South Side Equine Clinic

Love this clinic and it's staff! Dr Bradley is so kind and attentive to his patients and their owners. Always easy to get a hold of and always willing to help however they can. Can't say enough great things about Dr Bradley and his staff! 5 stars from us!

One year ago today I took my Suffolk Punch part Draft Horse into Southside equine for the earliest emergency appt. My horse had all the symptoms of PHF, we asked him to test for it and repeatedly said he could have Potomac Horse Fever! He focused on my horses teeth and said he was going to pull all his front teeth on Friday Aug.12, 2022. He would not test for it or take our opinion in consideration and while my horse was under his careAug.10-12th I was told he was going to check on my horse after Dr. Bradley was done with field work on the 11th his assistant said before he closed at 5pm. I was with my horse 6pm-11pm (11th) nobody showed then I showed up at 7:30am on the 12th my horse was kicking at his stomach I called him for an emergency and no answer I left a message they started showing up 8:05am I asked Dr. Bradley if I should go to a Rogue or OSU because he wasn't getting the help there. Dr. Bradley Yelled at me telling me he only had 10mins to spend with his family and he needed time to look at my horse. Cruiser was the Love of my Life. I wish he would have listened to my mother and I from day 1 or day 2 .I could still have had my heart horse. We left at noon on the 12th to go to OSU and I spent 10k trying to save my horse he died Aug.19,2022 from the Potomac Horse Fever and Laminitis for not being treated Correctly....Here is some education You have to treat PHF within 3 days with Oxytetracycline in a drop saline bag. It turns into Laminitis which they can get better from but untreated in a timely manner if the horse rotates it's fatal. When you become a veterinarian or doctor your family should know what the work is. It's about saving lives and being Compassionate. I personally think Dr. Bradley should only practice in dental work. That seems to be what he specializes in. I wish Rogue was available or I would have gone there first.

ETA: I got a phone call this morning from Dr. Bradley. He was very apologetic about the mix up and went above and beyond to make the situation right, which included getting me back on the schedule quickly for a PPE and reimbursing the fee I paid to have the horse hauled to the clinic. I appreciate the effort to make the situation right. I will write an updated review after the appointment. Had a pre purchase exam scheduled for 8/3 at 1pm. Made the appointment a week in advance and called 30 minutes before the appointment to let them know we had trailer hook up issues and would be running 10-15 minutes behind. They said it was no problem as they were behind schedule as well. When we arrived they told us we were not on the schedule at all and they couldn’t do a PPE today. They wasted my time, the sellers time, and the cost I paid to have the horse hauled to the clinic. A disappointing experience to say the least.

Dr. Bradley was so compassionate when my friend had to put down her horse of 31 years. I called to become a client and the person that answered the phone was very rude and stated they aren't taking new clients after I asked about his experience with miniatures and dyscotia.

We have had to use them a few times in short amount of time. So friendly and very reassuring . Called back fast on after hours call. Wonderful vets. I have seen and trust that my horses get the best of care. If I could rate higher I would! I highly recommend.
