American Animal Hospital Association



We are proud to be associated with the "best of the best" who choose AAHA accreditation. Approximately one of every six veterinary hospitals achieves this distinction.

As an AAHA accredited practice, we adhere to the highest standards of excellence in veterinary medicine and we voluntarily agree to be inspected on over 900 standards covering everything from anesthesia to zoonosis. 

To maintain our AAHA accreditation, our hospital maintains AAHA's high standards for quality veterinary care. All AAHA hospitals are regularly inspected and evaluated by trained AAHA professionals to ensure that we maintain the standards and provide the best veterinary care we can.

The AAHA standards of excellence cover the following areas and services in our hospital:

  • Anesthesia
  • Client Service
  • Contagious Disease
  • Continuing Education
  • Dentistry
  • Diagnostic Imaging
  • Emergency and Urgent Care
  • Examination Facilities

Today, AAHA is respected internationally for its dedication to professional development, hospital standards, outstanding publications, and the excellence of its education programs. This recognition and the strength of the organization is a tribute to the vision of its founders and the leadership and dedication of the many veterinarians who have sacrificed time and energy to serve the Association through the years. Their contributions are evident today in a strong, viable, and dynamic association that continues to be on the "cutting edge" of the veterinary profession.
