Low-cost vet clinic to open in Greenfield

GREENFIELD — Noah’s Animal Hospitals plan a new low-cost veterinary clinic to open Feb. 15. All Pet Health Care by Noah’s, a low-cost, full-service veterinary clinic, opens at 2195 U.S. Highway 40 West. The clinic is a sister clinic to Noah’s BrandywineAnimalHospital. 1479 N. State St., and the two facilities will work together and refer clients to each other, said manager of marketing Jennifer Judd.

Noah’s Animal Hospitals is the largest family-owned group of veterinary clinics in Indiana, with eight locations throughout central Indiana, Judd said.  The majority of Noah’s clinics are accredited members of the American Animal Hospital Association, a distinction held by only 13 percent of all veterinary hospitals nationwide, according to the Noah’s website.
