Thompson Animal Medical Center

Thompson Animal Medical Center is a local- family-owned veterinary hospital providing the best care for your furry friend. We love pets and will leave no stone unturned to give them the best possible care and treatment

Drs. Tom Thompson and Jean Heyt met on the first day of veterinary school. After graduating from the Michigan State University School of Veterinary Medicine in 1976, Drs. Tom and Jean married in 1977. They practiced for two years in Madison before moving to La Crosse after falling in love with the area. The Thompsons converted a 100-year-old house on Mormon Coulee Road into their first clinic. By the second year of their five-year lease, their practice had taken off so much that they knew they needed a new clinic. When it opened in 1980, they were thrilled by the many, many people who attended their open house. Dr. Gary Wiegel purchased the practice in 2014, after having worked with Drs. Tom and Jean since 1997
