VCA Village Animal Hospital

About Our Hospital

We are considered one of the most desirable hospitals to work with for the new graduating doctor. Our individually talented doctors have a team-oriented approach to medicine. Our doctors are a huge asset in mentoring or assisting the new graduate to comfortably and confidently make the transition into "the real world" of the exam room, as well as to perform surgery. Because of the caliber and high skill set of the support staff, doctors are able to focus on diagnosing, prescribing, and performing surgery. A new graduate can be assured that they will have every opportunity to grow personally and professionally in an environment that is centered on quality, commitment, and service. Our doctors' pursuit of excellence is only enhanced by their humility, compassion, and integrity. We have a solid working relationship with our local ER and referral hospitals, allowing the doctors to enjoy their families and personal hobbies. We are honored and privileged to add to the quality of life for our patients and their families. Village Animal Hospital serves with distinction those that have no voice.

About Palm Bay, FL

Currently we have six exam rooms, isolation ward, and a separate surgical suite with state-of-the-art monitoring equipment and a client comfort room. We are slated for further expansion to be completed by the end of 2006, which will add additional exam rooms, a second triage area, and a consultation room.

Palm Bay has the charm of a small town with all the amenities of larger cities. The beaches are 7 miles away, Kennedy Space Center is 45 miles away, and Orlando is 1 hour away with all its "Magic." This is a wonderful area to raise a family. It is a growing community, with a good school system, many medical facilities to choose from, and the security of knowing the crime rate is low. There are beaches, wildlife preserves, cultural events, sports facilities, and shopping. One may enjoy fishing, boating, sailing, scuba diving, horses, gardening, or the quiet solitude of the wooded areas and retreats. There is a community college, which has an accredited vet tech program, and F.I.T. is located 4 miles away.
