Our Philosophy
The "Slow Down" Difference in Pet Medical Care
In a world of assembly-line veterinary visits, Elite Veterinary Services stands apart. Our "slow down" model means every appointment is given the time it deserves. We listen to your concerns, explain our findings in plain language, and work with you to build a wellness plan that fits your pet's life. This approach is not just a philosophy; it is the foundation of every clinical decision we make. Our team, led by Dr. Serina Doolittle and supported by certified veterinary technicians with extensive backgrounds in oncology, ophthalmology, medical rescue, and rehabilitation, brings both depth of knowledge and genuine compassion to each visit. For Savannah pet owners seeking a trusted veterinarian who treats their animal as a cherished family member, this is the care you have been looking for.
About Elite Veterinary Services
Savannah's Locally Owned Veterinary Clinic
We are a small, privately owned veterinary clinic in Savannah, GA, and we think that matters. Without corporate quotas or volume-driven pressure, our veterinarians have the freedom to focus entirely on what is best for your pet. Our team of three dedicated veterinarians is backed by certified and registered veterinary technicians with experience spanning oncology, ophthalmology, neonatal care, and medical rescue rehabilitation. That range of experience means we can manage more complex cases in-house, reducing the need for outside referrals and keeping your pet in the hands of a team that already knows them. We serve families throughout Savannah and Hinesville, and we are committed to being a long-term partner in your pet's health.

Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions About Our Veterinary Clinic
Is Elite Veterinary Services a corporate-owned clinic or a locally owned practice?
Elite Veterinary Services is a privately owned, locally operated veterinary clinic in Savannah, GA. It is not affiliated with any corporate veterinary group or franchise. Being independently owned means our veterinarians are free to make clinical decisions based entirely on what is best for each individual patient, without corporate volume targets or quotas influencing their recommendations. This independence is central to the clinic's "slow down" philosophy and relationship-driven approach to pet medical care.What makes the in-house diagnostic testing different from what other vet offices offer?
Elite Veterinary Services performs most diagnostic testing on-site rather than sending samples to an outside laboratory. The clinic uses in-house blood machines, cytology equipment, and IDEXX 4DX testing for heartworm and tick-borne disease detection. Because results are available during your appointment, the veterinarian can assess findings and discuss a treatment plan with you the same day, rather than asking you to wait several days for results to return from an external lab.Does the clinic see pets with complex or special medical needs, such as heart conditions or post-rescue rehabilitation cases?
Yes. The team at Elite Veterinary Services has specific experience with complex and special-needs cases. Dr. Serina Doolittle personally cares for pets with congenital heart defects and juvenile cataracts. Shannon Dawson (CVT) specializes in medical rescue, neonatal care, and rehabilitation. Priscilla Tuttle brings multi-specialty experience in oncology and ophthalmology nursing. This depth of expertise allows the clinic to handle many higher-acuity cases in-house that other small practices might refer elsewhere.Which communities outside of Savannah does the clinic serve?
In addition to serving pet owners in Savannah, GA, the clinic also serves clients in Hinesville. These communities fall within the clinic's defined service area. If you are traveling from one of these areas, it is worth confirming your appointment details in advance so the team can prepare for your visit and ensure adequate time is set aside for your pet.
What types of surgery does the clinic perform in-house?
Elite Veterinary Services performs a broad range of surgical procedures in-house, including general surgery, soft tissue procedures, reproductive services, cosmetic surgeries, and limited orthopedic procedures. Having surgical capabilities in-house means your pet can be treated by the same team that already knows their health history, in a familiar and stress-reduced environment. For cases that fall outside the clinic's surgical scope, the team will discuss appropriate referral options with you.Is there a new client offer available for first-time patients?
Yes. Elite Veterinary Services offers a new client exam for $35. This introductory exam gives new patients and their families the opportunity to experience the clinic's personalized, relationship-driven approach to veterinary care without a high upfront cost. It reflects the clinic's commitment to making high-quality, locally owned veterinary services accessible to the Savannah community.How does the clinic handle pet insurance?
Elite Veterinary Services operates on a pay-at-time-of-service model. Clients pay for services at the time of their appointment, and reimbursement is then handled independently between the client and their insurance provider. The clinic does not bill insurance companies directly. If you have a pet insurance policy, you would submit your itemized receipt to your insurer after your visit to initiate the reimbursement process according to your plan's terms.
