Question 1

What area do you service?

Accepted Answer

Centerline Equine services most of Dauphin county, portions of Eastern Perry county, Western Lebanon county, and portions of Northeastern Cumberland County.

We are based out of Linglestown and travel within a roughly 30-40 mile radius. We do not have a physical office or location at this time.

If you are not sure if we travel to your area, please reach out to us and ask!

Question 2

What do you recommend for annual vaccines?

Accepted Answer

CEVS follows the AAEP recommendations for core vaccines, which includes recommending all horses receive Rabies, Tetanus, and EEE/WEE/WNV vaccines annually. Other vaccines such as Potomac Horse Fever, Flu/Rhino, Botulism, Strangles, and Lyme are vaccinated according to "lifestyle factors" such as location and travel frequency. We have a handy vaccine guide available in our client resources here:

Question 3

How much does a visit cost?

Accepted Answer

Due to the wide area that CEVS covers and the many individual requirements of different horses, prices will vary based on location and what services are required, however we are always happy to provide a price quote prior to scheduling a visit.

Note: Emergencies or problem appointments are likely to have a wider range of potential cost due to the uncertain nature of veterinary medicine- as horses can't speak, we utilize diagnostic tools such as bloodwork, imaging, and stall-side lab tests to find the answers. While we strive to provide accurate estimates and update you throughout the appointment, things may change during the course of an exam. Please let us know ahead of time if you have specific financial concerns and we will do our best to work within those constraints.

Question 4

Do you offer breeding/reproductive services?

Accepted Answer

At this time, Centerline Equine does not offer breeding or reproductive services. We focus primarily on wellness, emergency, and sports medicine cases. We have a list of several other practitioners that we refer reproductive cases to in order to ensure your horse receives the best care, as they are better equipped to handle some of the specific problems faced by breeding operations.

Question 5

Do you see emergencies?

Accepted Answer

Yes, CEVS will see emergencies both after hours  and on weekends. While we do see non-client emergencies when available, we may have to limit our availability from time to time to clients who use us as their horse's regular veterinarian, to ensure that we are providing adequate coverage as part of our veterinary-client-patient relationship (VCPR) with those horses and their owners.

Centerline Equine strives to help fill the gaps in emergency coverage where available- we are very aware that there is a shortage of equine veterinarians in the area. As a result, there may be a significant delay in arrival time for emergencies. We will not leave you hanging, but please understand that if multiple emergencies occur at once, you may have to wait a little while for the most severe emergency to be seen first.

Question 6

What do you accept for payment?

Accepted Answer

We are able to accept cash, check, credit card, and venmo. If paying by credit card, we have the option of storing a card on file for future use, although this is not a requirement.

All payment is due at time of service, and we do not at this time accept care credit or offer payment plans.
