Story of Confederate Ridge Animal Hospital

Dr. Howard Gregory started a practice in an old gas station in downtown Fredericksburg, Virginia, in the 1950s. In about 1960 he moved the practice to a new building at 2301 Jefferson Davis Highway which he named Confederate Ridge Animal Hospital because the building is located in the community of Confederate Ridge.

In 1967, Dr. Alan Witter graduated from the Cornell University Veterinary School and became an associate of Dr. Gregory’s, subsequently purchasing half of the practice after several years. The practice was originally both a small and large animal practice, as Fredericksburg was a relatively rural area in the 1960s. At that time, there was mostly livestock and dairy farmland.

Dr. James Dunlap became an associate in 1972 and bought Dr. Gregory’s half of the practice in the early eighties. Dr. Dunlap and Dr. Witter opened Potomac Ridge Animal Hospital on Rt. 205 on the way to Colonial Beach in the mid 1990s. In 1997, Dr. Witter and Dr. Dunlap separated the two practices and Dr. Witter began construction of the current building behind the original Confederate Ridge Animal Hospital.
