About us
Leander Veterinary Clinic is a well-established, energetic, private, small animal hospital in Leander, TX- Just 15 miles north of beautiful Austin.
Dr. Samuel Morehead recently celebrated his 10th Anniversary serving the Leander community by opening his 8000 sq ft small animal hospital. The new, state-of-the-art facility is equipped to care for hospitalized and sick patients and perform advanced dental procedures, soft tissue, and orthopedic surgeries.
Dr. Morehead at Leander Veterinary Clinic has cared for my many pets (cats and dogs, over about 3 decades) for years. He gives the very best of care to my much-loved pets – and gives you all the options for their care. He has seen us through some very difficult situations with the obvious compassion and concern for my fur babies. The staff mirrors his high standards and care as well. These are all great reasons we keep coming back to him. I know my pets receive the very best of care from him and the staff. I have recommended him and Leander Veterinary Clinic to friends and family, and I make that same recommendation to anyone who wants their pet to receive the best of care. They truly care about the animals in their care there. – C Crocker – Google Review
