Equine Gastroscopy

A Gastroscopy Exam is a tool that allows us to perform a visual inspection of the various parts of the stomach.

Using the gastroscope to visualize the horse's stomach, we can observe the location and severity of stomach ulcers, that may be present. Gastroscopy allows us to make an accurate diagnosis and develop an appropriate treatment plan for your horse.
