New Hospital Now Open!
Rainier Veterinary Hospital’s new, state-of-the-art veterinary hospital is now open at 815 Rainier Avenue South in downtown Seattle.
“Rainier Veterinary Hospital was founded more than 90 years ago as one of the first veterinary hospitals in the Seattle area,” said owner Dr. Debra Nicholson. “Our team felt that it was only fitting we pay tribute to the neighborhood that helped build this rich history with a flagship facility that will serve the community for decades to come.”
