Services
Our Portsmouth veterinary hospital has been committed to caring for local animal companions since 1968. We are a small, privately owned animal vet clinic with two locations to serve the needs of you and your pets in Portsmouth, Chesapeake, Suffolk, Hampton Roads and Tidewater areas. Our veterinarians focus on providing personalized care that meets your pet's needs and your expectations.
Churchland Animal Clinc was started in 1968 by Durbin Donahue, VMD. When Churchland was surrounded by farms, he treated both small and large animals, and it was not unusual to find horses and other large "critters" being cared for in our parking area. As the Churchland farms have faded, the era has passed for large animal medicine at Churchland Animal Clinic.
Churchland Animal Clinic provides comprehensive pet wellness services for the Portsmouth pet community. From vaccinations and pet dental care to microchipping and spay/neuter surgery, our Portsmouth veterinarian is passionate about proactive veterinary care. Our wellness care philosophy is simple: preventing illness not only helps your pet live a longer, healthier life, but also reduces the expense of veterinary care.

My sweet Seraphina crossed the rainbow 🌈 bridge. I was definitely an emotional mess. Everyone in the office is amazing. Ryan & Dr Wassell truly care about their patients. From her first visit as a kitten 13 years ago to her last heartbeat She was loved❤️

My husband looked up vets since we recently moved here, saw good reviews so we took all 3 of our kitties here. The doctors & staff took very good care of them for their yearly checkups & vaccines.

Never got to see vet. Called to become new patient and was told had to pay non-refundable $82 for first exam at the time appt. was made!! NEVER have I run into this at a Vet before. Ridiculous unless that’s how they turn people away since you can’t get in for 2 weeks and you have a sick pet. They lost my business. Only proves what previous reviews said about the money being more important than the pet!!

I’ve used Churchland Animal Clinic for a number of years & several pets. They’ve always been sensitive & attentive to my pet & watchful for any changes in her health I might not notice. I trust them.

This was my very first time visiting a animal clinic so I didn't know what to expect. But everyone there was so nice and extremely friendly. I felt comfortable being there with my new baby kitten. They took really good care of him. I would go back for sure!

The staff here have always been amazing, very friendly, caring and professional. Never a problem getting an appointment either. I had to have my cat euthanized yesterday and they showed the greatest level of compassion, they even gave us an impression of her paws with her name on a plaque, what a great memento!!! I never would've thought of that. Thanks for all you do, it makes a difference!

We entrust our sweet little dog to the wonderful folks at Churchland Animal Clinic. We know that he will receive nothing but the best care with them. Each person makes us feel welcome and important and treats our Fur Baby as if he were their own.
