Tates Creek Animal Hospital
Dr. Katie Lacy grew up with a veterinarian for an aunt which exposed her to veterinary medicine from a young age. From "helping" with exams on her childhood dog. We are proud to offer standard and specialized care for your dog or cat, ranging from wellness exams to surgical procedures, if necessary.

Dr. Sullivan and Dr. Lacy personally consult with clients and patients to determine appropriate medical needs based on the breed, age, and overall health of each pet. Routine wellness checks not only help prevent disease; they also increase the chances that any serious illness will be detected earlier.
Services
Regularly scheduled well-animal visits are essential to maintaining the health of your pets. Routine wellness checks not only help prevent disease; they also increase the chances that any serious illness will be detected earlier, when treatment outcomes are best. Like humans, our pets tend to need more care during the beginning of their lives.
The echocardiogram (ECG) and electrocardiogram (EKG) are two painless ways that veterinarians can examine your pet's heart. A vet might order an ECG/EKG if your pet displays an irregular heartbeat or heart murmur during a physical exam. In addition, symptoms such as fainting could indicate a hidden heart problem that requires diagnostic testing.
If your pet experiences a sudden health emergency or is injured in an accident, rapid treatment is critical. That's why our staff is trained to provide the urgent care services your pet needs. By offering both standard and urgent care at our facility, our staff is better equipped to provide consistency of care by vets already familiar with your pet and its health history.
At Tates Creek Animal Hospital, we are eager to grow our family of clients and furry friends, so we're offering a referral program to provide a reward to our existing clients and potential future clients. If you refer a new client who comes in for an appointment at Tates Creek Animal Hospital, you will receive a $25 credit toward your next visit, and the new client will receive a $25 credit on their first visit!

I've been taking both my dog and my cat to Tates Creek Animal Hospital for quite a few years. All the staff and Dr. Sullivan are great. Friendly, attentive, professional; I trust them completely.

I wouldn't trust my pets with anyone more than the staff at Tates Creek Animal Hospital! We have visited/called/emailed so many times and they have been so kind every single time. Dr. Sullivan is nothing short of amazing. We also had the pleasure of meeting Dr. Lacy recently, who was fantastic. Take your fur babies here!

I am a travel nurse and i am constantly changing locations. Traveling with 2 dogs can be a challenge when looking for vet appointments. While in Lexington KY my girls needed vet attention. Tate’s creek animal hospital was able to see my pups in a timely fashion and the care they received was first class. Thank you to all the staff at Tate’s Creek for making me and my pups feel like we had been a client for years! ❤️

Dr. Sullivan has seen my dog since she was adopted as a puppy! She was great and super attentive through all the puppy struggles and now is a great vet to have for health prevention and maintenance with my grown up dog. We moved quite a bit further away, but we still make the drive to see her!

First time visit for a newly adopted dog. I was so very impressed with how efficient the process was. Everyone we met was so nice. I feel very comfortable bringing my newest family member here for care. Would recommend them to all. Great job. Sophie enjoyed it as well.!

The staff is knowledgeable, kind, and understanding when it comes to your concerns, questions, thoughts, etc on your pet's health. Dr. Sullivan took all the time necessary to provide my pet and I with a good experience. Everyone from the reception staff, vet techs to the vet... they all are wonderful and go above & beyond.

Recently we had to say “good-bye” to our dog Rocky. Dr. Sullivan and the staff were so so kind during this process. It was very touching when I received a card from The Lexington Humane Society notifying me that Tates Creek Animal Hospital had made a donation in Rocky’s name. This is a wonderful clinic for your pets.

Even though this vet is a little more pricey than some others, it’s for a reason! I absolutely love them and will bring my dog here as long as I live in Lexington. They sent us a welcome card when we joined and are always willing and able to fit my dog in for emergencies. Truly appreciate them.

One of the hardest things I’ve had to do was say goodbye to my beloved Dachshund, Wally. I recently moved to Lexington and did not have a vet, so I called the one closest to me. The silver lining of an awful day was the compassion, grace and caring nature of Dr. Sullivan and the staff at Tates Creek Animal Hospital. I started bringing my other dog there and they are incredibly professional, friendly and care about my fur babies as much as I do. I would recommend Tates Creek Animal Hospital to anyone in a second!
