We are proud to be AAHA Accredited since 2014, and the American Association of Feline Practitioners has certified us as a Gold Cat Friendly Practice. We practice low stress handling techniques and extensive use of pre-visit pharmaceuticals (PVP) to facilitate feline-friendly veterinary visits. In 2024, we moved into a newly renovated building designed to further our mission of exceptional cat care. There are five full-time veterinarians and two part-time veterinarians in our practice with a wide range of practice experience and interests. We believe we can offer great insight to veterinary students in the practice of quality feline care. We have collaborated with past externs to make a schedule that caters to their interests, but overall, time spent with us consists of rotations through surgery/dentistry, primary care, and urgent care.
