Keeping Animals Healthy is Our Mission
Trusted care, dedicated service, and a team who treats your pets like their own.
The History of Mt. Airy Animal Hospital
Mt. Airy Animal Hospital was founded in 1947, beginning a long-standing tradition of providing quality and personalized veterinary care. Over the next two decades, the hospital earned the respect and appreciation of the community through dedicated service and compassionate care.
In 1967, the founding veterinarian retired, and a new practitioner took over, continuing the legacy of excellence. Just a few years later, in 1970, the hospital changed hands again, ushering in a period of growth and modernization. Under this new leadership, the hospital not only maintained its strong reputation but also underwent significant renovations and expansions.

In 1975, a satellite office, Andorra Veterinary Clinic, was established to serve patients in the Lafayette Hill area. This clinic continues to provide veterinary care to this day. Further improvements followed, including a restructuring of the reception, treatment, surgical, and kennel areas, along with the addition of two new exam rooms. Despite the physical expansion, the hospital remained steadfast in its commitment to high-quality care.
In 1988, Mt. Airy Animal Hospital earned accreditation from the American Animal Hospital Association (AAHA), a distinction held by fewer than 15% of veterinary practices nationwide. This rigorous certification reaffirms our deep commitment to veterinary best practices.
The team has expanded further, bringing in new veterinarians who have contributed to the hospital’s growth and innovation. Under current leadership, the hospital has continued to embrace modern advancements while reflecting the diverse and welcoming community that is its home.
Today, the values established in 1947 remain at the heart of Mt. Airy Animal Hospital. The doctors and staff continue to demonstrate unwavering dedication, compassion, and commitment to bettering the lives of animals, their families and the community through collaborative and compassionate care.
What Our Happy Clients Are Saying
See why Mt. Airy pet parents trust us with their animals’ health, happiness, and well-being.

This clinic is the opposite of what that one negative review suggested. Dr. Niggemeier is caring, respectful, and extremely knowledgeable, and her staff are just as wonderful. They’re always friendly, helpful, and willing to go the extra mile for both pets and their people. It’s hard to imagine anyone walking away with a bad experience here, they truly care about every animal that comes through the door.

I love this clinic! Friendly, thorough, professional staff are excellent at following up even after the appointment.

Friendly, welcoming staff. Never feel rushed as the exam are thorough and I’m always given the opportunity to ask questions. Dr. Niggemeier is my #1 trusted go to source when it comes to my dogs care.

The fine people at Andorra vet clinic handled my cat's difficult health situation with love and attention. The vet was extremely experienced and very smart. This place is excellent, all stars.

We love coming here - the staff is great, and Dr. Niggemeyer is super. They work you in when your pet's ill and always call back promptly. They are a caring wonderful group of professionals.

Absolutely love Dr. Niggemeier and her team! We've used them for puppies, kittens, dogs, cats, and end-of-life pets and they're always wonderful and knowledgeable and compassionate. Couldn't ask for a finer vet service!

I had the painful task of having to have my beautiful Siamese euthanized due to blood clots and the staff handled the entire situation perfectly. They were humane and kind at a very much needed moment to be able to say goodbye to our family member.

Absolutely wonderful experience at Andorra Vet Clinic! Unfortunately, I came here to say goodbye to my best friend. The doctor was so understanding and comforting. She let me take my time and didn't do anything until I was ready. The prices here were more than fair and less than other vets in the area. The vet techs were professional, highly experienced, and were great at placing an IV on my less than cooperative dog. I only had to wait a couple of minutes for my appointment while the doc was finishing up with another patient. They really made a difficult process so smooth and easier for me. I will absolutely be back with my other dog to get him caught up on vaccines soon! Thanks to the entire staff for my fantastic experience!

Excellent, knowledgeable vet and patient with the animals. They just need more parking

I have been coming to Andorra (and the Mt. Airy location) for 20 years. As a lifelong dog owner and a professional pet caregiver, I have been to many of the other local vets. This place is by far the best around. The doctors are all excellent and the vet techs and other staff are all great. I genuinely enjoy bringing my pets for the annual visits and I am so grateful for their excellent care when my pets are sick. Everyone there is always so nice and helpful and friendly and their prices are very reasonable. Highly recommend.

Everyone here is awesome and they take time to explain my pets' health, offer options, and help the humans help their fur babies. Can't say enough about the talented and loving team here.

Dr Negemeyer is the best vet. Very conscientious and very smart. Also in excellent surgeon and goes above and beyond.

Doctor Andrea is very kind, thorough and knowledgeable. If Striper likes her I KNOW she's good.

Best vet place ever! Dr. N. gives the most thoughtful, current, high quality care to both of our Shiloh Shepherds over these many years. The techs and office folks are professional and helpful with daily appointments as well as serious situations. Our boys have excellent care here.

We adore our animals so we want the best. Andora Vet is great! We go there because of all the staff but especially Dr N. You're the very very best!

Great vets and techs here. They are excellent with our dogs and cats and I highly recommend them to anyone. They are also associated with mount airy animal hospital which is also excellent.

Such a great group of people who love animals. They are kind, patient and accomodating---especially during the pandemic.

I’ve been taking my boxer to Andorra Vet for 10 years because of a high recommendation from someone with very lofty expectations. I could not be happier with my choice a decade later! Dr. Niggemeier is the absolute best and the staff is so caring and knowledgeable. Thanks for taking the best care of my pooch!!!
