At Village Veterinary Clinic, we're more than just your local veterinarian in Burke. We're your partners in ensuring your pet's health and happiness.
Village Veterinary Clinic was established in 1985 as a satellite clinic for a larger practice.
At the time, Dr. John Lonam was working as a relief Veterinarian. Impressed with Dr. Lonam's Veterinary knowledge and surgical skills, and cognizant of his well-established reputation in the Veterinary community, Village Vet's owner approached Dr. Lonam and his wife Anne with an offer to buy the practice.
Knowing that it needed an overhaul, the Lonams felt that their combination of experience and skills could fulfill the challenge, and on July 1, 1987 - Dr. Lonam's birthday - he and Anne took ownership of Village Veterinary Clinic.
Present Day
Since then, Village Vet has established itself as one of the most trusted veterinary practices in Northern Virginia, perhaps best known for providing an honest opinion for an honest price. We are committed to providing high-quality care throughout the life of each pet. In August 2024 the Lonams passed the torch to Dr. Lokesh Motanam, "Dr. Loki," placing their full confidence in his ability to continue the tradition of compassionate, top-tier care.
Village Veterinary Clinic is a general, small animal practice focusing on the care of cats and dogs. Our veterinarians are skilled in dealing with a broad range of issues. Our services and facilities are designed to assist in routine preventive care for young, healthy pets, early detection and treatment of disease as a pet ages, and complete medical and surgical care as necessary during a pet's lifetime.
Our Family
Many of our clientele have been with us from the beginning, and their children and pets have demonstrated the same loyalty. Our staff of skilled, caring veterinary professionals knows our clientele well and is dedicated to addressing the unique concerns of each pet and pet owner. We see our clients not as customers, but as part of our Village Vet family.
Our Community
At Village Veterinary Clinic, we love our community and strive to give back. We have partnered with many area rescue groups, providing wellness care, vaccinations, and surgical services to pets in foster care. We have supported athletic teams and events, school theatre and musical groups, all-night grad parties, shelter or rescue group fundraisers, donated goods and services for silent auctions, participated in community pot-luck dinners, and more.
In recent years Village Veterinary Clinic helped sponsor several international veterinary mission trips to Ecuador and the Dominican Republic. Dr. Lonam and Anne participated on each trip, along with a team of other veterinarians, technicians, and volunteers, to provide free medical and surgical care to pets and families who otherwise could not afford veterinary services.
