Dr. Andrea Verhougstraete and Dr. Kristina Baszler are extremely excited to welcome you to our veterinary hospital. After practicing veterinary medicine together for eight years, we decided to embark upon a new journey and open our own animal hospital in 2014. We chose Allendale because of its small town feel with a close proximity to the Grand Rapids area and everything it has to offer. Dr. Erin Ricco joined our team at Lake Michigan Animal Hospital in 2014.  Our highly skilled staff are all dedicated to providing compassionate and quality care for your furry family members.

It is our mission to provide high quality medical and surgical care to our patients while educating and assisting clients about pet care and ownership. We will do this by promoting regular preventative care so our patients can enjoy a lifetime of good health. At all times we will treat our clients and pets with respect, honesty, dignity and compassion.

  • "Thanks so much for checking up on Chloe!! And thank you again for reading a book to my girls while I was trying to figure out my payment. Your staff is greatly appreciated!"
    - Katie and Chloe
  • "I can not say enough great things about this vet clinic. They truly care about my pet and when they could easily take me for alot of money with her chronic condition, they do not. Instead they try to take a plan of action that can easily be maintained for the long haul. Both vets take the time to talk to me and listen, sometimes without an appointment. My pets are to me like children to many and I can easily say we have found a forever relationship with the vets and vet technicians at Lake Michigan Animal Hospital."
    - Heather, Zoe and Dante
