Lien Animal Clinic, A Thrive Pet Healthcare Partner

If we still lived in the area, we would continue to visit this location. My partner and I have been taking our furbaby, Angus, here for almost 7 years, and he has seen mainly two doctors. Originally it was with Dr. Wootton, who I believe moved to another facility during the pandemic, and afterwards, Angus has been seen by Dr. Kellie Wood. It was originally Dr. Wootton that diagnosed Angus to have a special condition that requires a special medication and changes to our home to accommodate his condition. Dr. Wood is cheerful with Angus, and always gets him to gently come out of his crate and tolerate getting examined. Angus has had a couple of dental surgeries performed by Dr. Wood, and when I pick him up, while loopy on the anesthesia, he returns to his normal self after a couple of da

We highly recommend Lien Animal Clinic! We especially loved Dr Kellie Wood and Rachel as well as the office staff. We also highly recommend signing up for the Thrive plan!! We wish we had signed up for Thrive sooner especially for the free office visits. Parking can be a challenge as the lot is small, and they don't always answer the phone, but they do call back fairly quickly after leaving a message and they do give excellent care for pet and human alike!

I absolutely love the Lien Animal Clinic. The doctors are kind & compassionate and take the time to make sure you understand test results, options, etc. Dr. Phillips is so helpful with my shy kitty & has walked us through a cancer diagnosis with compassion. The staff is very professional. Truly a great clinic.

What I wish I’d known about “routine” lipoma removal I’m sharing this so other pet owners can make informed choices about “routine” lipoma removals. In February 2025, my dog Jesse underwent what was supposed to be a simple, low-risk lipoma removal at Lien Animal Clinic. He had two benign lipomas—one on his leg, which had begun causing a limp, and one on his side, which wasn’t bothering him. During the consultation, the vet suggested that since Jesse would already be under anesthesia, it might make sense to remove the one on his side as a preventative measure. I agreed, but my main goal—the reason for the surgery—was to remove the lipoma on his leg to help his mobility. During surgery, the vet attempted to remove the lipoma on his leg but was unable to complete it. They cut into the area

Really fantastic care and bedside manner. We've brought both our cat and dog here and have seen two different doctors, both of whom were wonderful. They're incredibly patient and attentive and do a great job of explaining everything thoroughly.
