My vet, Georgina parkin, is as the song says ‘Simply the Best’ and she has looked after the Blue Chip Horses for 13 years.
It is great to know that with Georgina, I have an experienced, knowledgeable vet that really cares about my horses, and I wouldn’t trust the care of them to anyone else.

Trish Fretwell

I have been a client of Gem Equine for nearly six years, when my Welsh mare had Laminitis. The care and support that Georgie Parkin gave me through all of Peggy’s treatment was second to none. The portable X-ray machine was fantastic as Peggy had all her treatment on the livery yard, without the trauma of having to transport her to the vet , when she was in so much pain. Six years on, she is fit and well and enjoying life to the full.
I would not hesitate in recommending Gem Equine to anyone who is looking for an outstanding vet.

I have used Gem Equine since 2010 having been recommended by another vet practise. What a refreshing change to book routine appointments at a time that suits me and not be given a ‘time slot with a phone call’.
When my horse suddenly developed lameness Georgina Parkin came out straight away, with her mobile x-ray she was able to treat him in the comfort of his own stable, not having to transport him elsewhere and cause him unnecessary stress and anxiety. Gem equine are always at the end of a phone providing help and advice at all times of the day with nothing being too much trouble. I have been 100 % satisfied with the service I have received over the years. Gem equine may not be a large practise but they say that big things come in small packages and I can say that this family-run business certainly does that. I would have no hesitation in recommending Gem to any horse owner looking for a caring, professional, friendly service for the care of their equine companion.
