About Dr Sabrina Jacobs

Performance Equine Vets was established in 2004 by Dr Sabrina Jacobs. She actively searched the South Eastern United States looking for the perfect location to setup her Equine Vet Clinic. After traveling and searching for the best location, Sabrina and her husband Clay stumbled upon Aiken, South Carolina. It quickly became obvious that this was the ideal location to setup shop. The community is friendly and overwhelming involved in the equestrian sports. In early 2005 Dr Jacobs began servicing the Aiken area and the rest is now history.

Performance Equine Vets (PEVS) has grown substantially over the past 5 years and now encompasses more than 50 acres with 3 working barns. Dr Jacobs has developed a world class embryo transfer center and operates the only USDA Certified Export Center # 10SC001-EQS in the State of South Carolina. We encourage you to call us today and setup an appointment.
