I can’t say enough good things about North Bridge Equine Associates. We most recently worked with Dr. Cory, who was fantastic. Communication is excellent—clear, thorough, and never rushed. I especially appreciate how thoughtful and reasonable the treatment plan was, with a smart approach for both immediate needs and the long-term future. We’ve had great experiences with everyone at the practice and feel very confident in their care.
