Services
Vaccinations
We provide core and preventative vaccinations for dogs and cats at participant rates. Our clinic follows AAHA guidelines for immunization schedules. Vaccinations protect against common diseases while helping maintain community herd immunity for animal populations.
Emergency Care
24/7 emergency veterinary services handle critical pet health situations. Our experienced team stabilizes acute conditions before regular appointments or transfers complex cases to specialized facilities in Columbus while maintaining immediate care during business hours.
Dental Cleaning
Professional dental cleanings include ultrasonic scaling and polishing under anesthesia. We address periodontal disease prevention and treatment while monitoring oral health indicators during annual wellness exams for comprehensive pet healthcare.
Wellness Exams
Annual physical exams include age-appropriate diagnostics like parasite tests and blood work. These preventive evaluations identify early disease indicators and establish health baselines. More frequent monitoring occurs for pets with ongoing medical conditions or senior animals.
Laser Therapy
Therapeutic laser treatments address arthritic pain, post-surgical recovery, and wound healing. This non-invasive modality reduces inflammation and promotes cellular regeneration. We incorporate laser sessions into treatment plans for chronic conditions and acute injuries alike.

I absolutely love this place. My vet that I have insurance with is too busy to see us even in an emergency driving to any location within a two hour radius for WEEKS. Cold Spring has gotten me in within 24 hours every time and taken the absolute best care of my kitten who I was so scared would die if he wasn't seen. They have a caring staff and great communication. Highly recommend!

Cold spring animal clinic here in mount vernon rd just across the Glenridge village where we live was really a good vet clinic overall , I also think they price reasonable and comparable from other veterinary clinic around ,they don't even push the expensive tests first , they will manage the problem because it's allergy season unless it's unmanageable that he needs to get an expensive 200$ blood work for allergies , but the doctor vet said she doesn't think Jiggly my 6 month old male puppy needs it yet , they gave him a shot for allergies food for 4-6 weeks and antibiotic ointment so he can get

I had been going to another vet for quite a few years with no complaints. Then, I heard about Dr. Martin over at Cold Spring Animal Clinic and decided to go check it out. I have a new vet! Upon arrival, I was greeted by fantastic staff and made to feel welcome. As I went over my dogs symptoms, Dr. Martin listened very carefully and then provided options with detailed explanations of each one. My dog fell in love with not just Dr. Martin, but her staff as well. It seems the treats there are superior to the ones at home. I immediately switched over to Dr. Martin at Cold Spring.
