Practice Overview
Dr. Corale Dorn started this practice in 2006 and we have seen tremendous growth in the area of dairy, beef feedlot and companion animal. We are a unique practice that services high-end dairy herds, beef herds and runs an AAHA accredited practice at the same time. We love serving our clients, but we also appreciate time off with each doctor averaging only 45 emergency calls total a YEAR. Our staff is second to none with a practice manager, 2 customer service reps, certified vet tech, bilingual herd health assistant and 2 vet assistants along with kennel attendants and cleaning staff to make your day easier. Our 8400 square foot facility boasts all the bells and whistles for equipment from 3 IBEX ultrasounds and digital x ray to surgery suites, doctor’s office with your own computer and in-house blood work. We have hydraulic chutes, hydraulic trim tables, Lane bull testing equipment, and fully stocked vet trucks with Bowie vet boxes. Our beef clients bring the emergencies and the bull testing to our indoor cattle facility so you aren’t living in your truck.
