This Spring/Summer we are updating our hospital to better serve you. We are sorry for any inconveniences this may cause.

Knapp Veterinary Hospital

The Knapp Veterinary Hospital as founded in 1945 by Dr. J. Harold Knapp at 633 Oakland Park Avenue (across from the street from the current hospital). Doctor Knapp was born in Lebanon, Ohio, and graduated from the Ohio State University College of Veterinary Medicine in 1932. He remained on the faculty until starting his own veterinary practice. The Knapp Veterinary Hospital was one of the first veterinary practices in Columbus devoted to the care and treatment of pet animals. In 1948, the practice moved to the current address and has served clients and their pets ever since. In the fall of 1996, the Knapp Veterinary Hospital moved into a new hospital built behind the previous facility. This state of the art facility allows the doctors and staff to provide the highest quality veterinary care in a modern, efficient, and comfortable environment.


Our Mission:

The Knapp Veterinary Hospital dedicates itself to our clients and their companions by providing comprehensive, state of the art veterinary care in a professional, modern environment.
