General Info

Carroll Veterinary Clinic was founded in 1984 by Dr. H. G. Mark Strauss, a veterinarian who fell in love with the local community, its pets, and pet owners. Two years later, Dr. Strauss was joined by Dr. Jim Adams, a DVM who shared his passion for the area and for caring for animals. Together, the two veterinarians started Foothills Pet Healthcare Clinic in 1999 to expand their practice and bring their solutions-oriented care to pets and pet owners in the Mount Airy region. Since then, the practices have grown to include two additional DVMs, Dr. Jonathan Adcock and Dr. Teresa McKenzie.Over the years, the two practices have attracted and maintained many loyal clients from a large geographic area.
