Experience the Best in Animal Care
Our Mission
At Richland Veterinary Associates, we are committed to providing exceptional veterinary care to the pets of our community. Our mission is to combine compassion, expertise, and cutting-edge technology to ensure the health and well-being of every animal that walks through our doors.
Our History
Richland Veterinary Associates was established in 1968 by Dr. Thomas M. Dick. Under his leadership, the practice flourished, and in 1980, Dr. F. Lynn Sanderson joined the team as an associate. For over 30 years, the two veterinarians collaborated to provide high-quality veterinary medicine and surgery to the Johnstown area. In 2006, Dr. Dick retired, and Dr. Sanderson took the reins as the practice owner. Today, we continue to uphold the same values of excellence, compassion, and dedication to our patients and their owners.
