Who We Are

Founded in 1985 by Dr. Sarah Brown, Lillington Veterinary Hospital has been a trusted part of the Harnett County community for decades. After being named North Carolina Veterinarian of the Year, Dr. Brown retired in 2000, leaving her associates, Dr. Jan Batker and Dr. Amy Allen-Graves, to carry forward her vision of compassionate, high-quality veterinary care for every pet.

As a full-service small animal hospital, our mission is simple: to help every dog and cat lead a healthy, active, and happy life. We believe in going beyond medical care—offering guidance, education, and long-term partnerships that support both pets and their families.
