Item Description

Rhinebeck Equine LLP is an exclusively equine practice located in Dutchess County about 120 miles north of NYC, in the Hudson River Valley. There are many larger sport horse farms, as well as boarding stables and backyard family barns. The strong New York Thoroughbred Breeders program has encouraged the growth of many Thoroughbred breeding farms in our practice area.

The practice provides ambulatory coverage in a 50 mile radius, but the majority of clients are within 35 miles of the office. Our hospital referral cases are primarily drawn from New York, Massachusetts, and Connecticut, though we have also seen cases from as far away as northern New England and as far south as the Carolinas.

This $400 gift certificate is for a gastroscopy for one horse with Dr. Laura Javsicas.

Dr. Javsicas grew up outside of Philadelphia, PA, where she enjoyed riding hunters and jumpers. She received a BA in Biology from Cornell University, where she was co-captain of the equestrian team. Dr. Javsicas then returned to Philadelphia to attend veterinary school at the University of Pennsylvania, where she was a classmate of Dr. Jim Nutt. After receiving her VMD in 2004, she did a one-year internship at the Hagyard Equine Medical Institute in Lexington, KY, which furthered her interest in critical care medicine and neonatology. Dr. Javsicas then completed a three-year residency in equine internal medicine at the University of Florida. Following her residency, she stayed on at the University of Florida as a member of the faculty. In 2009, she moved to Saratoga Springs, where she worked at an equine clinic providing in-hospital internal medicine services and general ambulatory care until joining Rhinebeck Equine in 2013.
