Since 1995, our teams have been serving pets and families from Leesburg, Virginia, and our neighboring cities with emergency and specialty veterinary care. We’re proud that what began as a small emergency clinic with just a few doctors has become one of the largest, most advanced veterinary hospitals within 100 miles.

Just as your physician may refer you to a specialist, your primary care veterinarian may refer you and your pet to us for consultations, advanced diagnostics, surgery, or intensive care in our 9 areas of expertise.

With a state-of-the-art hospital campus – 2 buildings, nearly 30,000 square feet, 5 surgical suites, a cancer center, MRI/CT Imaging, a complete critical care/ICU, and more – The LifeCentre is unequaled.

Our veterinarians, many of whom are board-certified specialists, and a team of nearly 200 passionate veterinary nursing and patient care professionals – The LifeCentre offers unparalleled care.

The partner practices within The LifeCentre work together to provide comprehensive, collaborative, and compassionate veterinary care, and if your pet needs us – we’re here.

What Pet Owners Are Saying…

Dr. Church and staff were welcoming, kind, and very good to my little neurotic dog and my frazzled self in the wee hours of the morning…

We had to bring my old lady dog to the emergency room last night and I was really impressed with the staff! Dr. Church and staff were welcoming, kind, and very good to my little neurotic dog and my frazzled self in the wee hours of the morning. I can’t tell you how much we appreciate it ❤️ E.G.F -...

…Dr. Jim Taylor. We did a lot of research before selecting him as our surgeon, and we are so glad that we did.

My mini schnauzer just had a pretty big surgery to remove two fatty lipomas (one giant one) with Dr. Jim Taylor. We did a lot of research before selecting him as our surgeon, and we are so glad that we did. Everything went better than expected....pretty much as perfect as it could have gone. We...

I would recommend TLC to anyone looking for an emergency vet and will use them for all of my emergency pet needs in the future!

TLC was absolutely fantastic when I took my dog, Tucker, for an emergency visit. His face was so swollen he was unrecognizable and he had bloody stool. I called before we brought him in and the nurse was waiting for us when we arrived. We told the nurse all the information we had and she took...

“This Facility is Amazing”

This facility is amazing. We've seen the Dental and Oral Surgery Department. Kim at the front desk was extremely helpful and super sweet. Dr. Buelow is awesome. She is very knowledgeable and very talented. They were very accommodating to my pets needs in getting him in quickly. We drove a long way...

“THANK YOU for your consistent and wonderful care”

As a referring veterinarian, I just want to say THANK YOU for your consistent wonderful care. You have gone above and beyond for one of my patients for the past week, and the owner is so grateful—which has, in turn, meant I could focus on my other patients because YOU were helping them. You have...

“I Cannot Say Enough Good Things About This Specialty Practice”

As a referring veterinarian (and client), I have had the opportunity to work with Oncology (Dr. Gordon) department, and the Emergency Critical Care (Dr. McCorkle) Department. Every single experience, from the client service representatives, veterinary technicians, veterinary assistants, to all...

…beyond elated with the thorough care, patience and commitment…

We are a current patient at TLC and are beyond elated with the thorough care, patience and commitment they have shown both our family and our critical care puppy! M.B. Facebook

Feel assured that the Life Center will provide an extremely high level of care in a professional manner for your best friend and family member! 🙂

My dog had a potentially serious back injury on a Friday night and this center handled it beautifully! My dog was seen almost immediately and her level of care was of the utmost quality. The staff made the whole process as easy as possible, and the facility was pristine and perfectly clean. We...

I appreciated their frankness, and sensitivity…

I can't say enough about this place. I was there, years and years ago, in the old location, with a dog I'd adopted from the shelter. She was spayed by a vet, of their choosing, and when I brought her home, she started hemorrhaging. When I arrived, they asked me about her, how long I'd had her, etc...

They immediately came out and brought her back. I waited in their nice lounge (this entire facility is world-class animal care) and was given reports consistently.

EMERGENCY ON A SUNDAY... I took my beloved, sweet 14 year old American Pitbull Bella in at 3.pm. as overnight she collapsed on the kitchen floor and could not get up! Her hindquarters/legs would not work as she has had degenerative issues for the last year or so but was doing ok. Anyway, she could...
