Compassionate Care For Your Dog or Cat


Great Southern Animal Hospital has been a welcome facility for pets and their owners for the past 66 years. The long-term health and comfort of your dog or cat is very important to you, and we put their needs first when you trust your pet with us. Dr. Dustin Sears, and our friendly staff of veterinary technicians welcome patients from all over Columbus, Ohio, and surrounding areas, whether you need a check-up or exam, or a necessary surgical procedure.

We see dogs and cats of all ages, breeds, and sizes, and have the knowledge and experience to handle their specific needs. We welcome animals to see us for their yearly examinations, vaccinations, along with dental care. We also have a Laboratory to conduct complete blood chemistry profiles, radiographs, heartworm, feline leukemia, FIV, intestinal parasite examinations as well as urine, allergy and cardiac screening.

    Okay dude straight up I took my my corgi Mr. Ravioli here to get him fixed and they did an amazing job! He hardly even tried to mess with his stitches and we was in and out in a few hours. The staff was super friendly and they actually care about the animals and their well being. I can't say enough good thing about the Great Southern Animal hospital.

    Dr. Sears is all that!  Compassionate, experienced, and has the bedside manner needed for the patient and the patient's caretaker (I specifically don't say owner, because I don't own my cats! ;).  Beyond that, his extraordinary capabilities are NOT undermined by his support staff, who are every bit as dedicated and compassionate.  You simply won't find a better healthcare provider for your beloved pet - full stop.  I only hope that Dr. Sears enjoys his work immensely, because I don't know what I'd do if he ever retired.  Mina and I would be totally lost

    Today was my first visit to Great Southern.  Such a great experience.  The entire staff was amazing.  Dr Sears was great and patient with my killer Chihuahua . No pressure for additional services.  Highly recommended.
