Dr. Mike Fox, Dr. Marty Ivey and Dr. Steve Hurlbert were friendly competitors at Trinity Meadows Racetrack when they decided to join forces. Their partnership became Equine Sports Medicine and Surgery, which in the beginning was simply a supply and billing office in Weatherford, TX, for treatment of the equine athlete. Their vision became our current state-of-the-art equine medicine and surgery facility which opened its doors in September of 2001.

Our Clients Say...
Dr. Reese Hand and his team (especially Alicia!) are amazing! I was referred to him from 12 hours away and would gladly make the trip again, without hesitation, if needed.
Amanda C.
Fantastic place, they took great care of my Senior horse (needed a cardiac workup). I was able to arrange it even while living in Australia - the vets were amazing and made everything easy.
Jessica S.
I took my Mare with a huge problem during the time that she was giving a birth her first Colt and they saved her life. The Customer Service was Great and very Friendly.
Jose V.
They did a wonderful job diagnosing and administering injections. Our Wlsh/Trakner pony had miraculously turnaround in his lameness. Prices were great.
Kimberlee N.
We took a horse I was considering to purchase there for a pre-purchase check up. Dr. Todd was fantastic, extremely thorough. Great, down to earth and highly professional practice.
Lisa M.
I'm very picky about my vets and so far I've been very pleased with all the vets here at this clinic. They are very informative.
Katie C.
Dr. Todd is first class. As a relatively new horse owner I really appreciate that he will take the time to really explain everything to me. He is professional and gracious with the horse and owner.
Shannon Z.
Emergency visit with my horse, Jasmine. Dr. Kimball and her vet techs were professional and kind. Unfortunately, Jasmine had to be put down. Dr. Kimball and her staff were extremely kind and caring for me and Jasmine throughout this difficult process.
