We are an Emergency Mixed Animal practice that has been serving Creston and additional surrounding rural communities for 47 years. Our facility is fully equipped with an in-house laboratory and pharmacy, digital radiology (including a dental and portable unit), medical-grade laser, ultrasound (in house and portable) as well as a full array of large and small animal surgical equipment. We acknowledge the value of a work/life balance and ensure that the workload is shared fairly and evenly among team members by maintaining a rotating on-call/emergency schedule.

In 1996 Dr. Robert McLeod and John Wallis purchased the vet clinic and carried on Dr. Dave Perrin’s legacy by committing to a high standard in ethical and compassionate medicine. We are proud to say some of our employees have been with the clinic since the beginning and that the relationships formed at Creston Veterinary Hospital make our team more like family.
