Why Choose Fisher?
Family owned and operated for over 27 years, Fisher Biomedical specializes in consulting with clients on diagnostic ultrasound solutions.
Our purpose is not to simply get you an ultrasound — but to get you the right ultrasound, and to make sure you make the most of it in your breeding operation.
Very often we will actually talk our clients into buying less-expensive (but much more appropriate) systems, because we know how challenging it can be for many breeders to afford an ultrasound, and we know many competitors are trying to sell systems twice as advanced (and twice as expensive) as anything the average breeder could ever possibly need.
And unlike other ultrasound dealers simply looking to turn sales, we at Fisher Biomedical take it as our duty to help you become as successful (and as profitable) as possible, long after the sale is completed.
No other seller or service-provider offers this level of expertise and support. Don't settle for second best!
Client Reviews
"I purchased an ultrasound from you about two years ago (I LOVE it). I have recommended your machine to ANYONE who wants to save money, time, and their horse's overall health by not having to frequently transport them to the vet. It has really been a godsend. And I can't begin to tell you how much money it has saved me - it has paid for itself twice over at least. If you ever get someone that wants a testimonial, please feel free to contact me. Thank you so very much for everything. Your company is a class act!"
— Cindy Knox, Corner K Quarter Horses

"Thank you for the [equine ultrasound training] DVD you sent me. It really helped me a lot, and I finally have it figured out now. You did an excellent job on that, and it really solved some problems I hadn't been able to get through in all the time I have been working on using ultrasound. The machine I bought off of you is FAR superior to the one I had, even though the one I had was originally far, far more expensive. Thank you very much for helping me out."
— Ted Tomson

“I have to tell you, I love my ultrasound! It has given us so much freedom for breeding our own mares. I no longer have to wait for the vet, but can check them myself on my own schedule! When Kevin suggested we buy it last year, I knew I would love it, but hesitated, because I had heard they were really expensive. It was nice to find such a great machine for a reasonable cost."
— Kathy Hood

"I have had many suppliers and vendors in my medical career. Shawn, your organization is top notch. The video that I received last night has already been reviewed. Wow! Shawn, you did a great job. I am a sonographer by education on humans. Dr. Kubiak is an excellent teacher and I believe that I have much to learn. ... I can not say enough good things about your follow-through, your integrity and the quality of your product and the education that you have provided. I believe that the money that I spent was extremely well placed. I did not waste a penny. You have given me much more than I ever expected. That is really rare in today's environment. Thanks for everything. You have totally exceeded all expectations!"
— Dr. Micki Haendiges

"My ultrasound from Fisher Biomedical is amazing. Now I may track the egg development to know when to service my mares without all of the vet calls. It really has saved my stallion. I contacted Shawn looking for literature for the mare's reproductive system and with in hours, Shawn had emailed me 2 websites for this information, his service has been great."
— Allen C. Hallett

— Heidi Holmstrom

"The ultrasound was very easy to start using out of the box, and the included documentation was both thorough and simple. Fisher Biomedical, with the personal attention provided by Shawn Fisher, made me feel completely confident in the purchase of this important piece of equipment. From helping us decide which ultrasound and probe were right for us to offering a highly competitive deal, Fisher Biomedical has gone far beyond my expectations for customer service. Mr. Fisher is always friendly, personable, and available to answer questions and provide support before, during, and after the purchase. He really put the finishing touches on the whole experience, taking this already great company to another level. Thanks to his help, I really feel like I have a trustworthy friend in the business! I would unquestionably recommend Fisher Biomedical to any individual or business looking to buy
veterinary or medical equipment."

