Marshall Breite, DVM Dr. Breite graduated from the Cornell University College of Veterinary Medicine in 1979. After working at several multi-person practices, he opened the Lagrange Veterinary Hospital in 1989. August 2021 will proudly mark 32 years at the same location.

Dr. Breite's motto is “Thoroughness and Thoughtfulness,” and he applies it equally to his patients and their owners. With nearly four decades of invaluable experience in veterinary medicine, Dr. Breite prides himself on being an excellent generalist veterinarian; very similar to a Family Practitioner in Human Medicine. Accordingly, his fundamental goal is to consistently provide your beloved pet with the best care possible and to always let you rest assured that you have left them in the best hands possible.

When not practicing veterinary medicine, Dr. Breite is a passionate obstacle course racer and has qualified for the Obstacle Course Racing World Championships 7 years in a row. He also enjoys appearing onstage in local community theater productions whenever possible.

She is so grateful to have the opportunity to combine a love for animals with a calling for customer service in an environment that genuinely promotes pet health and client satisfaction. It is a true pleasure to come to work every day!

In her free time she enjoys participating in the local community theater scene—you can find her onstage or backstage at least once a year—and hiking in the Shawangunks, Hudson Highlands and Catskill Mountains, with the occasional Adirondack peak thrown in for good measure.

COVID-19 Update

Our current COVID-19 protocol permits one vaccinated, masked person to accompany the pet into the hospital. When you get here, please call from the parking lot to let us know you are here. We will follow up with a few questions and further instructions on whether or how you may enter with your pet. For clients who arrive with children or dependent adults, our lobby is not an appropriate place for them to wait during your pet’s visit.

When you enter our hospital, please make sure you are wearing a well-fitting mask that covers your mouth and your nose. You will be required to wear your mask over your mouth and nose for the entirety of your time in the hospital.

For unvaccinated clients, clients who arrive with children or dependent adults, or clients who prefer not to wear a mask, our curbside protocol remains in effect: a member of our staff will meet you outside to bring your pet in while you wait outside. Once he is done with his exam, Dr. Breite will call you on your cell phone to discuss exam findings, recommendations, results and next steps as well as answer any questions you may have, and your pet will be returned to you. All dogs must be leashed and all cats must be in a carrier.

For prescription diet and medication needs, we ask that clients call ahead to make your request so that we can get your product ready and take payment over the phone. Then, when you arrive to collect it, call from the parking lot to let us know you are here. We will leave your food or medication for you outside the exit door for you to pick up. You may also order your pet’s medication and food for home delivery through our online pharmacy.

If you have any questions regarding your pet’s health please call us at 845-473-9121.
