The Monestoy veterinary clinic, its history and its premises

A half-century veterinary activity in Épinac

The first veterinarians in Epinac, whose activity we know of, settled here in the early 1960s.

Our clinic was created at 14 le Grand Chemin in the early 1980s. It opened its doors on July 1, 1984 exactly, founded by Doctors Mazan, Desanlis, Courouble and Laurent. At the time of its creation, the clinic had some modern features already, with a consultation room, a room for surgery, a reception, a pharmacy, a room for X-rays, a kennel, an office and a stand for cattle. The veterinarians hire their first assistant to ensure longer opening hours and relieve their wives who were often called upon to work in reception.

Premises adapted to the treatment of your pets (and to breeding)

Our premises as you know them today are the result of two extensions. In 1998, we added a second consultation room allowing for better treatment of dogs. In 2012, we modernized the entire building. A spacious reception with two distinct spaces (for dogs and for cattle) as well as two laboratories see the light of day. Also, we recently added the right dose of fun to our clinic with our mascot, the cow in psychedelic colors, which serves as a welcome committee and as an original landmark that helps you to find our clinic.

A dynamic team at your service

The first member of the current team to join the clinic is Dr. Arnaud Bohy in 1985, replacing Dr. Mazan. He is joined by five other partners who make up our current team. Dr. Edouard Grosbois, our adventurous veterinarian, joins the clinic in 2001, after working abroad, and becomes a partner two years later. Dr. Jocelyn Amiot is the local member of the team. He joins the clinic at the end of his studies and decides to pursue his career at Epinac, becoming a partner in 2006. Dr. Nancy Savoye adds ´a woman´s touch´ to our clinic in 2007 and also starts working with homeopathy. She becomes a partner in 2010. Dr. Delost and Dr. Girard complete our team of partners in 2014 and 2015. Dr. Delost has been developing osteopathy in our clinic since 2014.

There are also an associate veterinarian, a salaried veterinarian and a team of dynamic assistants who will be happy to provide the best care for your animals.

The clinic’s approach is a holistic approach to animal health and welfare. We place an emphasis on teamwork and cohesion among our members.
