Lisbon Road Animal Hospital was founded by Dr. Gallager in 1968. In 1973, Dr. Charles Scheib purchased the practice, and with the help of his excellent support staff the practice grew until 1995 when Dr. Robert Clark was hired as an associate. Dr. Clark bought into the practice the following year. It was shortly after this that the building underwent its first renovation.
Dr. Michelle Morgan joined LRAH in 2001, and purchased Dr. Scheib's remaining interest in the practice in 2005. Dr. Scheib continued on at the hospital until his retirement, and still occasionally fills in for us during the summer months. It was also during this time period that the hospital underwent several more small renovations. Over the years LRAH has continued to expand, ultimately increasing to four and then five doctors.
This growth prompted the opening of Riverside Animal Clinic in Lisbon Falls which served as a small satellite clinic staffed on a rotating basis by our LRAH staff from 2006 through November of 2014.

Services
Wellness Exams - At Lisbon Road Animal Hospital, wellness exams are more than just annual vaccination visits.
While vaccines will typically be updated at this time, regular physical exams are vital to maintaining your pet's health.
The wellness exam provides an opportunity for the veterinarian to examine the entire pet, detect early warning signs of illness or disease, answer any questions you may have, and make individualized recommendations for your pet.
It is also important to remember that our pets age much faster than people, and as a result more frequent check-ups may be recommended for pets under six months of age, or as they enter their senior years.

We have implemented some stress busters for you to employ to help your cat get through his/her visit.
1 We recommend you get your cat's carrier out a couple of weeks before your appointment.

One the most common concerns during the spring and summer months are fleas, ticks, and other biting insects.
Both fleas and ticks are determined to make our pet's lives miserable by causing lots of discomfort and even spreading such serious diseases as lyme and heartworm disease.
We will be happy to discuss the preventatives that we currently recommend for these and the other parasites that we come across in Maine.
Extreme temperatures during the summer months can cause heat stroke or heat exhaustion so we need to be very careful on those hot days.

They may be miniscule in size, but fleas are irritating, unpleasant, and can be difficult to eliminate from your home and your environment.
Fleas can also pose health risks to our pets including transmitting tapeworms, skin irritations, allergies to flea bites, and if left untreated, more severe health hazards.
A lot of us are unaware that people, as well as animals, can bring fleas into a home from an outdoor environment.
Wildlife and stray animals can bring fleas into your backyard which can then be easily picked up and brought indoors.
