You’ve never seen a veterinary practice like this one before
Dr. Marc Nay and family have teamed up with Dr. Hanna Lamb to bring an exciting new option in veterinary medicine to Auburn/Opelika! Dr. Hanna Lamb, voted the best veterinarian in Auburn/Opelika in 2026 begins a new chapter, and Dr. Marc Nay continues his family’s legacy of innovative, best-in-class veterinary care, now forever home in Auburn. Our novel approach raises the bar in veterinary service in an elevated, fear-free, stress-free experience in a beautiful new building with no waiting room, reserved parking spaces leading to private exam suites, and an upscale, spa-like atmosphere less than 4 miles from the Moore’s Mill Publix.
You won’t find all of these things anywhere else in Auburn
We’ve invested in the resources and technology to offer the highest level of care available for pets —including a CT scanner, fluoroscopy, digital radiology, digital dental radiology, ultrasound, a surgical laser, a world-class surgery suite, a therapy laser, and acupuncture.
Among the most experienced and versatile veterinarians
Dr. Marc Nay has been loved by thousands of clients for his approach to veterinary care. His experience in emergency medicine and 35+ years of private practice have deepened his internal-medicine expertise and his wide repertoire of surgical skills, including orthopedics. He is joined by Auburn/Opelika’s beloved Dr. Hanna Lamb, whose certification in veterinary acupuncture brings a rare and valuable service to East Alabama. Our veterinarians believe in treating every patient as if they are their own pets and family members — and every client like a family friend.
Laurel Oaks Veterinary Center at Laurel Oaks Farm
Laurel Oaks Veterinary Center is a natural extension of the Nay’s home. The hospital is situated on the front of The Nay’s family farm on Lee Road 112, between Moore’s Mill Road and County Road 51 in Beauregard. The Nay family has been steeped in veterinary medicine for two generations and more than 7 decades. Dr. Marc Nay and wife Jennifer built, operated, and sold an innovative and highly successful veterinary practice in Richmond, Virginia, before choosing to make Auburn their forever home.
At Laurel Oaks Veterinary Center, each family member plays a unique role in the practice. Jennifer Nay is once again the Hospital Administrator, daughter Olivia is the Communications Director, and son Brock is a veterinary Assistant and 3rd generation Nay family veterinarian prodigy. Jennifer’s hobby is gardening and garden design on their farm, and you will notice several botanical references as you visit the hospital, along with the beautiful gardens surrounding it.
Auburn has loved us, and we’re loving it back
The people of Auburn/Opelika choose Dr. Lamb as their favorite veterinarian and have welcomed the Nays with open arms! Laurel Oaks Veterinary Center is their chance to send all that love back to this wonderful community by doing what they do best – providing the best possible care for pets and their owners.
