Take care of your horse's health with a functional approach and without leaving home. At VetFulness we offer the best online equine veterinary service. We are based in Sotogrande, but we are worldwide, contact us for more information!
We are VetFulness, a project led by veterinary doctor Sandrine Serfaty, specialised in offering sports and functional medical care for equine animals’ health, ensuring their maximum wellbeing through different subscription modalities and individual sessions.
As equine veterinarians we know that horses’ health must go hand in hand with the best care both physically and psychologically. That is why we offer first class care to owners, riders and handlers, no matter where they are.
At VetFulness we value horses, not only as great competitors in sporting disciplines, but also as excellent life partners. For this reason, we offer you our online equine veterinary service, with which you will obtain a lot of facilities and benefits.
Horse's health, our top priority
If you have one or a few horses in your care, you should know that their care requires a lot of responsibility, particularly if they are competition horses. However, sometimes you may overlook certain elements or fail to notice possible discomfort, which does not always manifest itself in physical pain. In such cases, a specialist's opinion could be of great help to you.
Consulting with an experienced online equine veterinarian will help you to be sure that your horse is following a proper diet according to the activities it performs, if it is exercising properly or if it is performing without problems in their social relationships with other equines.
You can even complement any diagnosis made by your trusted vet with a second opinion from our specialists, to be completely sure about your horse's health.
Online appointments at VetFulness consist of voice or video call sessions with Sandrine Serfaty, an equine veterinarian and jockey with more than 30 years of experience in sports medicine, who will listen attentively to your queries regarding your horse's needs: it health, behaviour or sporting performance.
We work through subscription plans or individual sessions, which in principle last about 15 minutes. However, there may be exceptional cases where consultations are longer, in addition to the possibility of face-to-face tests and diagnoses.

We offer you a free, no-obligation introductory call. Book your appointment here.

The best way to look after your horse's health is through continuous care. As an equine owner, rider or caregiver, it is likely that at some point you will have to deal with situations that affect the health of these animals, such as discomfort, weakness, injuries or even accidents.
Knowing how to handle these situations in time is a key issue. Therefore, there is nothing better than having at your disposal a veterinary doctor with extensive experience in equine care, who will guide you in the steps you should follow to meet all the needs of your horse.
In the case of competing horses, you will face different circumstances that also require the intervention of a specialist, who will guide you through the preparation process prior to a sporting event, the diet to follow, post-competition recovery, injury care and much more.
Through regular check-ups, we aim to contribute to your horse's quality of life and maximise its well-being, regardless of your geographical location.
