Medicor Veterinary Practice Statement
Medicor Veterinary Practice Ltd has been established 4 years, starting with a workforce of three, within a brief period, we have gained trust among our clients and their loved ones.
The clinic has earned a positive reputation, the workload has increased, the clinic’s workforce has grown from three to eleven.
Due to this success, we have outgrown our current premises in terms of accommodating our staff, existing and potential clients.
We have been asked numerous times about care that could be provided for large animals especially within equestrian community on the Isle of Man.
Currently there is no equestrian clinic & rehabilitation centre on the island. We are looking to create a world standard medical centre for small and large animals on our island that will allow us to help the animals locally without the necessity to travel to the United Kingdom.
Which not only comes at a great cost to the owners but also incredibly stressful on the already vulnerable animals.
To create such a facility, we need space and human resources, the new premises will allow us to fit in more diagnostic equipment for existing & potential patients.
Presently Medicor Vets is based in the countryside, we would like to remain in the rural surroundings as the rural location allow us to have a safe environment to exercise the animals in a controlled, safe, and adapted area.
The next step is to create a clinic that holistically treats patients. Until now our focus was only on small animals, the new location and the existing livery which stables fifty plus horses will give us the opportunity to provide a service for larger animals and especially equestrian needs. Kennaa Equestrian Centre is an established and well renowned horse business on the Island. Creating our premises at Kennaa would boost both businesses as clients of both often seek the consistency of the services and if possible, they would keep all their animals in one safe place. We are sure that both businesses complement each other. The necessity of the travel from the island to the United Kingdom facilities is an incredibly stressful journey both for people and their pets in normal circumstances. In case of medical condition, travel becomes a financial and logistic challenge. Therefore, we would like to expand our facility and create a clinic where we would introduce the services not available on the Isle of Man.
Our goal is to obtain a CT Scanner and MRI facilities that will allow us to introduce an advanced diagnostic centre, enabling us to introduce spinal and joint replacement surgeries on the island.
We intend to create 4 consult rooms and 3 surgical wards for small animals and a bespoke equestrian clinic to accommodate space for 2 vets and a stable for stationary treatment for horse patients.
The rural location would be ideal as space is needed to allow the rehabilitation and exercise for horses.
Existing facilities already accommodate horses that need this exercise. Additionally, more complex surgical interventions on horses cannot be done outside of a hospital environment, we will provide this service with specialised equipment. Kennaa Equestrian Centre is an ideal location, it is central on the Island, and it is easy to find, and the centre has a positive reputation with animal owners. The access is well established from the main road and there is enough space to accommodate clients & staff of equestrian centre and the proposed veterinary practice.
