About Us

At Southern Trails Vet, we believe every pet deserves exceptional veterinary care, and every family deserves a veterinary team they can trust.

Our purpose is simple: to strengthen the bond between pets and the people who love them through compassionate care, thoughtful communication, and high quality medicine. We know your pet is family, and we believe you should feel informed, supported, and valued throughout every stage of their life.

Under the leadership of Dr. Maria Flippo, Southern Trails Vet is building on a strong foundation of personalized veterinary care while continuing to serve the pets and families of Evans and the surrounding CSRA. Dr. Flippo became the owner of Southern Trails because she is passionate about making exceptional veterinary medicine both accessible and practical for families in our community. She has dedicated her career to creating an experience that is welcoming, educational, and centered on the unique needs of every pet and every family.

We believe great veterinary medicine is about more than diagnosing and treating illness. It’s about listening, educating, collaborating, and creating a partnership built on trust. Our team is committed to reducing fear and anxiety during veterinary visits, helping pets feel safe while giving owners the confidence that comes from understanding their pet’s health and treatment options.

Every recommendation we make is guided by one simple philosophy: if this were our own pet, what would we do? We believe pets deserve thorough, high quality care, and if a case requires additional expertise, we won’t stop until we’ve found the answers. Whether that means advanced diagnostics, collaboration with veterinary specialists, or taking extra time to answer your questions, we’re committed to providing the highest standard of care possible.
At Southern Trails Vet, we don’t just care for pets—we care for the people who love them. We believe every family deserves honest guidance, compassionate support, and a veterinary team that walks beside them through every stage of their pet’s life.

When you walk through our doors, our hope is that you feel the care we’ve put into every detail of your experience. We want you to know that you’re valued, your concerns are heard, and your pet is genuinely loved by the people caring for them.

We’re honored to be your partner in your pet’s health and look forward to building lasting relationships with the families and pets of Evans for years to come.
