Our friendly team-oriented mixed animal veterinary practice focuses on integrative medicine where we provide compassionate and quality veterinary service. We are presently a four doctor ambulatory and haul-in clinic practice with a focus on preventative health care and medical treatment. Our established practice is stable and still growing!

The staff team all play a vital role daily and we value each and everyone of them. It is important for all staff to continually grow both professionally and personally. Some of the additional extras are team of doctors enjoy include: weekly doctor case discussions over breakfast, clean & peaceful doctor office space to allow for quiet time to write up charts, review diagnostics, and communicate with clients (the view is great!), a team of multiple top-notch Registered Veterinary Technicians to work alongside, and so much more!

Many clients are established for years and are a joy to work with (obviously there are exceptions)! The clinic was newly renovated in 2019 and is well-equipped with digital x-ray, ultrasound, dental equipment, endoscope, gastroscope, in-house CBC and chemistry analyzers, in-house cultures, shockwave, lasers and much, much more. We are open to new diagnostic purchases to help better serve our clients and patients.

Additionally, doctors are encouraged to develop an area of particular interest within veterinary medicine. For example, one of the veterinarians is certified in acupuncture and chiropractic care; while another has developed a small clientele of exotics pet owners.

The large animal case load is predominately equine with patients being approximately 70% equine, 25% pet sheep/goat and 5% camelids/cows. Equine patients are a varied mix of recreational trail horses, Western show and performance horses, English sport horses, and backyard pets with most breeds represented (miniature horses to quarter horses to gypsy vanner to percherons!) The large animal practice is mainly ambulatory but approximately 20% of the patients are seen as haul-in cases. The small animal patients are mostly dogs and cats, with the occasional pocket pet and backyard chicken as well. Yes, there is variety and we make sure you are fully equipped to see a different species. We will help you learn!

We have a friendly, competent support staff consisting of Registered Veterinary Technicians, several veterinary assistants, awesome customer service representatives, and organized and supportive clinic managers.  Working together the clinic team is professionally qualified, progressive in thinking, and sincerely compassionate to patients, clients, and fellow staff members.

Our goal is to make our clients an integral part of our health care team through client communication, client educational events, and preventative health care plans. The clinic is very active in the community and participates in numerous community events, including having an annual Kids Vet Camp and Live Nativity.

We believe, there is life outside of the vet clinic, and it is imperative to enjoy your hobbies, your own animals, and time with family and friends.
