Overview
Your Other Family Doctor
The Highland Veterinary Hospital was established in 1982 by Dr. John Dennis Cunningham — "Denny" — and his wife Lucrecia. The practice originally operated out of the adjacent building, built in 1907, where the two lived upstairs during their early years. "On the day we opened we were acting like children, peeking through the blinds, wondering if anybody was going to come." Sure enough, the clients came and the practice quickly expanded its service to grooming under the name Paws For Thought, which eventually changed to The Highland Groomery. In 2001 Dr. C. purchased the property from Delmas Wood. The Groomery was sold as its own entity, and the vet practice was moved to its current location
Mission — From the very beginning, our mission was to provide quality care and services to our clients in a comfortable, professional, and accessible environment. We live this mission every day. Our veterinarians are here to provide our patients with the very best medical care, while also helping our pet-parents to understand and navigate the needs of their furry family members
