We know that your pet is an important part of your family. We also know that you want them to have the best in veterinary care. And that's why we're here.

Georgia Veterinary Specialists is a multi-specialty referral practice and 24-hour emergency facility committed to providing the highest quality veterinary care for your pets. The GVS team of board-certified specialists works in collaboration with primary care veterinarians throughout Metro Atlanta and surrounding communities to diagnose and treat complex, challenging, and often life-threatening pet health problems. Veterinary specialists undergo four years of advanced training following the completion of their veterinary medical doctoral degree. This training includes an internship as well as a residency, typically in an academic environment or large specialty hospital. The doctors then complete rigorous qualification procedures and examinations by their specialty examining board in order to be called "board-certified specialists." It is this experience, combined with our range of specialists and our state-of-the-art facility, that allow us to focus on the goal we share with you and your veterinarian -- enabling your pet to live a longer and healthier life.

Patient of the Month
Twan
Meet Twan. This 6-year-old Belgian Malinois has two goals in life: get the bad guys, and protect his handler, Sgt. R.L. Frank. Recently, Twan, who is also a sworn office of the DeKalb Police Department, was in pursuit of both of his goals when he was shot in the snout. He was referred to Georgia Veterinary Specialists from North DeKalb Veterinary Clinic. At GVS, veterinary surgeon Dr. Lori MacDougall removed 10 bullet fragments from his nose and stomach. No one was more concerned than Sgt. Frank, who never left his side except for during surgery. Not just his partner on the job, Twan also lives with the officer. Just a few months after his surgery, Twan was cleared to go back on the job. Good thing. In the three and half years the K-9 has been on the force, he’s helped take more than 67 people into custody and aided in $1.6 million in drug apprehensions.
