Description
River Oak Veterinary Clinic | Five Forks – Simpsonville, SC
Great Medicine. Great People. A Practice You'll Be Proud to Call Home.
At River Oak Veterinary Clinic, we believe exceptional veterinary medicine starts with great people, strong relationships, and a team that genuinely enjoys working together.
Located in the thriving Five Forks community of Simpsonville, South Carolina, River Oak is a locally owned, veterinarian-led companion animal hospital founded by Dr. Brandon Adley in 2023. We've grown into a busy, three-doctor practice with a reputation for compassionate care, quality medicine, and meaningful relationships with the families we serve.
As we continue to grow, we're excited to welcome a fourth veterinarian to our River Oak family.
Experienced Doctors. Collaborative Medicine. A Team That Supports You.
One of River Oak's greatest strengths is our clinical team.
Our veterinarians bring a wealth of knowledge, diverse clinical strengths, and a shared commitment to practicing excellent medicine. Dr. Adley and Dr. Aaron Pate each bring decades of experience, along with a calm, thoughtful approach to patient care. Dr. Claire Wigington rounds out our team with strong clinical skills and a collaborative spirit.
Our doctors enjoy discussing cases, sharing knowledge, and supporting one another. Mentorship happens naturally here, and we believe even the most experienced veterinarians benefit from having trusted colleagues to collaborate with.
Whether you're an experienced DVM looking for a practice where you can continue to grow or a newer graduate eager to learn alongside seasoned veterinarians, you'll find a team that wants you to succeed.
And that philosophy extends beyond our doctors. We're fortunate to have a strong clinical support team made up of licensed veterinary technicians (LVTs) and experienced veterinary assistants who bring valuable knowledge, skill, and dedication to patient care. We believe in investing in our people, supporting their continued growth, and working together to provide the best possible experience for our patients and clients.

A Great Place to Practice. A Great Place to Live.
Located just outside Greenville, South Carolina, the Five Forks community offers an exceptional quality of life, with easy access to the restaurants, entertainment, and amenities of Greenville, along with the outdoor recreation and natural beauty of the Upstate.
It's a wonderful place to build a career, put down roots, and enjoy life outside the clinic.
Come Grow With Us!
River Oak is growing, but our priorities remain the same: excellent medicine, compassionate care, strong relationships, and a workplace where people feel supported and valued.
We're looking for more than another doctor on the schedule. We're looking for someone who wants to be part of what we're building.
If that sounds like the kind of practice you've been looking for, we'd love to meet you.
