Why Keystone?

And A Vision For The Future

Our practice started in 1996 with a simple idea... we can build a better veterinary hospital for pet owners who love their pets as much as we love ours. We began implementing technology and protocols that are only now becoming mainstream in veterinary medicine. And we did it for a simple reason... we believe that your pet receives the best medical care their is. Because to your pet, you are a hero, and we know how much the bond you share means to you.

A keystone is historically known to be the most important piece of an Arch and it is the reason the opening can withstand the weight of the structure above. Keystone Animal Hospital strives to be that most important and stable part of your pet’s veterinary care and to also become a staple in your life to look towards in the overall well-being of your pet family members. We exist because we believe you deserve a different kind of veterinary practice. A practice that thinks deeply about how to better support you - both inside and outside our walls. A practice that thinks about the total picture of pet ownership, and bares some of the weight that you usually feel. A practice that is there for you. We believe you deserve something special. And we can't wait to show you.

Compassion

This is a place for animal lovers. This is a place for people to feel cared about, understood, and heard. When you walk through our doors, your problems become our problems, and you become a member of the family. This is the vision that drove us to build Keystone Animal Hospital. We take the time to understand what your concerns are, we take the opportunity to listen closely to your questions, and we relish the chance to care for your pet like our own.

Patient Care

There is a trend in veterinary medicine to try to see as many patients in the day as possible. That’s not us. Don’t get us wrong, we would love to help as many people and pets as possible. However we have found that true individualized veterinary medicine requires a much more careful and methodical approach. We know and understand that everyone’s situation is different. Therefore, we will work to develop treatment plans that are the right choice for both your pet and your family because you deserve that.

Patient Care

Healthy Pets. Happy Families.

If I could give more than 5 stars I definitely would!!! Everyone at this vet, EVERYONE, is so compassionate and friendly and very knowledgeable. I truly can’t say enough glowing things about Keystone. I am so blessed that I found a vet that truly cares about my fur babies and treats them with such love and kindness, as if they were their very own.

We’ve had a few difficult decisions to make here in the last couple months and the care and compassion shown by everyone has just blown me away. They were professional, compassionate and explained everything at every step.

This is a family and you’re treated as such. I am so blessed and fortunate that my pets have Keystone to take care of them.

Great experience with this office. It was our first time I took my dog and a cat for shots and some other stuff and had an amazing experience. Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Vet called me several times to keep me posted about every lab work they did on my animals and explained in details . From the moment we set up appointment to the very end, had nothing but excellent customer experience. My animals are happy. Definitely recommend for anyone around who’s looking for a vet.

Super happy with our experience at this vet office! EVERYONE was kind, compassionate, and patient. Dr. Sara Charles was exceptionally through in asking questions about my dogs health history and so patient as I asked her a ton of questions. I think this is the best vets office visit I’ve ever had.

I was impressed by the service I received at Keystone. Everyone was so friendly and helpful. Dr. Sara is great with communicating and explaining everything to you. Due to Covid, I was unable to to go inside with my dog for his appointment, but Dr. Sara called me multiple times during his appointment to ask questions and let me know what was going on. She seemed to really care and was very thorough. The next day I even received a follow up phone call to check up on my dog and see how he was feeling after his shots. The wait time at his appointment was minimal and the pricing was very fair. I would definitely recommend this facility.
