Lakeside Veterinary Hospital is a fast growing 24 hour emergency hospital located minutes from Southern Illinois University in Carbondale Illinois. Demographically speaking, we are located right in the prime location to take advantage of the beauty and tranquility of the Shawnee National Forest. With a short drive to Cape Girardeau & St. Louis Missouri but also Paducah Kentucky, you can experience the best of both worlds with country and city living.

Our mission in Southern Illinois is to provide our client and surrounding veterinarians with 24 hour emergency care 24/7. We are also partnered with several smaller clinics to provide a variety of options for not only our clients, but also our support staff including veterinarians, if emergency is not an interested field.

 Being we a large emergency hospital, we are able to provide our clients and patients with state of the art equipment such as CT, advanced ultrasound, digital radiography, etc. We pride in being very up to date with the new standard of care in the ever so rapidly changing veterinary medicine.

 We would love to be able to speak with you in regards to what we have to offer for our associate veterinarians. Currently with competitive pay, location assistance, open scheduling, and many more additional incentives we have to offer, we set the bar for our region.
