Four Winds Farm & Equine Hospital

Four Winds Equine Hospital, located at Four Winds Farm, focuses on the special needs of both the serious equine athlete and the beloved family companion. The facility offers convenient 'ship-in' capabilities as well as farm call services. The hospital stalls and treatment areas are located separately from the horses boarded at the farm in order to treat immediate needs and offer seclusion for the recovering patient. The owner, Dr. Kim Braeutigam has been in practice since 1979 and has operated the hospital since 1995. Four Winds Equine Hospital is widely known for lameness diagnoses and follow-up treatment. In addition, the hospital offers routine care and services, along with many elective surgeries through M.E.S.A
