Description

Welcome to Grants Lick Veterinary Hospital, a busy mutli-doctor mixed animal practice established in 1962 by Dr. Joseph C. Crowley.

GLVH is one of the largest and longest established clinics in Northern Kentucky. Its combined doctors have over 100 years experience in clinical veterinary medicine. Additionally, GLVH enjoys close working relationships with all the veterinary specialists in the Greater Cincinnati area.

We are proud to be one of the few remaining veterinary offices that offer after-hours emergency service for our clients. Many of our clients feel that it is a great source of comfort to have their pets emergency needs met by their own doctors who are familiar with the pets medical history. There are however, certain emergency situations (such as seizuring animals, C-sections, severe trauma) that will be referred to the local emergency clinics.

In January 2004 we opened our branch office in Falmouth Ky at 204 Park St. This branch offers the same services and pricing as the main office.
