Serving Your Pets and Community Since 1975

Southwest Virginia Veterinary Services was established in 1975 by Drs. Bayard and Margaret (Peggy) Rucker following their graduation from the University of Georgia College of Veterinary Medicine. Our new, beautifully maintained, the hospital was built in 1985, remodeled and added onto in 2008-2009 and is located just off the Highway 19 bypass in Lebanon. SVVS offers many features to meet the needs of you and your pet. We are a full-service facility offering complete surgical, radiological and medical care, including intensive care for those severely ill and/or injured patients.

Southwest Virginia Veterinary Services is proud to have achieved the accreditation of the American Animal Hospital Association (AAHA). AAHA sets standards for veterinary hospitals to meet in areas such as patient care, client care, pain management and many others. We regularly undergo inspections to ensure we provide the highest quality care possible and make changes according to AAHA recommendations to remain progressive to serve our clients and patients. Ask one of our trained professionals more about AAHA standards when we come back.

At SVVS, we offer 24-hour emergency care for our current clients. Our hospital is a complete services facility, meaning we can do almost all diagnostic tests, such as x-rays, ultrasounds, blood tests, urinalyses, and f***l exams to make sure we can manage your pet’s emergency, regardless of the time of day. We also have complete surgical facilities to ensure that your pet gets the very best care in a timely fashion. We also offer boarding and grooming in addition to a full retail area where you can purchase grooming products, treats, and toys. We are proud to have canine basic obedience classes, as well as puppy socialization and beginner agility classes.

Since 1975, the mission of SVVS has been to make sure that both you and your pet receive the same care and compassion that we would want for our own family. All of us are pet owners, too…so we understand the connection you have with your pet and all the concerns and challenges you have in helping your pet live a happier, healthier, and longer life. We are pleased to be able to offer you and your pet the highest quality standard of care. We invite you to visit our website at www.svvspets.com to read about our wide range of services. Your call is important to us. Please stay on the line. We’ll be right back.
