A Message from the Owner:

Hess Ridge Animal Hospital was built on ideas developed over years of experience, bringing together my vision for how veterinary care should be provided to a local community. It became my dream to open an animal hospital where the pet’s health and client experience ALWAYS comes first. It’s my belief that independently owned practices benefit the client, patient, and community by allowing flexibility to provide consistent and personalized care, top-tier client services, and trustworthy medicine. Our staff will treat you and your pets the exact same way we treat our friends and families and we hope you leave happy and confident in choosing us to be your pet’s medical provider. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members, and earning your trust and business.

Sincerely,
Michael Skarie, DVM
Owner and Founder of Hess Ridge Animal Hospital
