Directions to the Small Animal Clinic

The Veterinary Teaching Hospital's Small Animal Clinic is on the LSU campus in Baton Rouge, Louisiana at the corner of River Road and Skip Bertman Drive (formerly South Stadium Drive). We are right next to the levee of the Mississippi River, just to the west of the LSU baseball and football stadiums. If you have questions or problems finding us, please do not hesitate to call us at 225-578-9600.

The central part of the LSU campus is closed to public vehicular traffic from 7:00 a.m. until 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday. This is part of the new Easy Streets campaign, which is designed to reduce the on-campus traffic congestion and facilitate pedestrian access to campus buildings.

The five sets of directions below will get you from Interstate 10, I-12, or LA 30 directly to the LSU SVM, avoiding the streets closed to outside traffic.

Stadium Road (to the left) and Skip Bertman Drive (on the right). At this point Tiger Stadium is on the left and the old Alex Box Baseball Stadium is on the right. Turn right onto Skip Bertman Drive and drive about half a mile toward the river to the last driveway on the right. There will be a sign with an arrow saying Small Animal Clinic.
