A little about us We’re a busy AAHA accredited small animal hospital in Topsham, Maine, providing high-quality care for cats, dogs, and a variety of exotic pets.

Our doctors and support staff work collaboratively, our team includes plenty of long-tenured people, and we make room for learning, sharing knowledge, and doing things right. We use Fear Free techniques to help patients feel more comfortable, and we take the quality of our medicine just as seriously as the way we treat each other.
