About Us
At Ashby Animal Clinic, we have been dedicated to providing expert pet care in the Shenandoah Valley since 1974. Founded by Dr. James G. Simmons, our clinic operates with experienced, trained veterinarians supported by a knowledgeable staff. Our primary goal is to ensure that your small companion pet receives the very best in veterinary care.
We offer a comprehensive range of services designed to preserve and enhance your pet's health. Our services include in-house and referral diagnostics, laboratory tests, vaccinations, and disease prevention care. We also specialize in digital X-rays, preventive and elective dental care, and routine and emergency surgeries. Additionally, we provide laser therapy treatments to help alleviate pain and promote healing.
Our veterinarians work closely with you and your pet to evaluate health, diagnose and treat illnesses, provide routine preventative care, and prescribe medication as needed. We believe in the importance of regular physical examinations to ensure long-term health, and we recommend thorough examinations at least once each year. Our team is committed to providing professional advice and resources, as well as valuable pet care information, to help you make informed decisions about your pet's health.
We understand that emergencies can happen at any time, which is why we offer after-hour emergency care during evenings, weekends, and holidays. Our commitment to your pet's well-being extends beyond regular business hours, ensuring that you have access to urgent care when needed.
