Brown Animal Hospital has been providing quality veterinary care to Pee Dee, Lake City, and surrounding regions for over 60 years. Our hospital was founded in 1959 by Dr. David L. Brown, Jr. and has been serving the community ever since. In 1961, he built and opened our current location at 1111 East Main Street in Lake City. Dr. Brown served the Pee Dee and surrounding regions on his own until his daughter, Dr. Karole Brown Parker, joined him in practice in 1988. Dr. Brown and Dr. Parker served the community together until Dr. Brown passed away in 2008. Today, Dr. Parker continues her father's legacy of compassionate veterinary care in her practice
