Services
Vaccinations
We develop custom vaccination programs for pets of all ages to prevent infectious diseases. Our protocols follow current veterinary guidelines while considering individual pet risk factors. Regular booster shots help maintain immunity against common illnesses like rabies, distemper, and parvovirus.
Dental Care
Our dental services include routine checkups, professional cleanings, and treatment for periodontal disease. We use digital dental X-rays to diagnose hidden problems and offer extractions when necessary. Preventive care helps avoid serious health issues from untreated dental infections.
Surgical Services
We perform various soft tissue surgeries including spays/neuters, mass removals, and gastrointestinal procedures. With strict anesthetic monitoring and post-operative care, we prioritize patient safety during all surgical procedures at our fully equipped facility.
Radiology
Digital radiology provides immediate diagnostic imaging for bone fractures, internal organ assessment, and respiratory conditions. Our veterinarians interpret images to identify issues requiring medical or surgical intervention while minimizing patient discomfort during procedures.
Pharmacy
Our in-house pharmacy stocks common prescription medications for quick access to essential treatments. We also offer an online pharmacy option for convenient home delivery of chronic medications and preventive products like flea control and heartworm preventives.

The doctor seems to have good instincts about the animals. I come in thinking one thing and he has a hunch it's something else (and he's right). IDEX blood testing is done onsite with results in minutes, although very expensive. Actual appointment cost is very reasonable. They have decent appointment availability. If you can't find street parking, use the lot for the bank.

They charge Extra $60 for any clinic visit, including food prescription approval. My cat is totally fine but still need to pay $60 for approval. I decided to switch.

Nice and friendly staff. The doc seemed helpful and was really friendly as well. Knocked a star off since the front desk seems a bit scattered with the administrative stuff

I had problem concerning available room for my cat who was at the point of death. I was very upset because my cat was so so sick. It would be a wonderful thing if the hospital had a separate emergency station for unique medical situationss.

Very unpleasant and unwelcoming experience for a new or potential client. I've had pets my entire life and not once did I have to prepay for services that was until I called Richmond veterinary hospital today . The unpleasant person on the phone stated that a prepayment was needed for a visit and expected me to give her my credit card number over the phone. Who does that in 2021?! If I'm not trusted to receive services without prepayment how do you expect me to trust you a person sight unseen with my credit card information? Also, I was not allowed to come make the payment in person. That seems

I dont want to write this but I need to. Richmond Vet, the Dr and the staff are above extraordinary, compassionate, caring. No words could ever truly describe how I feel about them. From day one when DOG came to the office they loved him. They always took care of him, he was an old guy. They would talk to him and give him love. He was never hesitant to go with anyone and was always well behaved with them. And on the last day, they were nothing less than to him. They made arrangements for me and him that unfortunate day. I could actually see emotion from the staff that day. Thank you for making
