Southern Arizona dedicated to providing the best medical and wellness care for your horse.

If the emergency happens after hours, call (520) 749-1446 and the answering machine will connect you to the veterinarian on call so that you receive the help you need.
