TEMPORARY HOSPITAL HOUR CHANGE: At Aardvark, we are dedicated to ongoing education, believing it is essential for maintaining and enhancing the exceptional veterinary care we provide for your pets. So that Dr. Thomas and our team members may attend a veterinary conference for continuing education, we will be closed June 18th through June 29th and will resume regular hours on July 1st.

During this closure:

A limited team will be available on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays from 9:00 AM to 11:00 AM for prescription pickups only. They can be reached via Pet Desk, text, or email during these hours for requests and non-urgent correspondence. Please send text messages to our main telephone number: 610-269-2226. Hospital services will not be performed during these hours.

Your pet's vaccination records and the ability to schedule appointments and request prescription refills will still be available 24/7 through our Pet Desk app.

You can also utilize our online pharmacy, which is available 24/7 for your prescription needs. It offers medications delivered to your door at prices competitive with major online pharmacies, often with free shipping. Visit our online pharmacy at: Aardvark Online Pharmacy.

As an entirely independent, family-owned veterinary hospital, our goal is to provide exceptional care within our community, free from the constraints of corporate veterinary medicine. While it's customary for veterinarians to attend continuing education events, they typically rely on colleagues within their practice or corporation for coverage. However, as Dr. Thomas is our only veterinarian and we operate as a small business, such support isn't feasible during continuing education. We deeply value your support of our local business, understanding that this independence comes at a cost.

Thank you, as always, for trusting us with the care of your pets.
