From Dream to Reality: The Heart Behind Lyman Vet
Our Story
Lyman Vet began with a simple but powerful belief: veterinary medicine should feel like home. For Dr. Hannah Allen, that belief took root when she was just eight years old and dreamed of one day helping animals live happier, healthier lives. What she didn’t know then was that her greatest impact would come not only from treating pets, but from truly caring for the people who love them.


After years of working in veterinary practices, Dr. Allen saw a need for something more. She envisioned a clinic that didn’t just deliver excellent medical care but created real, lasting relationships—with patients, their families, and the community as a whole. A space where warmth, trust, and authenticity were just as important as advanced diagnostics and clinical skill. That dream became Lyman Vet.
Built on Compassion, Fueled by Community
From day one, Lyman Vet was designed to feel different. Not cold or clinical—but calm, welcoming, and kind. We’re a people-first practice that values every relationship we build. Whether you’re stopping in for a quick check-up or facing a more serious health concern, we want you to feel seen, supported, and confident every step of the way.
We know veterinary care can be stressful, which is why our entire approach centers around respect, education, and empathy.
We explain every treatment plan in everyday language, and we always make time for your questions—because trust is the foundation of great care.
We’re proud to foster a team culture that’s collaborative, caring, and always striving to be better—for each other and for the families we serve.
The Team That Makes It Happen
Behind Lyman Vet’s mission is a team that truly lives it. Our Hospital Manager, Meredith Kendall, brings over 21 years of experience in the field, rising through the ranks from receptionist to assistant to leadership. Her passion for mentorship and team wellbeing shapes the joyful, balanced environment that our clients feel the moment they walk in the door.
Every member of our staff is hand-picked not just for their clinical expertise, but for their compassion, communication, and dedication to growth.
A Place to Call Your Pet’s Home
We’re honored to care for pets across Lyman, Wellford, Duncan, Inman, and beyond. But more than that, we’re proud to be a trusted partner in your pet’s journey—from puppy and kitten days to golden years. We believe that veterinary care should be a partnership—one built on mutual respect, open communication, and a genuine love for animals.
Lyman Vet isn’t just a veterinary clinic—it’s a reflection of everything we believe in: compassion, excellence, community, and heart.
