Beginning December 18, 2025, our main hospital lobby entrance will be temporarily closed due to facility renovations. For hospital appointments, please park in a numbered space along the side of the building and call us at 904-223-4360 upon arrival; a team member will escort you and your pet directly to an exam room. For medication pick-ups, please use the sliding double doors located in the Pet Resort, where our reception team will assist you. Grooming and boarding appointments are not affected and should continue to use the Grooming entrance on the north end of the Pet Resort. We appreciate your patience as we complete these improvements and look forward to serving you in an enhanced space.
