Fourmile Veterinary Clinic was founded by Donald Ley in 1975, with the mission of serving Fremont County’s pets and animals.

Dr. Ley is one of very few veterinarians in the country that test for PAP in cattle. This test is a strong predictor of a cow’s susceptibility to heart failure at high altitudes. This is an illness common to ranching in the western United States, but PAP tests allow ranchers to make better decisions on their desired herd and herd sizes.
