Get to Know Us at St. Matthews Animal Clinic

St. Matthews Animal Clinic is a special place—with lots of special people, including our staff of experienced veterinarians who are passionate about pet care! The clinic was founded by Dr. Bruce Catlett, a man who was very dear to his clients because of his willingness to help everyone who came to the clinic. He was known for his big heart and his passion. Although Dr. Catlett died in 2001, he is still an inspiration and a reminder of the clinic’s long-term commitment to the community and to the region’s animals.

Dr. Mike Schardein bought the clinic in 2002. Since then, the facility has been extensively updated with ultrasound equipment, laser therapeutics, and advanced post-surgical facilities. We still focus on providing the kind of caring service that Dr. Catlett modeled. We want to stay in touch and know how our patients are doing, and we try to accommodate emergency situations through our later hours.

Of course, we also boast a very wide range of service offerings, including internal medicine, senior pet care, preventive care, vaccinations, general veterinary surgery, orthopedic surgery, laser surgery, therapeutic laser treatment, pet dentistry, radiology, pet pharmacy, ultrasound imaging, laboratory, nutritional counseling, hospitalization, pet boarding and medical boarding, pet grooming, and pet day care.

St. Matthews Animal Clinic aims to be your one stop shop for animal care. Conveniently located in the heart of St. Matthews, we like to say we are The Clinic with a Big Heart—In the Heart of St. Matthews. Visit our new client page or contact us for more information.

“Friendly and knowledgeable staff‚ the office visit was affordable and reasonable. I enjoyed not getting pushed into buying unneeded products‚ extra shots‚ or anything that I did not intentionally come in for.”
