Meet Our Veterinarians

My dog had labor complications. My fiancé and I were out of options until we called Jefferson Animal Hospital. Dr. Sayre, Sara and Tia put the life of a member of our family first and provided first class surgery to give her a second chance at life. I’m glad there is a vet in town that cares for the animals they treat. No amount of debt could ever repay them.

Very happy with the care received here. Dr. Gruber was excellent with care and consideration for the level of pain our pup was in. Felt the diagnosis was accurate as well. We had already been to our regular vet several times and the treatment was no where near as aggressive or appropriate for the level of pain our chihuahua was obviously in. We appreciated the kindness of the receptionists and techs as well. It was a very good experience overall.

Everyone at Jefferson Animal Hospital were very thoughtful and helpful when my dog was found to have cancer. Dr. Koestel was compassionate yet detailed in explaining his situation. She provided recommendations based on her experience and medical knowledge. The entire staff went out of their way to make sure we had time to spend with him, be comfortable and have privacy as we said goodbye to our baby boy. I hope I don't have another emergency, but in the event we do, Jefferson is where I'll go without hesitation.

Brought in my medium size dog two days in row. Both Days the staff was excellent, exceptional and so friendly. The Doctors came in and explained everything that was happening. They let me ask questions without making me feel Like I was bothering them. I highly recommend! I would come back any and every time. Thanks you guys!

Nobody wants to have to take their pet to the vet in an emergency, but we had to this weekend and the entire staff were very friendly and helpful. They took care of us and our pet. Even though it wasn't the best news, they kept us informed through the entire process. I can't say enough how much I appreciated them.
