Orchard View Veterinary Center

Been taking ym dog to OVVC for a little over a year and have been happy with the care and treatment that my dog has recieved. The staff seem friendly and always willing to answer questions and address issues. I appreciate that I have only dealt with one veternarian, Dr. Statter. I believe that continuity of care is important and have experienced in other places, more disjointed care. Dr. Statter seems very knowlegeable and willing to answer any questions that I have had. My dog is enrolled in their wellness programm which is seemingly on the expensive side but comes with discounts and a piece of mind that I can bring my dog in at any time fore a checkup without additional charge. I will continue to be going to OVVC and expect to continue to recieve quality care.

A very good veterinary clinic. Very good care for my pet. The price to me is outrageously expensive, though. I would give it 4 stars but for that. I really do not feel I should go bankrupt just for a simple office visit. The quality of care is very high though so if you don’t mind paying an arm and a leg, it’s the place for you.

I’m brand new to the area, and brought two cats across the country with me. I was nervous about finding a vet who would care about me and my pets, wouldn’t push me to spend beyond what I was able and who would easily understand my cat’s condition and treatment options.
Orchard View was all of these. I’ve seen both doctors now on different occasions and have been impressed with both of them. I could tell when they walked in the exam room that they are there because they love pets. They were friendly, competent, compassionate and concerned about my pets. They both offered me options for treatment and took the time to talk to me without talking either over my head or down to me.
The clinic is clean, fresh and well laid-​out to minimize awkward cat-​dog encounters, and they seem to be stocked on the basics and able to get more uncommon medications or products in very quickly.
Also, I love the system that emails me my pets treatment records. My paper file cabinet, which is begging for mercy, thanks them!
Highly recommend.

Today, I lost my little dog. It was so comforting to have the folks at Orchard View Veterinary Center to count on. They took such good care of her, wrapped her up in a fuzzy blanket and my little dog slipped peacefully away while being held by my daughter. I can’t thank them enough for their compassion and care.

Great clinic, super caring– a real find! We are new to town and the whole staff went out of their way to make us feel welcome. They can also get you in quick. Everyone there is very personable, and they takes thier time with the patients. (woof) She also follows up on her patients religiously. We are happy to find this great place on the first try! They are very clear about what the charges will be and there are NO suprises. The rates seem fair for Salem.
The office is very clean and stocks Royal Canin, my dogs favorite food, and it is stocked in Large bags, which are getting harder to find.
You will love Dr. Lipscomb if you give her a try.

I recently switched to Dr. Chris Lipscomb, owner of Orchard View Veterinary Center. We came to her at a very trying time near the end of one of our beloved dog’s lives, and I am so thankful we found her. She is personable, kind, gentle, but strong and skilled. In our discussions she understood my preferences – to partner in providing care, so I like to know information, ask questions and get answers but not be talked down to or seen as an annoyance – and she and her staff have been wonderful.
The clinic is brand new (although she has ten years experience), beautiful, and well outfitted.
I can’t recommend her highly enough. She is now the health guardian of our furry family!
Do be aware she only treats dogs and cats.
