About
In 1975, Dr. Andrew Peterson opened the Enderlin Veterinary Service in a storefront armed with just a truck and an exam table. Four years later, he opened the Enderlin Veterinary Clinic on Hwy 46. Forty-three years later, Dr. Sara Fridrych became the owner to continue the legacy of high quality care our clients know and love.
