vet with dog and owner

Veterinarians solemnly swear to use their scientific knowledge and skills "for the benefit of society through the protection of animal health and welfare, the prevention and relief of animal suffering, the conservation of animal resources, the promotion of public health, and the advancement of medical knowledge."

Today's veterinarians are in the unique position of being the only doctors educated to protect the health of both animals and people. They are not only educated to meet the health needs of every species of animal but they play an important role in environmental protection, food safety, and public health.

In taking The Veterinarian's Oath, a doctor solemnly swears to use his or her scientific knowledge and skills "for the benefit of society, through the protection of animal health, the relief of animal suffering, the conservation of animal resources, and the advancement of medical knowledge."

Today nearly 70,000 veterinarians are professionally active in the United States. They provide a wide variety of services in private clinical practice, teaching, research, government service, public health, military service, private industry, and other areas.

This section contains articles to help you better understand how veterinary medicine can help you and your pet enjoy the longest and fullest life together.

Testimonials

Read What Our Clients Say

  • "We have been going to this veterinary clinic for 20 yrs, and the original Dr. Kim was amazing and actually prayed with all pets.
    I loved him and he saved 2 of our dogs lives.
    The now Dr. Kim is absolutely a great Vet and person, he treats your animals like we do "family" he is so compassionate and he doesn't try a milk you for money, if you can't afford certain things he helps to work around it.
    This establishment is THEE ONLY PLACE all of our fur babies have been, as has my family.
    I have recommended this vet to many and they are still taking their animals to him.
    The staff is amazing and all of the different techs over the 20 years have been very helpful and their knowledge is a plus
    I am actually taking my baby in today for his flea medication and I am taking my fur sister in for my mom passed and I promised her I would take good care of her
    Many Blessings to you all...

  • "I have all my 3 dogs seen by Dr. Kim now. We used to have other vets for more than 20 years, and I have to say we are very lucky to find Dr. Kim. He's so patient and fully address our concerns, and let us know what our options are. Truly professional! I can see how much he cares, and I feel very confident that my dogs are under his care. Not to mention his staff are also very friendly and professional as well. I would definitely recommend this hospital for your loving pets."
