Smith Mountain Lake Animal Hospital

Exceptional service and care for my pet today. We had an emergency with one of our cats and our regular vet had no time for it. I called Smith Mountain Lake Veterinary and they were so accommodating. They got is in and the situation was taken care of compassionately and thoroughly. Thank you Dr. Gallagher and all the staff. Love the totally pet friendliness of the entire process. Even their 2 office cats greeted us and made our cat feel more relaxed.

Our 8 year old yellow lab Gracie has been suffering with arthritis of her front left foot which left her in terrible pain - trouble getting up, not wanting to walk, play etc. We have tried the typical canine arthritis meds, and will still continue those for support. Dr Weitzman consulted with Dr Seuss (ortho/soft tissue specialist) who sees patients right here at SML Animal !!!! She was given a cortisone injection as well as an injection of a gel which improves joint health for cushioning and support. She is a different dog 24 hours later!!! Living at SML for over 20 years, how blessed we are to have this level of expertise right here in our backyard! Thanks to you both for giving Gracie her fun loving self back!

I stopped by recently to pick up medicine for my friend’s dog and was really impressed with the experience. From the moment I walked in, the office made a great first impression. The front desk staff was warm, welcoming, and very professional. The young woman who helped me was incredibly kind, accommodating, and well-spoken, which made the process quick and easy. Even though I wasn’t there for my own pet, I left feeling confident that this is a caring and attentive place for animals and their owners. I’ll definitely recommend Smith Mountain Lake Animal Hospital to friends and family in the area!

My animals have been going here since we got them and they’re wonderful. The office staff is kind, organized and efficient. The vet and techs are equally kind, thorough, thoughtful, knowledgeable and everyone genuinely seems to want to be there. We’ve had a hard time finding a vet who didn’t seem to just want our money. Dr. Brian genuinely loves his patients and it is really easy to see it when he’s examining and talking to them.

We lived at the lake for two years and Charlie was treated by Smith Mountain Lake Animal Hospital. We have since moved back to Forest and lost our Charlie yesterday. I would like to thank the doctors and staff for helping Charlie with his health condition, collapsed trachea, and giving him 15 wonderful years. The doctors and staff were great and very kind. While we really miss our " Little Buddy", he was loved and cared for by all that were involved in his treatment. Thanks so much Jeff Massie
