Overview
Exceptional Patient Care and Customer Service since 1968. It takes passion, commitment and strong values to establish yourself as a trusted community pillar and that's precisely what Matthews Animal Clinic has become known for since opening its doors in 1968
Matthews Animal Clinic opened in 1968, when Matthews was a small town with one grocery, one barber and two hardware stores. Back then, we were a full-service clinic, providing healthcare services for companion animals, farm animals and horses alike. It wasn't unusual to see a horse trailer in the parking lot, or come in to find that the doctor was out delivering a calf. That all changed as Matthews started to grow. In 1977, we became a two-veterinarian practice and by 1996, we were a five-veterinarian practice. In the meantime, we ended the large animal aspect of our practice to focus more fully on providing the highest-quality, most personal care to the dogs, cats and pocket pets in our community. Now we're the oldest and largest veterinary hospital in the Matthews area
