Why does choosing an Accredited Animal Hospital for your pet’s care matter? 🏥 🩺
The American Animal Hospital Association (AAHA) sets the standard of care in veterinary medicine, but becoming an accredited hospital is voluntary, not required. Only 12-15% of veterinary practices in the US and Canada choose to undergo the rigorous evaluation based on over 900 standards to demonstrate their commitment to providing the highest level of care and service.
That's not all!👇
We continue to be held to a higher standard and undergo comprehensive evaluations every 3 years to maintain our status and show that we continue to meet and exceed the standards of care and adapt to the latest advancements in veterinary medicine to remain at the forefront of our profession.
So what does that mean for you and your pets? 😻 🐶
By choosing an AAHA-accredited veterinary practice, you can be confident that your pet is getting the very best medical care from a dedicated team that is held to the highest standard and provides the highest level of care for their patients.
Because your pet deserves nothing less. 💕

Chillin like a villain
Oooohhh Duke 😍… this guy is chillin like a villain after his neuter surgery. Why are our patients so comfortable just after surgery:
1️⃣we give layers of pain support. We are on top of pain management before the procedure starts giving a variety of pain control before, during , and after the surgery. 2️⃣we address their emotional needs/anxiety level and medicate as needed for each patient3️⃣we give them a comfortable environment. Our patients stay warm on the best/safest warming technology (the black blanket you see in the video) and soft blankets.
Baby teeth in dogs
Many dogs retained their deciduous teeth, especially their upper canines. Most of the time the teeth fail to fall out on their own and it is best to consider removing them with a skilled veterinarian at the time of the spay or neuter.. or earlier in some cases.
Stay warm
It’s the coldest weekend of the year for our VMC patients… show us your pets staying warm this weekend.. tag us and we will share in the stories @vmcfortmill
