Welcome to Burke Animal Clinic: Veterinary Care in Burke, VA

At Burke Animal Clinic in Burke, VA compassion is our practice and wellness is our goal. We practice integrative medicine by offering traditional veterinary services alongside progressive, holistic and alternative therapies. Our progressive therapies are complementary to traditional medicine, providing us more resources to help keep your pet healthy and to treat chronic conditions and provide drug-free alternatives to pain management.  With this approach, we can help your pet maintain good health throughout his or her life.

Our mission is to use all resources available to us to keep pets healthy, heal pets when they become sick, and improve the quality of life of all pets.

Why Take Your Pet to a Veterinarian In Burke

Pets are like people in that they need regular medical care throughout their lives.  But, pets can’t tell us what’s wrong or where it hurts.  Regular wellness visits help us make sure they’re healthy and get the care they need throughout their lifetime.    

Pets age at a faster rate than humans. Frequent exams increase the likelihood of detection of abnormalities in your pet's health status early when they are more treatable.  If problems do arise we have a talented team of doctors and staff in combination with state of the art diagnostic tools to diagnose problems and come up with a treatment plan that works for you and your pet. 

Prioritizing Compassionate Care

At Burke Animal Clinic, we make your pet's happiness and quality of life our top priority. Our veterinarians and all of our staff take true joy in helping animals live better and feel better. We practice high-quality medicine, making sure you are aware of all treatment options.  We customize treatment for each patient.  The doctor works with you to come up with a treatment plan that works for you and your pet.  We strive to avoid invasive procedures and find holistic ways to treat your pet. We only prescribe medical treatments that are truly necessary and do everything we can to keep the focus on your pet's well-being.

Providing a Range of Options for Care

As your pet's veterinarian in Burke, we provide comprehensive care. Some of the most important services we provide for pets in the area include:

  • Preventative care. Preventive care is a cornerstone of good health. We recommend an annual wellness visit to include: physical examination performed by a veterinarian; fecal exams for parasites; canine heartworm tests; all needed vaccinations and periodic blood and urine tests. We also recommend staying on heartworm and flea/tick preventative 12 months per year.
  • Sick Care and Other Needs. We see pets for illnesses, injuries, pain management, international health certificates, diagnostic work, and behavior consultations. We offer a number of alternative and holistic therapies for allergies, arthritis, skin problems, pain management and a variety of diseases and health conditions
  • Urgent and Emergency Care. Anytime you are concerned that your pet is not acting normally, please give us a call.  Our staff can help you determine if your pet needs to be seen and whether or not they need to come in right away or go to an emergency facility.   Never feel embarrassed that you are overreacting.  Sometimes even a small thing may be an indication of a larger problem.   And, if it is just a small thing, won't you be relieved when you find out that's all it is!
