University Place Veterinary Hospital

Welcome to University Place Veterinary Hospital, a premier destination for compassionate and comprehensive pet health care in the heart of Washington. In a region where pets are an integral part of life, finding a veterinary team that you can trust implicitly is paramount. At University Place Veterinary Hospital, our mission is to provide state-of-the-art medical services with an unwavering commitment to empathy, understanding, and respect for both the pet and the owner. We believe that every animal deserves to be treated with dignity, and every owner deserves to be heard and supported. Our dedicated team is here to partner with you through every stage of your pet's life, from their first puppy or kitten exam to end-of-life care, ensuring they live a long, healthy, and happy life.

We understand that a pet is more than just an animal; they are a cherished member of the family. This philosophy guides every decision we make and every interaction we have. We strive to create a veterinary experience that is free from pressure and filled with genuine care. One client's powerful review perfectly captures this, stating, "you get amazing, high quality service, but without pressure or guilt." They go on to express their confidence that our recommendations are "all based on what is best for the patient and not her balance sheet." This trust, earned through honest and compassionate service, is the cornerstone of our practice.

We are a team that truly cares, and our actions speak louder than words. A heartfelt review recounts the compassionate end-of-life care provided to a beloved senior dog, highlighting our team's willingness to work them in without an appointment because "no dog should have to wait in pain." The thoughtful gesture of a hand-signed condolence card, including a paw print and flower seeds, is a testament to the depth of our compassion and the personal connection we build with our clients. We are not just a hospital; we are a family.
