Practice strengths and emphasis of the business:
|
Our emphasis focuses on preventative care, continuously working on protocols for vaccinations, treatments, reproduction management, nutrition, cow comfort, mastitis prevention, transition cow management, and calf raising for dairy and cow calf operations. Small animal services continue to grow, as we expand our surgical offerings to include orthopedics along with standard small animal medical and surgical skills. We have a strong team that can lean on each other, we understand the importance of family, and we support the local community. Buy-In potential is available for the right candidate. |
| Practice Area: |
Vibrant agricultural community with family dairy farms from 50 cows to 2500 cows, and cow-calf producers from small hobby farms to 500 cows. We also work very hard to provide the highest valued small animal services to our clients that a busy cow oriented practice can. There are ample opportunities for hunting some of the largest whitetail deer in Iowa and fishing in the abundant trout streams that feed the nearby Mississippi. LaCrosse, WI is about 45 minutes away for those who need to shop or enjoy bigger city nightlife. |
