Shannon Animal Hospital

It’s that time of year again! Flowers and trees are blooming, the grass is turning green, there is pollen in the air, and unfortunately, allergies are running amuck. Because of this common springtime concern, antihistamines are a go-to for many people to curb their allergy symptoms, and sometimes they’re even used for our pets’ allergies as well.

I am very excited to be in Midland! I have been at Shannon Animal Hospital for about 5 months and have enjoyed getting to meet so many of you and your pets. Thank you for being so welcoming! Over and over I have heard you say that you have been coming to Shannon as long as you can remember. Some of you for your whole life. Dr. Brown, Dr. Adkins and Dr. Shannon before them have left a long legacy of compassionate care for the pets and people of this community and it is my hope and goal to continue that same compassionate care as we move into the future.

As I'm sure you are aware there are many things changing here at SAH. Not only are we losing two beloved and foundational leaders on the staff but we are training new staff members, expanding our work space and upgrading equipment so that we can continue to provide the very best of care to the furry members of your family. We hope that you will be patient with us during this time of growth. We have adopted a mission statement here at Shannon that says we are committed to providing quality, compassionate care to our patients through knowledgeable staff who can encourage, educate and support our clients as they make decisions for their pet's VERY BEST LIFE!

Veterinary Medical Clinics throughout the country are facing a rising demand for services which has led to overworked and burned out staff and not enough veterinarians to go around. Covid has changed our industry in big ways and Shannon Animal Hospital is no different. Please be patient and kind as we seek to make the changes necessary to continue providing the quality care you expect from us for your pets. Thank you for your support of Shannon Animal Hospital and for allowing us to get to know you and your pets!

Sincerely,

Dr. Lynn Johnson

Medical Director - Shannon Animal Hospital
