Services
Crater Animal Clinic is a full service veterinary hospital in the Central Point area. We treat both large and small animals. Our hospital was founded in 1970 and was originally a large animal-only practice. In 1976, Dr. Bob Addington started the dog and cat portion of the hospital and it has been growing in the Rogue Valley ever since.
At Crater Animal Clinic, we offer a variety of services to care for your pet. If you have any questions or would like more information on how we can care for your pet, please contact us today. Our staff will get a chance to talk to you and see if you are having any trouble with your pet. We will also go over diet, preventative medicine, and exercise to ensure that your pet is as healthy as possible.
He moved to the Rogue Valley in 1968 and graduated from Medford Senior High School in 1978. He attended Portland State University from 1978 to 1982 on a football scholarship. He continued his education at Oregon State University, graduated in 1984 with a B.S. in Zoology and a minor in animal science.
We work with PetInsurance.com. Pet insurance pays, partly or in total, for veterinary treatment of the insured person's ill or injured pet. Some policies will pay out when the pet dies, or if it is lost or stolen. As veterinary medicine is increasingly employing expensive medical techniques and drugs, and owners have higher expectations for their pet's health care and standard of living than previously, the market for pet insurance has increased.

Took one of my furry children here for the first time and was amazed. Most places we've tried in the past end up costing a lot of money for what seems like routine checkups and occasional medications. The vet and or vets assistant called us twice in the following 2 weeks after the visit just to make sure my boy was doing better and that he his! We found our new place for the hairy kids!

I like taking my dog to this vet. They are friendly, helpful, and informative. I like that I wasn't given a guilt trip because my dog had fleas, instead he was given a topical treatment and I was given info on flea treatments. I was also given the option to come inside with a mask on or stay in my car. Everyone there was nice and they clearly love pets.

My 13 yrs old dog was having disturbing symptoms and since Crater Clinic had his records I called and asked to bring him in. I was told no appointments available for a week but then they could only give me a work in appointment. I made time for 2:20 pm on April 20. I showed up at 2:10, parked in a parking lot with no shade or cover with a sick dog and called in as I was directed to do.
I was told there would be a wait as I was a work in appointment. After an hour I could tell my dog was in distress and recalled asking for an approximate time wait and was told if I didn't want to wait, i could try somewhere else. I then called two other vet clinics and they had nothing available, so I continued to wait. I again called into the office and was adamant that my pet was in need of immediate attention.
I was told they would have a doctor call me back, which he did. I explained the problems and he had a vet tech come to the car and carry my dog in. He was examined and when the doctor called me on my cell phone ( I was still in the car) we decided that the best decision was to not let him suffer as he was a very sick 13 yr old dog. This was approximately 4:00 pm, sitting in a very hot parking lot with a dying dog No canopy's or shade for the 8 or so others in the same position waiting.
This is inhumane. An animal who is desperately Ill should have been taken into the hospital and put in a kennel in cool conditions until a doctor could be available. I lost my best friend that day and no one gave a damn.
