A heartfelt thank you to Dr. Sammy McFaddin, D.V.M.

Dr. Sammy opened our doors on August 8, 1980, and has spent over 40 years devoted to the health and happiness of pets in our community. His compassion, expertise, and dedication have shaped the heart of our clinic.

Though now semi-retired, Dr. Sammy still stops by from time to time—offering guidance, sharing stories, and reminding us all why we do what we do.

Outside the clinic, he’s found a new adventure: traveling the country as a respected referee for national shooting tournaments. It’s just another example of his passion, precision, and lifelong drive to serve with integrity.

  • "I’m not a regular client at Eatonton Vet, but when my dog had a sudden reaction, they took him in right away and treated him with amazing care—better than some ERs I’ve been to. I’m so grateful for the kind, attentive staff. Highly recommend!"

    -Zachary M.

  • "I can’t say enough good things about this place! Our fur baby had to lose an eye (not their fault), and the care we received was incredible—updates, calls from the vet, and so much kindness. The front office is friendly, calming, and responsive. We've also boarded our two pets here and knew they were in great hands. Truly thankful for the whole staff!"

    -Jenny B.

  • "Amazing experience and great staff. This was the only vet clinic in my area to take my sick kitten in for an exam to find out what was wrong the same day. Super time efficient and didn’t cost me an arm and a leg. Definitely recommend this clinic!"
