Lee Animal Hospital was founded to provide more than exceptional routine and general veterinary care. From the start, our mission has been to handle the majority of your pet’s needs here, at our facility, rather than referring cases out. Our advanced skills in orthopedics, surgical oncology, and emergency surgery mean that your pet can get specialty-type procedures in the comfort of their regular vet—and at a lower cost than most specialty or emergency facilities.
Our core values are simple:
Communication
You will be heard, always. We pledge to actively listen to and answer any concern or question you have. We pledge to be transparent with every aspect of your pet’s care and explain things fully and to your satisfaction. Our staff speaks several languages, including Spanish and Korean, and strives to ensure everyone who walks through our door feels welcome and comfortable.
Consistency
When you’re at Lee Animal Hospital, you’ll know you can expect consistent, compassionate care from every staff member on every visit. We work hard to provide unified, cohesive, and coherent care to our patients and clients.
Client-Centric
Our goal is to bring concierge-style care to your veterinary experience. We will provide a spectrum of care options to ensure that your pet’s needs are met while respecting your time, budget, and lifestyle. We know that the unexpected happens when it comes to pets, and we’re ready to take walk-ins and same-day appointments.
We’d consider it an honor to be a trusted part of your pet care team and promise to never stop working to help you provide your beloved pet with the best life possible.
