Park Place Animal Hospital
Mission and values
Park Place Animal Hospital is a locally owned veterinary clinic serving the Lake Oconee community from its warm location on Park Avenue in Greensboro, Georgia. This full service veterinary medical facility is devoted to the health of dogs and cats. The professional staff strives to provide the best possible medical, surgical and dental care for highly valued patients. Their mission revolves around responsible pet ownership and preventive health care. Rather than waiting for illness to strike, the team focuses on wellness exams, vaccinations, parasite screens and education so that local pets can live healthy, happy lives.
Park Place takes pride in being “locally owned and operated,” allowing it to keep a personal touch that larger corporate chains often lack. The family atmosphere means clients see familiar faces and know that their pets’ well‑being is always the top priority. Whether clients come from Eatonton, Greensboro or one of the nearby lake communities, they can expect attentive service and genuine compassion.
Full service care for dogs and cats
Inside the hospital, pets receive thorough head‑to‑tail evaluations. The doctors perform complete physical examinations and discuss any concerns with pet parents. Digital radiographs and in‑house ultrasound provide fast, precise images to guide diagnoses. In‑house bloodwork delivers results within about thirty minutes so treatment decisions can be made quickly.
Park Place’s services cover every life stage. Puppies and kittens can enroll in tailored wellness plans that bundle exams, intestinal parasite tests and vaccines into easy monthly payments. Adult dogs and cats receive annual or bi‑annual exams, blood panels, vaccines and discounts on dental cleanings. The basic wellness option provides two examinations a year and discounts on additional services for just twelve dollars a month, making preventive care affordable for families.
When pets need surgery, the hospital uses monitoring equipment comparable to that found in human hospitals, tracking heart rate, blood pressure and oxygen saturation. Spay and neuter procedures are performed with EKG, temperature and pulse oximetry monitoring, and an intravenous catheter is placed for fluid support. Dental cleanings include full‑mouth radiographs and a comprehensive assessment of gums and teeth. If a pet ever reaches the end of its life, the clinic offers both in‑clinic and in‑home euthanasia to minimize stress and allow families to say goodbye in comfort.
Meet the team
Dr Parker Collins is the primary veterinarian at Park Place Animal Hospital. A proud University of Georgia College of Veterinary Medicine graduate, he previously worked in general practice during the week and emergency medicine on weekends. He and his wife Charlee, a registered veterinary technician, have a son named Henry and a household of pets that includes an English Springer Spaniel named Huck and two cats. Their personal experience as pet parents translates into genuine empathy for every dog and cat that walks through the door.
Comfort, technology and emergencies
Pets often feel anxious at the vet, so Park Place has designed its facility to be clean, welcoming and comforting. Warm bedding, IV pumps and constant monitoring help pets relax when they are hospitalized. The clinic stocks a full line of flea, tick and heartworm medications and uses modern vaccines that include protection against leptospirosis in dogs and a special rabies vaccine for cats. The in‑house laboratory can run phenobarbital and thyroid tests to ensure that seizure and thyroid medications are correctly dosed. Park Place also microchips pets and provides free initial exams for animals adopted from local humane societies.
Emergencies happen at the most inconvenient times. The hospital’s digital x‑ray, ultrasound and blood analysis equipment allow the team to provide rapid, critical care. For after‑hours emergencies, they provide guidance and referral information, ensuring that pets receive timely attention when it matters most. Park Place accepts major credit cards and CareCredit, making it easier for families to manage unexpected veterinary expenses.
Community, education and fun
Park Place Animal Hospital believes that education empowers pet parents. The FAQ on their website explains topics such as vaccination schedules for puppies and kittens, parasite prevention and the benefits of spaying and neutering. They encourage owners to ask questions, and the doctors spend time discussing everything from nutrition to behavior. The hospital’s involvement in the local community also includes offering free first exams for newly adopted pets and promoting humane society adoptions.
While veterinary medicine is serious, the atmosphere at Park Place is friendly and upbeat. The team shares stories about their own pets and laughs with clients about the antics of rambunctious puppies and lazy senior cats. They celebrate with families when a pet recovers and offer hugs when it is time to say goodbye. This approachable, down‑to‑earth attitude makes visits less intimidating and helps build long‑term relationships.
