CityVet Network of Veterinarian-Owned Practices Expands with New Clinic in Virginia Beach

CityVet, a network of 51 veterinarian-owned practices offering unique programs serving people through pet care with kindness for the last 25 years, has announced the grand opening of its second location in Virginia Beach. Located at 2164 General Booth Blvd, the Red Mill clinic will officially open its doors on December 9, becoming the second clinic in the area led by Dr. Erica Feiste.

The new clinic will offer comprehensive veterinary services, including preventive care, diagnostics, advanced surgical procedures, and dental services. The clinic is located in the vibrant and growing Red Mill/Hickman Place neighborhood, positioning it as a convenient and trusted resource for the community and their pets.

The clinic also serves as a bridge for pet owners in need of advanced care but seeking a lower-cost alternative to emergency surgery, offering services such as wound care, C-sections, and foreign body surgeries.

CityVet Red Mill will be led and owned by Dr. Erica Feiste, who also owns the CityVet Virginia Beach clinic. With over 17 years of veterinary experience in Hampton Roads, Dr. Feiste brings a wealth of expertise and dedication to her second location. Known for her advanced surgical skills, she routinely performs complex procedures such as splenectomies, foreign body removals, and cesarean sections. As a former veterinary school professor, Dr. Feiste is passionate about mentoring her colleagues and sharing innovative techniques to elevate the standard of veterinary care.

On opening her second CityVet location comes a sense of confidence and excitement for Dr. Feiste.

“This time feels much less stressful because we know what to expect,” she said. “CityVet handles everything I don’t want to do, allowing me to focus on what I love most, caring for pets and their families. Not to mention, the home office team is phenomenal, and I wouldn’t have opened one practice, let alone two, without their guidance and support. Expanding to Red Mill allows me and my team to continue fostering these relationships while addressing the growing demand in the area.”

“We are thrilled to open a second CityVet location in Virginia Beach, continuing expanding our presence in this vibrant community,” explained CityVet president and CEO David Boguslawski. Dr. Erica Feiste’s exceptional leadership, advanced skills, and dedication to fostering strong relationships with both clients and colleagues make her an ideal partner. Her contributions have been invaluable, and her commitment to delivering high-quality care ensures that Red Mill will be a trusted resource for pets and their families.”
