Customized Veterinary Health Care Meets Every Pet’s Needs

Whether you adopt a new kitten or rescue a senior dog from a shelter, you want your companion to be healthy and happy. Red Bank Veterinary Hospital - Hillsborough provides a complete program of medical care for pets including wellness and preventive care, along with direct access to our emergency service and our team of specialists if your pet should need advanced care.

Experienced Veterinarians for Comprehensive Pet Care

From new kitten and puppy exams to geriatric care, our general practice veterinarians are trained to handle all routine treatments and surgeries. In addition, these veterinarians are experienced in complex medical and diagnostic procedures, progressive and alternative options, and veterinary emergencies.

A general practitioner is your pet’s primary care veterinarian – who takes the time to customize a health care plan that matches your pet’s individual needs. They guide and support you in all medical decisions and serve as a liaison, should your pet need to be referred for specialty care from a board-certified veterinarian.

Each morning, our general practitioners and specialists gather together for hospital grand rounds. This is a time when the medical backgrounds of hospitalized pets are shared, allowing each patient to benefit from the wide range of experience and knowledge of all our doctors and staff.

Travel Health Certificates

Traveling with your pet internationally, and in some cases across state borders, requests special documentation. This documentation often requests the approval of a USDA certified veterinarian. Veterinarians with USDA certification have received specialized training in the processes associated with animal import and export. They will be able to advise you and provide you with the required paperwork to allow you and your pet to safely visit your intended destination.

Many countries require very specific vaccinations and deadlines prior to travel. Each country and state provide their own specific requirements and regulations. These regulations have been created to prevent the spread of foreign diseases, maintain global health security, and to keep track of animals during travel.

It is important to explore the USDA APHIS Pet Travel website well in advance of your travel date. This link outlines all of the specific requirements, deadlines, and paperwork necessary to insure entry into each travel destination. Our team can assist with travel health certificates for your pet. You may inquire about this service when you schedule your next General Practice visit at Red Bank Veterinary Hospital - Hillsborough.
