B.W. Furlong & Associates and Mountain Pointe Equine Veterinary Services are pleased to share ship-in emergency services as the newest development of our Emergency Coverage Cooperative (Co-op)*  for our NJ practices. 

In order to continue to provide our clients with the best in timely veterinary care, you may be asked to ship your horse into the clinic at B.W. Furlong and Associates in Oldwick, NJ. This option will allow our veterinarian on call to maximize emergency patient care capabilities by minimizing the distance between emergency locations.  

As we understand the cost of emergency care can be difficult to manage, the ship-in emergency visit fee will be at a reduced rate.

*The purpose of this Co-op is to improve the mental health and well being of our equine veterinarians, as the frequency and demands of emergency services have contributed to a staffing crisis in the veterinary industry. Less than 1% of students graduating vet school are entering equine medicine, and after three years, half of that 1% have left equine private practice. By creating a professional and collaborative relationship between our practices, this Co-op will maintain the standard of care for our clients while creating a more sustainable lifestyle for our veterinarians.
