About Lassen Veterinary Services

At Lassen Veterinary Services, we’ve built our reputation on trust, compassion, and consistency. As a long-standing veterinary clinic in Susanville, CA, we’re proud to care for pets across multiple generations of families, offering personalized medical services with a warm, welcoming touch. Whether you’re here for a routine checkup or a more complex procedure, our team is here to support your pet’s health with professionalism and heart.

A History of Trusted Care

Lassen Veterinary Services was originally founded in 1974 by Dr. Thomas Pyle, who led the practice for 40 years. In 2014, ownership passed to Dr. Bob Nelson, who carried forward the clinic’s strong values of integrity, client trust, and dedicated animal care.

Today, our experienced team continues that legacy, providing modern veterinary medicine in a setting that feels more like family. Our clinic is located on Theatre Road in a calm, low-traffic area, making it easy and safe for pets and their owners to visit.
