Dr Tim, He is so good with my pups kind and caring which my dogs picked up on. Dr Tim was the vet that brought both dogs into the world. He saved my oldest dog Ellie Mae when she was born he saved he life. Both of my dogs are so at ease when I take them in for care. Im talking this last visit both dogs fell asleep before the Dr came into the room, that is how relaxed the dogs were. I had been taking the fogs to another vet because is was closer to home.
The dogs would tremble and try to hide under me waiting for that other vet. Not good I thought so we are now happy patients of Dr Tim Masons. The Staff at Lewis Animal are the best. They do a really fantastic job and care about the pet as much as Dr Tim. I highly recommend Lewis Animal hospital.

Finnegan despite his senior years still has the energy of a puppy! All thanks to the wonderful care he receives at Lewis Animal Hospital. Recently Finn underwent surgery on his eyelid and he recovered quickly and was comfortable. All my questions are always answered, and I am greatful to know Finn receives the best of care for routine health checks and surgical care when needed at a fair and reasonable fee.

My animals have been seeing Dr. Mason for years. He has treated two of my dogs for chronic illnesses so I have spent a lot of time there. Excellent care, friendly staff, Dr. Mason explains everything thoroughly, and most of all they are reasonable.

They are great with my pups! Prices are good and care is reliable. They work hard to get you in when you need care ASAP! We had a dog we lost this past fall and they were straight up with us and I appreciated that. They could have recommended things that would not help but instead chose to give us recommendations that were real. We ended up losing him but their honesty and care was appreciated.
