Wellness Care
Our wellness exams focus on preventive care through comprehensive physical exams, medical history reviews, and tailored health plans. We assess vital signs, dental health, and organ function while providing owner education on nutrition and home care. Early detection of potential issues allows for timely intervention, helping pets maintain optimal health throughout their lives.
Vaccinations
We create customized vaccination schedules based on pet type, lifestyle, and regional disease risks. Our core and non-core vaccines protect against common illnesses while booster shots maintain immunity. We follow strict safety protocols and provide catch-up plans for pets behind on vaccinations, ensuring comprehensive disease prevention for cats and dogs.
Dental Care
Our dental services include professional cleanings, oral exams, and treatment for periodontal disease. We use advanced diagnostics to identify hidden issues and offer home care guidance for maintaining oral health. Severe cases receive surgical interventions like extractions while emphasizing pain management and post-operative care to ensure pets' comfort.
Surgery
We perform routine and complex surgical procedures with pre-anesthetic evaluations and continuous monitoring during operations. Our post-operative care includes pain management protocols and suture care instructions. The team handles soft tissue surgeries, orthopedic procedures, and emergency interventions while maintaining strict sterility and safety standards in modern surgical facilities.
Exotics Care
Specialized care for birds, reptiles, and small mammals includes wellness exams, nutritional counseling, and species-specific diagnostics. Our team addresses unique health concerns through behavioral consultations and habitat recommendations. We provide surgical treatments and emergency care tailored to exotic animals' physiological needs while educating owners on proper care practices.

Ive been taking my fur babies for the past 6-7 years and will continue using their service as long as I own any animals. Ive been very pleased with the handling and care they provided for my fur babies since they were a few months old. Their love towards my fur babies and keeping them alive and healthy is enough to keep me happy and loyal with them. Thank you.

Everyone I interacted with has been friendly and caring. They comforted me with the death of my cat that suddenly became ill and despite being a walk-in they made me feel as if I had been going there for years. I was so impressed with the treatment I had there that I made appointments for my other cats to establish them as patients at St. Francis. So, yes I will recommend St. Francis Animal Hospital to every pet owner I know in Augusta!

This was the BEST experience for me and Cinnamon. Dr. Crandle was informative and warm. She answered all my questions and educated me on new things. The receptionist during check in/out was very helpful and welcoming. This is where Cinnamon will be going for all her care

Thank you, St. Francis for your kind and compassionate treatment of our beloved Zelda. Although she would not recover, she went to sleep in my arms. The look of pain on her face replaced with a look of utter calm. It was what we needed to see to add to our joyful memories of her. You were wonderful, I highly recommend.

From saving my dog from a stranger poisoning him to creating an emergency ICU for my goats, these guys have gone above and beyond for their patients. Their VIP plan is amazing and my animals have always been in the best of care. I stayed with them 9 years until I had to move. It was quite sad to leave and know I won't get this level of amazing care anywhere else. I'm tempted to travel back just for their great care!
