Piedmont Veterinary Service

Piedmont Veterinary Service is a locally owned, full-service companion animal hospital. We are located 13 miles south of Charlottesville, VA in Keene

In 1990, I, Dr. Chris Grover, took over Piedmont Veterinary Service (PVS), a farm animal veterinary practice. In 1994, I repurposed the Old Keene Store, a turn of the century former inn, into an animal hospital. Karen Degiorgis, D.V.M and Lara West, L.V.T. joined me and we became a mixed animal practice. The southern Albemarle community and surrounding areas welcomed us with open arms. We have been proud to be an integral part of this community ever since. Anne Walker, our office manager, and Heather Kirby, our senior assistant have been with us over two decades. Veterinary medicine has changed through the years and we have grown with it. As our small animal practice became increasingly busy, we gave up the farm animal work. One thing that has remained consistent over the years, however, is our commitment to keep the clinic grounded in family practice values and responsive to local needs
