Dr. Chad Hewlett, who has been in practice for over 25 years, founded Energy Equine in 2006 with the specific goal of treating performance horses. At the time, Dr. Hewlett operated an ambulatory-focused practice out of O'Brays Equine Services in Carstairs, Alberta. Fifteen years later, and a few truck changes since the one-man-show days, Dr. Hewlett is still in practice but Energy Equine has grown exponentially and become a recognized and trusted brand for the performance horse. 

Energy Equine moved into a brand new, 5200 sq ft, custom designed facility just north of Airdrie, Alberta. Shifting our focus from strictly ambulatory to facility-based has provided us immense growth. As a team we discovered that our facilities provide a new level of customer service and comfort for our clients. These same facilities provide our veterinarians the ability to diagnose problems quicker, and reach new levels of veterinary medicine so that we can get our athletes back to peak performance faster. 


Our second location, Synergy Equine opened. Our Dewinton, AB locations currently houses a 2500 sq. ft. clinic and 50’x100’ tarp structure for our veterinarians to work out of. Synergy Equine has two exam rooms, a recovery stall, five outside stalls, a round-pen and small reception and inventory area that is both functional and aesthetically pleasing. Similar to our north facility, our doors are wide open and welcoming to clients old and new.
