We are a full service veterinary hospital offering complete medical, surgical and dental services. We were founded in 1976 by Dr. James Bostic. The practice was purchased by Dr. Gail Bostic in 1992 after the retirement of Dr. James Bostic. We are AAHA certified which means we have to meet more stringent standards of care. We have a special interest in reproduction and perform cooled semen shipments, artificial insemination and surgical implantation of semen. Dr. Gail Bostic has been certified to perform the Penn-hip procedure which can diagnose hip dysplasia more accurately and at an earlier age.
