COVID-19 Update. Please click to find out more.
I am taking the spread of the Coronavirus COVID -19 outbreak very seriously. My number one priority is not only the health and wellbeing of my customers, myself and my family, but also the general population at large in all the decisions I am making.

I am trying to observe 2m social distancing wherever possible, so please try to keep your distance. Please ensure only one person is in attendance for your appointment. I am happy to handle your horse/s alone, please allow me to do this, I will explain clearly what I am doing as usual. If you could present your horse in a head collar that would be most helpful. I am happy to set up and clear away my own equipment, please do not try to help. As always, I will be wearing gloves, and mask and using high level surface disinfectants. Your understanding in joining with me as part of the National effort to minimise transmission of COVID -19 is greatly appreciated.

I am part of the team at Hambleton Equine Clinic working there on Mondays and Wednesdays in an ambulatory and a hospital based role.

What my clients say

A true horseman, Mark took the time to gain the trust of my very suspicious, aged Welsh Cob. He then did a thorough and professional job - very much appreciated - by both me and pony!
Jennie, Cumbria
Mark explained what he was doing every step of the way and treated my horse with great respect. He highlighted the problem areas, showed me them and then dealt with them effectively, giving my horse little breaks when he felt necessary. He filled me with confidence, something that both a previous dentist and the vet have not done. I will be making a note in my diary to book him in 12 months and have highly recommended him to other horse owners already. Extremely happy horse owner ..!
Libby, North Yorkshire
Best Dentist ever. Great with horses and clients. Top Man. Xxx
Pammy, Midlothian
Throughout all the years Mark has been attending to my horse(s) he has been unfailingly professional in every aspect of his service: he's thorough, informative, thoughtful, constructive and helpful (as well as being very amicable). I really appreciate the time he takes to explain every aspect of what he is doing and why, and to answer any questions. Thank you again; see you next year!
