Community Affairs











           Somerset Animal Hospital was established in 1975 and has been supported by clients from as far away as Baltimore, Maryland and Norfolk, Virginia. Mainly however, it has been the folks of of the local three counties that have allowed us to continue to practice medicine since the practice's inception.

           As with any successful endeavor there  must be an attitude of sharing and cooperation. Below are just a few photos of ways that we are able to thank the community for their  generous support over the years!!!
