Our team of experienced veterinarians and passionate support staff is committed to delivering exceptional, compassionate care in a calm and welcoming environment. We treat your pets like family—because to us, they are.
Our Holistic Approach to Veterinary Care
We believe that the best outcomes come from looking at the whole animal, not just isolated symptoms. That’s why we’ve designed our practice around an integrative approach to Columbus veterinary care, combining modern diagnostics and treatments with time-tested holistic therapies.
Our services include traditional Chinese medicine, veterinary chiropractic, nutritional counseling, acupuncture, ozone therapy, laser therapy, and much more. We work closely with pet owners to understand their goals and concerns, and we build personalized care plans that align with both your pet’s needs and your family’s values.
What Makes Us Different
There are many Columbus veterinary clinics, but very few that offer the depth and range of holistic care that we do.
Customized Treatment Plans
Every pet is different, and we respect that. We take time to listen, evaluate, and create a care plan that supports total wellness—physically, mentally, and emotionally.
Integrative Medicine Options
From conventional surgical procedures to alternative therapies, we combine the best of both worlds to support healing and longevity.
Low-Stress Handling
Our team is trained in gentle, low-stress techniques, and our facility uses calming pheromones to ensure that your pet feels safe and relaxed during every visit.
A Focus on Prevention
We aim to prevent illness before it starts. Our comprehensive wellness care includes early detection, preventive screenings, and client education to keep your pet healthy at every age.
Cutting-Edge Technology
From digital thermal imaging to in-house ultrasound and laser therapy, we invest in advanced tools that allow for faster, more accurate diagnoses and effective treatments.

Why Choosing a Local Vet Matters for Your Pet’s Health
Having a trusted local vet is essential for your pet’s long-term health and your peace of mind. A nearby veterinary clinic means quicker access to care when it matters most—whether it's a sudden illness, routine check-up, or ongoing treatment plan. Local veterinarians also build lasting relationships with both you and your pet, allowing them to better understand your pet’s history, lifestyle, and unique needs. At Lifetime Pet Wellness in Columbus, OH, we’re proud to be part of the community, offering personalized, accessible care that feels like home.
A Welcoming Environment for Pets and People
We know that visiting the vet can be stressful, especially for anxious pets or those with past trauma. That’s why we’ve designed our clinic with comfort in mind. From the moment you step through the doors of our Columbus veterinary clinic, you’ll notice the difference—calm energy, friendly faces, and a sincere dedication to your pet’s well-being.
We also offer grooming services and end-of-life care, supporting every stage of your pet’s journey in one trusted location.
What our customers are saying
gentle & thorough
Love Dr Carlson. He is very gentle and thorough with my dogs. I am new to holistic medicine and am surprised at how well it is working for my "kids." lol We feed a raw diet and Dr Carlson is understanding about it. I've heard about him for years from my other raw-feeding friends, but didn't change because I had been with my original vet for 25 years. She retired and Dr Carlson was my first choice for a new vet. I made a great choice. Thanks Dr Carlson and staff!

slow down the aging process
I love bringing my dog to Lifetime Pet Wellness center. Everyone is so very friendly and my dog loves all of the attention he gets. It was like a wonderful spa experience for him this last visit. He got his nails trimmed, had chiropractic, and relaxed with PEMF. Thank you for great conversation and information while attending to him. Dr. Carlson has helped my dog to slow down the aging process a little with the chiropractic and the PEMF as well as with supplements that support his digestive system's needs.

expertise, care, & love
I've experienced vet care for all my animals, both cats and dog, from each of the Doctors at Lifetime Pet Wellness Center and cannot say enough good things about their expertise, care, and love that they give to each one of their patients and clients! They take their time to ensure all your questions are answered and help you make the best decisions for your pets and family. I also really appreciate the collaboration of traditional and integrative medicine and treatment options and their holistic approach to veterinary medicine. The staff is always very friendly and welcoming and I know my furry family members are in good hands!
