BERRY ANIMAL HOSPITAL
Heritage Veterinary Practice
Serving the community's veterinary needs for over 50 years.
Berry Animal Hospital was established in 1952 by Dr. T.C. Berry who was a graduate of Auburn University's College of Veterinary Medicine. His son, Dr. William T. Berry continued the practice in 1975 after graduating also from Auburn University's College of Veterinary Medicine and the retirement of his father. The practice originated in downtown Ardmore until it was moved to its present location in 1978.
The original practice began in a rural community predominantly treating large animals. Due to continuing growth and changes within the community, Berry Animal Hospital now serves more companion animals with limited large animal treatment. The modern day practice offers many diagnostic tools to give your pets the best possible care.
