If you are deciding whether to register a pet as a new patient, the phone number and the online booking link are the two entry points the site highlights.
Services Listed
The site organizes its care into five service areas:
- Wellness & Prevention — routine health support
- Testing & Diagnostics
- Advanced Care
- Surgical Procedures
- Pet Boarding
Patient resources are grouped separately and include a first-visit page, patient forms, insurance and payments information, FAQs, and pet owner resources.
Hours of Operation
The hospital emphasizes that it is open every day:
| Day | Hours |
|---|---|
| Monday–Friday | 7:00 AM – 7:00 PM |
| Saturday | 8:00 AM – 2:00 PM |
| Sunday | 10:00 AM – 4:00 PM |
These hours matter if your reason for visiting is time-sensitive; the site's framing is that the hospital is available when your pet needs it, including weekends.
What AAHA Accreditation Means Here
According to the site, AAHA accreditation means the hospital regularly undergoes evaluations to meet or exceed AAHA's standards of care. Those standards cover surgery, exam facilities, patient care, cleanliness, client service, emergency services, diagnostic imaging, and anesthesiology. The site states that only 15% of animal hospitals in the United States and Canada hold this accreditation.
For a pet owner comparing clinics, this is a checkable quality signal: you can verify accreditation status through AAHA rather than relying on the clinic's own description.
What the Site Does Not Specify
The site does not publish pricing, payment plan details, or a list of which emergencies it can handle versus refer elsewhere. Its "Emergency Care" mention appears in the page title rather than in a detailed service description. If cost or a specific emergency capability is your deciding factor, call (765) 284-3000 before visiting rather than assuming.
