What makes Abbey Animal Hospital unique

We mean it when we say work-life balance. Our 4-day work week is supported by a culture that honors requests during busy seasons. We value kindness, support each other in tougher times, and avoid corporate-style team building in favor of genuine care for our work family.

We strive to practice medicine the way it should be practiced: with high-level care, respect for clients and staff time, and the tools necessary to deliver quality treatment.

Our facility includes five exam rooms, dedicated surgical and dental suites, and advanced diagnostics. We are a trusted referral center with capabilities including abdominal and cardiac ultrasound, endoscopy, orthopedic and soft tissue surgeries, surgical lasers, and in-house diagnostics.

Growth and Learning

Mentorship and professional development are priorities. We have a track record of supporting veterinarians and veterinary students in pursuing special interests and continuing education.
