I appreciate the professionalism and expertise from all of the staff at Performance Equine....and so does my horse!!

Dr Alfredo Lichoa Was very thorough and communicated quickly. I would highly recommend this veterinary service.

They go above and beyond. I’ve had two horses with special cases and this team worked hard to go the extra mile to identify the problem where others missed. I trust them to take care of my unicorns.

What an incredible experience under the most unfortunate circumstances! I reached out to your practice for a second opinion when I was told my 25 year old horse was in bad shape and I was being advised as to the “humane thing to do.” Colton came out and unfortunately, drew the same conclusion… He gave her a shot of Dexamethasone for her discomfort and I said “will this buy her some more time? And he kindly responded no, it is to buy you some more time.” That was on a Monday… by Friday that same week, Colton was back with his team to put my dear Lexi out of pain… The compassion and the professionalism of the entire team was absolutely heart warming!!! Though it was a horrible experience for me and my family, Colton and his team made it the most peaceful passing over “Rainbow Bridge” that I could have ever imagined! Thank you all for your kindness and your continued love and support!!! Lexi earned her wings and is flying high with all of the support from each and every one of you! Thank you again, warmest regards, Trish Button

Both Cowboy and I enjoyed our visit. Everyone was so kind and professional. My horse was not stressed at all. Dr Ramstrom was top notch in providing the best care and plan.

Dr. Lichoa is the nicest most caring man he knew what he was doing made me feel at ease with the situation, and I would definitely recommend him and use him again
Mindy A.

From a distance the clinic kept me updated and informed about my mare when she was having treatment! Dr Rullan knew the exact treatment plan that she needed. I highly recommend this clinic!
Jennifer B.

We love these vets! They work together as a team. We have a performance horse who likes to drag her back legs sometimes. We had her xrayed and lameness tested. They found a fragment in her stifle. That meant a possibility of surgery! Instead of scheduling that, they did more test to make 100 percent sure if it was affecting her or not. It was not at all so they said no need to touch it. In the future hock and stifle injections but until then she is great. We appreciate the time and care they all had invested in this beautiful mare of our. She’s 100% sound and just likes to be lazy sometimes.

The Team at Performance Equine worked very hard to ensure all my needs and questions were covered in my pre-purchase vet check for our horse, Justinus (Fluffy). Dr.’s Alberto and William Rullan helped to guide me through their findings and recommendations to give me the information I needed to make an informed decision. The follow through with a recommendation and subsequent execution of joint maintenance injections for our new family member to help make him as strong and comfortable for my Daughter to have the best experience possible with her new best friend made the entire process quite complete. I will most certainly leverage them for future veterinary needs.
Armando T.

Dr. Lichoa and the staff are wonderful. They patiently answered all my questions and called me at least 4 times over the next ten days. Who does that? I am truly impressed and Dr. Lichoa even gave me his number if we need him. Amazing and timely service.
