Dr Jackson is a phenomenal surgeon surrounded by professional staff. He performed TPLO surgery on our dog Duke. We trust him and are confident in his abilities when our dogs need him most.

Marie Hahn-Knoff

Dr. Jackson and the team at Bridger Veterinary Specialists are absolutely amazing - their level of care and professionalism is top notch. We've had two different pets that have been treated at their practice and we have been so impressed with their skill and compassion. We'd recommend 10x over and are so appreciative that they are here in the Gallatin Valley!

Dana Mahoney

We had a great experience with Dr. Jackson and the Bridger Veterinary Specialists' team. Dr. Jackson expertly repaired our bulldog's sliding hiatal hernia and the team cared for him overnight at the clinic. When we picked Bailey up the next morning, he was already feeling better. He has recovered and healed incredibly well from a major surgery thanks to Dr. Jackson and his team.
