Scott's Addition Animal Hospital — A Business Banking Member

There is no doubt that the team at Scott’s Addition Animal Hospital is dedicated to the care of their furry clientele. Drs. Jason and Jane Hiser, the husband-and-wife duo that own the practice, used their experience in veterinary medicine to thoughtfully design a space that would suit owners and animals alike.  

Jason and Jane started the practice after years of working at different clinics in the area. The pair met in veterinary school at Virginia Tech and have since settled in the Richmond area with their two sons and rescue golden retriever, Linus. 

Jason was introduced to Curt Straub, senior vice president and commercial banker at TowneBank, as he looked for the right space to open his very own clinic. “Curt has been one of the biggest gifts we’ve ever been given,” says Jason. “If we’ve done anything right, it was working with Curt and the team at TowneBank.” 

Together, Curt and Drs. Hiser found the perfect space on Broad Street in Richmond’s historic Scott’s Addition. With the help of TowneBank, they were able to secure a loan through the Small Business Administration for owner-occupied real estate.  

Scott’s Addition Animal Hospital opened its doors in March 2021 and offers full-service preventative care, as well as in-house surgery, laboratory services and diagnostics, and a pharmacy. The space is set up with advanced equipment, including surgical laser technology that yields a quicker recovery time, and the Bair Hugger blanket that stabilizes a dog’s temperature and provides comfort during and after surgery.  

TowneBank helps the clinic run smoothly with merchant services and business online banking service. Future plans for Scott’s Addition Animal Hospital include adding canine physical therapy and rehabilitation services, as well as additional state-of-the-art equipment. As the clinic grows, Jason and Jane know TowneBank will be there to help. “My relationship with TowneBank is about so much more than great loan rate,” says Jason. “I can shoot Curt a message about anything, and he will be there to help.”
