However, he has the skills to see almost all production animal and equine based problems that you may have. Whilst aiming to provide a high-quality, personalised veterinary care to your beloved pet, performance athlete or production based system. In his spare time, Dr Lachie enjoys riding one of his off-the-track thoroughbreds, and pretending like he knows what he is doing.
