A RYEDALE equine veterinary practice has been nominated for three awards at an industry awards show.

Rainbow Equine Hospital in Malton is up for two Vet of the Year nominations for Moses Brennan and Ieuan Pritchard, and Practice of the Year. The nominations are for the Petplan Veterinary Awards 2017.

Lorraine Colgan, at Rainbow Equine Hospital, said: “We are delighted to have the three nominations. We have had vets nominated for the past few years and it’s nice that our clients take the time to think of us.” The winners will be announced on April 7.

The veterinary centre is also now able to offer diagnostic imagine after a staff member gained new qualifications. Ms Colgan said: “Only a handful of private equine hospitals in the UK have a specialist radiologist to perform MRI, CT and scintigraphy."
