As the last locally owned veterinary hospital in Jackson, Jackson Animal Hospital’s No. 1 focus has been and always will be its customer service. In a profession that is being overtaken by large corporations, and in an age where many services — including emergency services — are no longer available, Jackson Animal Hospital has made it a priority to be of full service to clients.

That includes wellness exams, orthopedic consults, chemotherapy, soft tissue surgeries, and laser and water treadmill rehabilitation.

It also includes after-hours emergency care — a service no longer provided by local corporate-owned practices — and that care can be the difference between life and death for a pet.

Over the last eight years the hospital has expanded to include four doctors with a cumulative experience of seven decades. Dr. Joe Wienman, one of the three owners, is on the board of the Animal Adoption Center.

Both he and Dr. Heather Carleton donate their time every spring and fall to participate in free spay and neuter clinics that are held on the Wind River Indian Reservation. They have also volunteered their time to the Teton Raptor Center since the hospital opened in 2015 and have enjoyed collaborating with such a dedicated team of people.

In the last few years the hospital has seen a dramatic increase in the number of clients who come in for second opinions and to pursue chemotherapy for their pets. According to Dr. Carlton, “Being able to work in a community with such devoted owners is one of the most fulfilling aspects of the job and makes Jackson a very special place.”

This spring the hospital hired a new practice manager, Dawn Touchstone, with 20 years of experience and a dynamic personality.

The clinic has also been voted “Best Veterinary Hospital” in Jackson by a community poll for two years running. Dr. Carleton has been named Employer and Citizen of the Year by the community.

The down-to-earth atmosphere, plus the friendly and talented staff, is the hallmark of Jackson Animal Hospital and makes it a very unique veterinary hospital that the Jackson community is lucky to call its own.

Our valley pets and their owners appreciate the hard work and dedication of Dr. Wienman, Dr. Carleton, Dawn Touchstone and their staff.
