50th Anniversary Reception Planned This Month for Local Veterinarian Dr. Pat Hitchcock DVM

The staff at LavoniaAnimal Hospital are inviting the public to help Dr. Pat Hitchcock celebrate 50 years of veterinary practice in Lavonia.

Dr. Hitchock first set up his practice at his location on East Main St. in 1974 and since then has served hundreds, if not thousands, of animals including family pets, livestock, and wildlife.

On August 11, a drop-in reception will take place at Lavonia First United Methodist Church Fellowship Hall from 2p to 4p.

There will be light refreshments and if you have photos of you and your pets he has treated over the years that you’d like to share, you are asked to bring them so they can be posted on a large board for him to remember everyone.

There will also be a framed photo mat for everyone to sign.

You can also stop by Lavonia Animal Hospital anytime and purchase a 50th-anniversary t-shirt.

If you need more information, you can contact Lavonia Animal Hospital at 706-356-8116.

Again the 50th anniversary drop-in reception for Dr. Pat Hitchcock takes place Sunday, August 11 from 2p to 4p at Lavonia First United Methodist Church.
