Lakeland Veterinary Hospital
Lakeland Veterinary Hospital is a well-established, full-service small animal veterinary hospital providing comprehensive medical, surgical and dental care. We are conveniently located in the city of Lakeland along the St. Croix River Valley with easy access to the surrounding communities of Afton, Lake Elmo, Stillwater, Woodbury and Bayport along with the western Wisconsin communities of Hudson and River Falls.

The Lakeland Veterinary Hospital was opened in 1983 and operated by Drs. Blair Johnson and Jeanette Drury until their retirement in 2017. At that time they welcomed Dr. Heather Fairbairn to continue their high standard of care for your pets. Dr. Fairbairn's passion for Veterinary Medicine was formed here as she worked as a receptionist at the hospital during her high school years.

Highly recommend. The Doctors and staff have been great as they took care of our dog into his older years and to the eventual goodbye. Every step of the way the team here were caring, professional, and top notch. You can find Vets with bigger and fancier locations, but you can’t find one that does the job better than the team here.

I've been taking my furry family here for over 10 years. The care my kids have received is beyond exceptional. They explain procedures, treatment options, medications, etc. so well, and make sure you understand everything completely. They don't perform any unnecessary tests or x-rays, are conservative with their vaccines, and they spend all the time necessary to take care of your pet. You will never feel rushed. The entire staff is completely dedicated , and you can tell they love what they do. I live up north now, but make the 3.5 hour drive to make sure my kids get the best care. I recommend

Every single staff member was kind, patient and caring with our nervous dog. They took time letting her get comfortable, and answering our questions. By the end of our appointment our shy puppy was having so much fun she didn’t want to leave!

Our dog was going to a different vet clinic before this one with extreme itching. The other vets told us it was allergies and wanted us to spend tons of money to figure it out. We switched to this vet hospital and as soon as Dr. Heather looked at her, she knew exactly what it was and it was a simple fix. She had too much yeast on her skin which was causing the itching. She gave us some creams to put on our dog and her itching was cured. They are all very knowledgeable at this clinic. 10/10

I love this place! They are caring, respectful and definitely love their patients. They are great at educating pet parents, and are direct yet compassionate when delivering hard news. Lakeland Veterinary Hospital has been my choice for more than 25 years, and will be for as long as I have pets.
