Selkirk Veterinary Hospital is a member of the American Animal Hospital Association(AAHA). Our 3 doctor practice provides veterinary care for small animals, birds and exotic pets. We are committed to the provision of completely professional care for your pets. They are, after all, members of your family - so we treat them like members of ours.
Patient Care
At the Selkirk Veterinary Hospital we take your trust very seriously. We know that taking that extra bit of time to stop and give our patients some “TLC” makes a world of difference to them, because hospitals can be overwhelming for humans, let alone pets.
AAHA Accreditation: The American Animal Hospital Association establishes exacting standards for veterinary practices. As an AAHA-accredited hospital member,we voluntarily meet these standards for hospital services and facilities. Why? When we follow AAHA's strict guidelines, it ensures a high standard of care for your pet.
AAHA membership fosters professionalism and maximises standards in all phases of hospital operations. To become an AAHA accredited hospital, our pet health care must comply with AAHA's strict standards.
