TODAY’S REALITY

Our existing hospital was designed when educational methods were less collaborative and specialization in veterinary medicine was in its infancy. We offered two services in 1983. Since then, we’ve grown to 19, and space and layout limitations challenge our capacity to educate and to provide care. The number of patients we can see at any given time is limited, as well. To continue to offer cutting-edge care, we must improve our treatment areas to better accommodate patients’ individual needs.

TOMORROW’S VISION

With the patient and client experience at the forefront of our minds, our new hospital will focus on compassionate and integrated care to fit each client’s needs. From arrival at a dedicated ER entrance or in a fear-free waiting area, through consultation, examination and procedures undertaken with the right technologies deployed in the right spaces, we envision a workflow and workplace that benefits veterinarians, students and, most importantly, our patients.

Through their work, our hospital staff has distinguished themselves as one of only a few teaching hospitals in the United States to earn the gold level Cat Friendly Practice by the American Assocation of Feline Practitioners.
