Zoltán Szalai

He did not disinfect his tools before or after treatment. Two days later, two horses showed the first signs of a contagious infection (herpes), which demonstrably could not have entered the stable by any other means, as it is a closed stable with no other horses or visitors. One and a half days later, the mare miscarried, has a fever, and is receiving acute treatment from a local veterinarian. Both horses are still recovering from the herpes infection.

I was initially skeptical because my Tinker is terrified of men. From beginning to end, I was absolutely amazed. My Tinker let me handle him without any problems, put the frame on him, and then do his teeth. No sedation required! We've found our equine dental specialist and are absolutely thrilled... I highly recommend Zoltan Szalai.

Very empathetic and experienced in what he does. I can wholeheartedly recommend Zoltan. It's incredible how relaxed the ponies were—some even with a slack lead rope—without sedation.

For the past four years, Zoltan has been doing the dental work for our three horses and six more at our stable (the number keeps increasing). Some of them are quite difficult and even head-shy. Zoltan's calm demeanor seems to rub off on every single horse – they all cooperate well. Even when extracting teeth, the horses only experience a brief moment of excitement. At the next appointment, they are even more relaxed because they don't associate it with anything negative. Afterward, they can go straight back out to pasture. A fellow stablemate was skeptical and had Zoltan's work "reviewed" at a veterinary clinic specializing in dental issues, because her horse had previously had to go there regularly due to serious dental problems and required sedation. The clinic was very satisfied with Zoltan's work, and her horse has been seeing him regularly for the past three years. We wholeheartedly recommend Zoltan.

The vet handled our horses very calmly and pleasantly. Our draft horse was also treated wonderfully and without prejudice. The dental work was excellent; the vet carefully examined the horse, made adjustments, and worked very precisely overall. We look forward to the next appointment.
