About Allegheny Veterinary Services
The practice started in 2005 as an ambulatory only service known as Allegheny Equine Veterinary Servicie. In 2015, it was expanded to open a 5000 square foot hospital with a full service small animal hospital, equine haul-in hospital and additional ambulatory vehicles. The 5 year old facility has had extensive expansions every year since opening. The hospital has state of the art cloud software with online appointment capabilities and telemedicine capabilities, extensive in-house labs (Abaxis & Heska, including on site cortisol testing for ACTH stim and Dex suppression testing, progesterone, bile acids, Thyroid panels, clotting profiles), and well trained staff including RVTs. The small animal hospital features, new dental x-ray, new anesthesia monitors (including capnography) and dental station! The large animal hospital comes complete with padded recovery stall, stocks, ICU stalls, heated treatment area, paddocks and a separate treatment barn. The practice is equipped with digital x-ray, 2 digital ultrasounds, video endoscopy, surgery laser, therapy laser, tonometry, advanced dentistry equipment, irap/prp, and capnography. Laparoscopy is available for advanced breeding te...chniques and could be used for additional surgical services in both small and large animal. We pride ourselves on combining high quality medicine with concierge level service. Annual exams are a standard and help us build long lasting relationships with our clients. The practice has a great reputation for excellent medicine and we often see small animal referrals from neighboring clinics with large animal clients travel from a two-hour radius. Two ambulatory vehicles are available for farm calls. Appointments for both the large and small animal patients are Monday – Friday. Emergency service is offered to our regular clients. Support staff includes, a large animal coordinator and practice manager (with the practice 14 years) and three receptionists. Five excellent technicians are available to assist with small and large animal in-clinic cases. We are a growing practice and have established excellent training programs and hospital protocols for both the large animal and small animal staff. All staff members have required continuing education and we have an excellent staff retention rate. Area Elkins is located adjacent to the million acre Monongahela National Forest. Canaan Valley, Timberline and Snowshoe mountain ski resorts are within our regular practice area. The area is rural and an outdoor mecca with abundant native streams, hiking and skiing. A small liberal arts college is located here and hosts a heritage arts festival for ten weeks every summer. Cost of living is low in this area.
