EXPERTISE YOU NEED
COMPASSION THEY DESERVE
Like human physicians, a veterinary specialist has completed extensive and advanced training in a narrow field of medicine or surgery. Specialists routinely have four to six years of advanced training consisting of a one-year internship and a two to four-year residency beyond veterinary school.
Why Choose VVS?
From complex orthopedic, neurologic, and soft tissue procedures to ultrasound, chemotherapy, endoscopy, CT scans, and echocardiography, the team of Virginia Veterinary Specialists have one goal in mind: to provide a positive outcome for you and your pet. We strive to meet this goal by combining scientific knowledge, compassion, and concise communication.

I couldn’t be happier with their services so far!! Dr. Kevin Stiffler is going to save my pup’s leg after my vet wanted to take it! Took extra needed X-rays and told me 1000x’s more on what was really going on with my dog! If I ever happen to need their services again, I won’t hesitate to call!
