Husband and wife team Dr. John Worman and Dr. Paula Marrie purchased Gahanna Animal Hospital in 1981.

The staff is very caring and the last surgery was so successful that there have been no infections or problems with his ears. I would like to add that our vets (all are good but we prefer two in particular) are not quick to suggest tests and additional costs unless absolutely necessary. Calls are always returned and we never feel rushed when asking questions. Years ago when we lived 50 minutes fro...

DESCRIPTION OF WORK
Our cat has needed lifetime management and surgical intervention for a problem with his ears. He has had infections and multiple surgeries to keep the medical condition from worsening.

They are very thorough and good with our pets. He is fine, they ended up giving him a shot of Benadryl. We were guessing he got bitten by a spider.

We have probably used them for the past twenty years.  They've taken very, very good care of all of our dogs.  They've taken excellent care of my oldest son's dog.  They put him on some different medication this time and that seems to have worked, and worked well.   We've had to have a couple of our dogs put down and they've handled that for us.  What I really like is they have a special room wher...

DESCRIPTION OF WORK
We took my oldest son's dog over there about four weeks ago.  He's nine years old; he's a big dog.  He's had hip dysplasia and arthritis.  They put him on some different medication, so we haven't had to go to Cortisone shots.  They had to take a couple of sets of x-rays and everything else just to make sure that he had not had a pinched nerve or slipped a disc or something of that nature, because then you're talking an operation.  They ruled all that out.

I took my cat here years ago for a 2nd opinion, I was referred to Nancy Rich, but all are wonderful. Dr. Rich is an amazing, nonparallel diagnostician. There ended up being 12 stones in her bladder and she had an ecoli infection. She was a very a sick kitty. Dr. Rich will spend as much time with your pet as that animal needs. I cannot say enough good things about her. Pets are scared when they go ...

Dr. Nancy Rich was wonderful!  The purchase contract for my puppy required that I have tests done for hip/elbow dysplacia and thyroid for the OFA database  when the puppy had her second birthday. This is often required by responsible breeders so that genetic disorders can be tracked for future breeding decisions regarding a puppy's litter-mates.  The breeder, and her veterinarian, advised seeking ...

The vet prescribed an anti-inflammatory medication which quickly improved the leg condition over the course of several days. He scheduled a follow-up appointment and my dog was walking normally again. I have also taken my dog to doggie daycare at this facility,and all of the employees display caring attitudes to both the animals and human customers as well. I am very satisfied with my experiences ...

DESCRIPTION OF WORK
My dog was suddenly limping when I arrived home from work. I was able to take my dog that evening to see an orthopedic specialist who was very thorough and explained what he thought was going on with my dog's leg.

Dr. Nancy Rich is fantastic.  The prices are a bit higher than other places so I will shop around at times.  I found a place in Dublin that did a spaying of my Yorkie for almost half of Gahanna Animal Hospital.  But, when you animal is sick, GAH is always able to get us in ASAP.
