Why Points East Veterinary Specialty Hospital

As we introduce an ophthalmology service, you would be involved in all the equipment purchases and service scheduling decision making. Rooms in our new building have been set aside to add new equipment for you to have plenty of space to work. This is a great opportunity to shape your practice.

With three sister specialty/emergency practices, each within an hour of the hospital, Points East VSH enjoys the collaboration and camaraderie that comes with being a member of the Vets Pets family. These hospitals remained open, and staffed, while others around have closed. All have experienced steady, healthy growth over the past several years. While sharing ideas, inventory, staff, and protocols, this network of hospitals problem-solve together.
