About Lititz Veterinary Clinic
Welcome to Lititz Veterinary Clinic
Nestled in the heart of Lititz, PA, Lititz Veterinary Clinic is more than just an animal hospital—it’s a community cornerstone where pets and their people receive exceptional care, expert guidance, and heartfelt support. From routine checkups to complex surgeries and emergency interventions, our dedicated team brings together advanced medical skill and genuine compassion to ensure every furry, feathery, or scaly family member thrives.
Unparalleled Veterinary Expertise
At the core of our reputation lies an extraordinary level of surgical excellence. Led by board-certified surgeon Dr. Runnels—“the only board-certified surgeon in the area”—we tackle cases that many clinics simply can’t. Whether it’s a delicate orthopedic repair or a life-saving spay/neuter procedure for a tiny rabbit, Dr. Runnels’s skill “is amazingly skilled and has a huge heart.” Patients and owners alike trust her steady hands, knowing that each incision and stitch reflects decades of specialized training and successful outcomes.
Compassionate, Personalized Care
What truly sets us apart is the heartfelt kindness our team extends to both pets and their families. From the moment you step through our doors, you’ll notice the warmth of our reception staff, whose “kind and very patient” approach instantly eases anxious hearts. In times of loss, Dr. Bill goes the extra mile—literally handwriting letters of condolence, complete with inked paw and nose prints, and following up with personal phone calls. One grateful owner shared, “We received a handwritten, heartfelt, personalized letter from Dr. Bill along with some inked paw and nose prints,” a gesture that turned sorrow into a cherished memory of support.
Clear Communication and Collaborative Decisions
We believe that informed clients are empowered clients. Whether explaining a complex diagnosis or walking you through surgical alternatives, our veterinarians take the time to answer every question until you feel comfortable. As one client recounted, “Dr. Newman explained everything needed and options regarding the situation,” while another noted, “She spent time talking to me about the surgery and the alternatives until I was comfortable making a decision.” This transparent dialogue ensures you know what to expect at every stage, fostering trust and peace of mind.
Rapid Emergency Availability
Emergencies never wait for convenient hours, and neither do we. Our emergency intake team, led by Donna, stands ready to spring into action at a moment’s notice. When a frantic owner called late one evening, Donna was the first to respond: “Donna told me to get him there as quickly as I could,” and within the hour, the patient was under Dr. Runnels’s expert care. Whether you’re facing a sudden injury or a serious health crisis, count on us to squeeze you in—even on short notice—because saving lives is our top priority.
Comprehensive Surgical Services for All Pets
At Lititz Veterinary Clinic, “small” doesn’t mean simple. We pride ourselves on treating non-traditional companions—rats, rabbits, guinea pigs—with the same meticulous attention we give dogs and cats. One Flemish Giant rabbit owner praised our gentle expertise: “They were really good with our Flemish Giant rabbit… very gentle and thorough.” From exotic pets to pocket-sized critters, our surgical suite and staff are equipped to handle delicate anatomy with precision and care.
Transparent Pricing and Valued Investment
Quality veterinary medicine is an investment in your pet’s long-term health. While our fees may sometimes be higher than basic alternatives, we pair every quote with clear explanations of cost components and available options. Clients appreciate this openness—“They were very nice and professional…options as low as under $3,000”—and many agree that peace of mind and superior outcomes are worth the price. At Lititz Veterinary Clinic, you’ll never encounter hidden fees, only honest estimates and a commitment to customizing care to fit your budget.
Scheduling and Appointment Experience
We understand that your time is valuable, which is why we strive to keep appointments running smoothly. On busier days, you might experience a slightly longer wait, but most clients agree that exceptional veterinary care is worth a brief delay—“Yes, they are busy but so worth the wait.” Occasionally, surgeries must be rescheduled to accommodate urgent cases or complex procedures, but we always communicate promptly and work with you to find the next convenient slot.
