From a single clinic started in 1952 by Dr. Hal Taylor, Sr., Healthy Pets has grown to 8 thriving clinics – solidifying its position as central Ohio’s preeminent family-operated veterinary practice. Dr. Hal Taylor, Sr. graduated from The Ohio State University School of Veterinary Medicine in 1950 and opened a small animal practice on the Westside of Columbus. Dr. Hal Taylor, Jr. (Doc) joined the practice in 1970. After Dr. Taylor Sr.’s retirement, Doc expanded the practice to 8 locations, uniting under the Healthy Pets banner in 1999. The most recent clinic, Healthy Pets of Houk Road, opened in 2024. Today, Doc’s son, Dr. Hal Taylor, III (Chip) serves as Healthy Pets Medical Director
