SO HOW CAN BEPIM BENEFIT YOU AND YOUR HORSES BEYOND GREAT PERFORMANCE AND INTERNAL MEDICINE/CRITICAL CARE??

1) Top performance horse care that is affordable without the burden of huge practice overhead to sustain.

2) Personlized service. You receive direct communication and undivided attention from Dr Bentz- not an intern or other relatively inexperienced veterinarian "delegated" to provide your service.

3) Direct consultation with your regular veterinarian if consultation is requested, with timely written reports provided.

4) Reduction in the need to refer cases to the large, expensive hospitals by on-the-farm and/or outpatient internal medicine and critical care and consultation.

                        This means to you and your horse :

                                     reduced expenses

                                     reduced exposure to in-hospital bugs such as Salmonella, viruses, MRSA etc.

                                     greatly reduced stress on your horse

5) Unlike most other practices, BEPIM does not operate as a pharmacy. We dont use drug mark-up to sustain our practice- we use our services. Therefore, other than immediate medication needs, we write prescriptions for the vast majority of medications we prescribe, allowing you to buy directly and to avoid another mark-up in price from the practice.
