Dr. Richard Geary established Countryside Veterinary Clinic in 1997 to serve St. Anthony and the surrounding areas with his expertise in reproduction and large animal medicine. In later years, he expanded his practice to include small animals and exotic animals to better serve the community.
Today, we pride ourselves on our excellent customer service and capacity to attend to a multitude of animals, farms, and clients near and far. To better assist our clients, we can often make same day appointments, accept emergencies after hours, and make scheduled farm calls.
