Terms of Use
Last Updated: September 18, 2026
Welcome to the Sloan Sports Medicine website. These Terms of Use govern your access to and use of this website, its content, and online services provided through or in connection with the website.
By accessing or using this website, submitting an appointment request, or using services available through this website, you agree to these Terms of Use.
Veterinary Services
Sloan Sports Medicine provides mobile equine veterinary services. Availability of services may vary based on location, scheduling, veterinarian availability, travel, the needs of the horse, and other circumstances.
Information provided through this website is intended for general informational and educational purposes and should not be considered a diagnosis, treatment plan, or substitute for an examination and professional veterinary care.
No Veterinarian-Client-Patient Relationship
Accessing this website, reading its content, submitting a contact form, requesting an appointment, sending an email, or otherwise communicating electronically with Sloan Sports Medicine does not, by itself, establish a veterinarian-client-patient relationship (VCPR).
A VCPR is established only when applicable professional and legal requirements have been satisfied.
Appointments & Scheduling
Appointment requests submitted through the website are not considered confirmed until you receive confirmation from Sloan Sports Medicine.
Because Sloan Sports Medicine is a mobile veterinary practice, appointment times and availability may be affected by travel, weather, emergencies, previous appointments, and other circumstances outside our control.
Clients should contact Sloan Sports Medicine as soon as possible if an appointment needs to be canceled or rescheduled.
Applicable travel, call-out, cancellation, or other service fees may be communicated when services are scheduled or provided.
Emergencies
This website should not be used for veterinary emergencies or situations requiring immediate medical attention.
Website forms, email, social media messages, and other electronic communications may not be monitored continuously.
If you believe your horse is experiencing a veterinary emergency, contact Sloan Sports Medicine directly using the appropriate contact information available to you or seek assistance from an available emergency veterinarian in your area.
Do not delay emergency veterinary care while waiting for a response through this website.
Veterinary & Educational Information
Sloan Sports Medicine may provide information regarding equine health, sports medicine, diagnostics, rehabilitation, performance, treatment options, and related veterinary topics.
This information is provided for general educational purposes only.
Every horse and medical situation is different. Website content should not be used to independently diagnose a condition, select a treatment, administer or discontinue medication, or delay appropriate veterinary care.
Always consult a qualified veterinarian familiar with the individual horse before making medical or treatment decisions.
Treatment & Results
Veterinary recommendations are based on the information available at the time of evaluation, which may include examination findings, medical history, diagnostic testing, imaging, previous treatments, and other relevant factors.
No veterinary treatment, procedure, medication, rehabilitation program, diagnostic service, or performance-related service can guarantee a particular result.
Case studies, testimonials, photographs, videos, or examples of previous outcomes are provided for informational purposes and should not be interpreted as a guarantee that another horse will experience the same or similar results.
Client Responsibilities
Clients are responsible for providing accurate and complete information regarding their horse, including relevant medical history, medications, previous injuries, treatments, diagnostic findings, and changes in the horse's condition.
The person requesting veterinary services represents that they are the owner of the horse or have appropriate authority to authorize veterinary care on the owner's behalf.
Payment & Fees
Clients are responsible for charges associated with veterinary services, diagnostics, procedures, medications, travel, and other authorized services.
Payment terms and applicable fees may be communicated when services are scheduled or provided.
Prices and fees are subject to change unless otherwise agreed in writing.
Payments processed through third-party providers may also be subject to the terms and privacy policies of those providers.

This website may contain links to third-party websites and services, including online pharmacies, scheduling platforms, payment processors, laboratories, social media platforms, and other resources.
These third parties operate independently from Sloan Sports Medicine and may maintain their own terms, privacy policies, pricing, shipping practices, and requirements.
Sloan Sports Medicine is not responsible for the operation, security, availability, content, or privacy practices of independently operated third-party websites.
Prescription medications and veterinary products remain subject to applicable veterinary requirements and professional judgment.