Why Incorporate Ultrasound Into Your Breeding Operation?
Very simple: Perfection ... according to plan ... every single time.
Isn't it time you took over the ultrasound
work for your breeding program? Imagine your savings from not having to use a vet. Imagine the increased conception rates (and safer conceptions) if you were able to track your own mares yourself. Imagine the reduced stress on your mares, and your own peace of mind. Imagine what this could do for you and your family...
Should You Be Doing Your Own Ultrasound Work?
This is actually rather easy to figure out, and comes down to one question: How many mares are you currently breeding?
1-4 mares ...
You probably do not need your own ultrasound. With maybe two exceptions: If you are breeding extremely valuable horses and you are a long way off from the nearest capable equine vet, then you may still consider it even with only a few mares. (The other exception? If you have plenty of money and just really, really want one!)
5-10 mares ...
You should seriously be considering it, since chances are, if you add up your vet bills, and if you look at the "cost" of a couple missed conceptions each season, or, if you are doing AI, the very real cost of spending money on extra inseminations that you would not need if you were conducting your own accurate ultrasound exams exactly when necessary — if you add all of that up, you will probably find that yearly it amounts to the cost of buying your own ultrasound.
11-20 mares ...
No question about it. You should absolutely have your own ultrasound, and once you get it, and see the results after just one season, you will be kicking yourself for not getting one years ago. If you have about fifteen mares breeding every season, you are easily spending the cost of the ultrasound every year on your vet bills alone.
21+ mares ...
You should be calling us right now. Seriously. Now.
The New CTS-3300V+ Equine Ultrasound
The original CTS-200V was one of our best-selling ultrasounds for years. It only had a 6" screen, and a single-frequency 5 MHz probe. It didn't have cineloop, or image storage, or anything like that. But it still sold very well, because it was a good little system, with a nice enough image, and was affordable.
This year saw the arrival of its vastly superior replacement, the CTS-3300V+. At only a few hundred dollars more, the CTS-3300V+ is without question the best equine repro ultrasound we have ever been able to offer anywhere remotely near this price.
The CTS-3300V+ has a large 10" screen, a powerful multi-frequency 5 - 10 MHz equine probe, a robust cineloop (you are going to love this) that allows you to freeze an image and then back up through the captured frames to where your image was at its best, internal image storage as well as a USB drive for moving images to your computer, and all in a lightweight portable system.
And it is easy to operate. With our custom notes and training DVD, showing you the optimal work flow for dialing in images, you will be able to master this system very, very quickly.
Our Exclusive Training Package
You are probably worried about whether you will be able to figure out the ultrasound, and whether you will understand what it is you are looking at, and whether you will actually be able to achieve results.
Don't worry. We have worked with dozens of beginning breeders with no ultrasound experience whatsoever, and while they were all apprehensive at first, with our training package they were able to get up and running right away (most on the same day they received their ultrasound), were feeling comfortable with it by the end of the first week, and were quite capable within the first month. By the end of your first season, you are going to feel like an expert.
For one, what you are looking for isn't that hard to find or see on the ultrasound. It is pretty easy to find, and extremely easy to measure and annotate and save.
For another, you are going to have our training material, you are going to have access to all of our future training material, you are going to have our ongoing support.
We will help you succeed at this!

Shawn Fisher with Bob DeGour |
The Red Hawk Ranch Success Story
"Perhaps the best endorsement is success. After purchasing the ultrasound that Shawn recommended, we achieved a 100% conception rate using frozen semen during the 2006 breeding season here at Red Hawk Ranch. I use the ultrasound to take the guess work out of ovulation timing.
"Keys to my success have been a set of the "right stuff" ... an excellent "fit" for my first ultrasound instrument, great training, quality semen with incredible post-thaw progressive motility, and very fertile mares.
"We've had a VERY successful breeding season thanks to the ultrasound machine I purchased from Shawn. In fact, the CTS-200V is the proper balance of precision, ease-of-use, and affordability . especially for an equine reproduction operation that only uses an ultrasound during several months of the year. [Note: Bob went on to upgrade to the CTS-3300V when it came out, based on his tremendous savings and succesful results with the CTS-200V.]
"What's also important to consider is having an ultrasound performed when the mare's ovulation cycle requires it. Our mares seem to ovulate at all times of the day and night when our vet is either with other clients or when he's home with his family. Our 100% conception rate last year was due in part to the frequency of pre-ovulatory ultrasounds. With the CTS-200V and the training I received, I AI'ed at the time of ovulation (or very shortly thereafter). An additional benefit of this method is that I don't have to follow the breeding protocols that require one timed insemination dose before and another timed insemination dose after a projected ovulation event. As I mentioned in the first paragraph, my use of the CTS-200V takes the guess work out of my breeding programme. Two benefits are derived: higher conception rates and fewer frozen straws used (reducing my cost per conception).
"So where does a lay person go to get ultrasound training? I've been to a variety of veterinary-school training programmes. They trained me to conduct AI's, conduct much of the lab work required to prepare and ship semen, & handle frozen straws; however, they all refuse to conduct ultrasound training for lay people. Finally, I found Jim Kubiak (http://www.thebreedersassistant.com).
"Last year I conducted all of the equine reproductive ultrasounds here at Red Hawk Ranch. I achieved five conceptions ... a 100% conception rate based on an ultrasound instrument that meets my needs and the practical, very-hands-on training by Dr. Jim Kubiak.
"Here are the 2007 foals that we're expecting here at Red Hawk Ranch in the next few weeks (all by imported frozen semen):
``Samarant`` x ``D'Olympic`` x ``Dobrock`` ``Sir Donnerhall`` x ``Sir Oldenburg`` x ``Rubinstein`` ``Diamond Hit`` x ``Rubicell`` x ``Landfalk`` ``Fidertanz`` x ``Dacaprio`` x ``Lanciano`` ``Rubin Royal`` x ``Hohenstein`` x ``Grandus``
"Oh, I forgot to mention Shawn's two-year warranty, his prompt advice whenever I call or e-mail, and his rapid response to my question about spare fuses: he didn't provide an answer - he simply shipped some free of charge.
"My overall experience with Shawn has far exceeded my expectations, resulting in the finest foal crop during our 17 years in the equine reproduction business."
