The American Animal Hospital Association (AAHA)

We set our standards high.

We understand that your pet holds a valued place in your life and in your heart. As a companion, friend, and confidante, your pet is an important part of the family. And, like any family member, your cats, dogs, rabbits, ferrets, and other exotic pets deserve the finest possible health care.

Your pet is important to you and to us.

The American Animal Hospital Association (AAHA) establishes exacting standards of veterinary practice for its members. AAHA fosters professionalism and excellence in all phases of hospital operations. To become an AAHA-accredited hospital, we must comply with AAHA’s unique list of standards. April 1, 2005,  we received the highest level of  accreditation and compliance. We have been a member since 1981.

Accurate record keeping for every patient ensures prompt and accurate diagnosis. It is essential in our daily work and guides the future care of your pet.

Complete diagnostic capabilities begin with the exam room, where we evaluate your pet's health in a proper clinical environment. Access to clinical pathology services-such as blood chemistry and urine analysis, X-ray films, and heart monitoring-speeds up diagnosis, allowing proper treatment to start as soon as possible.

Proper anesthetic procedures create the safest and most comfortable conditions for your pet during surgery.

Surgical procedures performed in a separate, enclosed room help us protect your pet from the risk of post-surgical infection. Our well-trained veterinarians and surgical staff use proper procedures to ensure the cleanliness of our surgical suite and the safety of your pet.

Concern for preventive medicine is a hallmark of the best pet care. For this reason, our entire staff regularly attends veterinary continuing education classes to help us stay up-to-date with the latest medical techniques. We also encourage you to schedule annual health exams for your pet. Each year we assess your pet's general wellbeing, and it gives us the chance to detect the early stages of potential health problems.

Complete pharmaceutical facilities give us the ability to provide medications quickly when your pet needs them.

Emergency service, on-site or through a referral emergency center, ensures that immediate care is available whenever your pet needs it.

Dental care plays an important role in your pet's health, just as it does for you. In our well-equipped animal hospital, trained staff performs routine dental cleanings and other oral surgeries for our patients.

Nursing care is a vital requirement for excellent pet care. Our professional and highly trained staff follows strict guidelines for the proper care of your pet, from diagnosis to recuperation.

Properly maintained environment means more than just a clean surgical area. We work hard to maintain safe, sanitary conditions throughout the hospital, including the lab, kennels, and reception area.
