Valley Creek Veterinary Hospital was built by Dr. Kendrick and opened in 2001. This hospital has a small animal and a large animal treatment facility. Currently Dr. Kendrick only practices small animal medicine and surgery and haul in equine and caprine medicine. The facilities can be viewed on the website listed above.

We employ one receptionist, two veterinary assistants (one of whom will stand for the LVT boards in June 2018) and two kennel assistants. The office hours are 6:30 a.m.-5:30 pm Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday, Wednesday 8-12 and Saturday 8-10. Generally, Dr. Kendrick works 8-5:30. Dr. Kendrick takes after hour’s emergency call for her hospital, Monday thru Thursday and every fifth weekend (Friday evening until Monday morning) as part of a shared Selma Vet Hospital Group agreement.

There is room in our local area for a large animal/mixed animal practitioner. There are relationships between Valley Creek Veterinary Hospital and several area cattle farms to purchase vaccines and dewormers. We are a supplier for Zoetis Leaders Edge accounts. There would be opportunity to introduce a cattle vet through these avenues and thus increase production and growth in our hospital. This added to the advantage that we are the only haul in type large animal facility in our county, would be incentive for an eager veterinarian to do well. The small animal practice has continued in a state of growth since opening.

Dr. Kendrick is interested in meeting with any new or recently graduated veterinarian, who has passed the Alabama boards that would be interested in full-time or part-time employment in this type of practice. Please contact her at 334-872-7577 or valleycreekvet@bellsouth.net.
