Omnipotent’s Story

Omnipotent

Atop Omnipotent is his trainer and rider, Tina Baglione; standing with them is Christine Smith, the 6-year old stallion’s breeder.

I’ll never forget that November evening. Omnipotent’s trainer was pounding on my door, yelling, “Come quick, Omni’s collicking; it’s bad!” My vet referred us to the Equine Medical Center and we got Omni there as quickly as we could. From the moment we arrived—with Omni down in the trailer—the EMC staff operated with utmost efficiency as they examined him and quickly sent him to surgery. Needless to say, I was beside myself, but the EMC staff—from the receptionists to the surgeons and everyone in between—handled everything with state-of-the-art-knowledge and skill, compassion, and integrity. I was informed of Omni’s progress every step of the way, and the outcome was tremendous. Within days, he was on his way back to full health and by August, he was starting back under the saddle, preparing for the 2009 show season. And, to our complete delight, he’s even a new dad! From the bottom of my heart, EMC, thank you.
