The Princeton Veterinary Hospital Approach

At Princeton Veterinary Hospital, we strive to treat each one of our clients like family. You care so much about your four-legged family member’s health and well-being. Our annual examinations and vaccine and prevention recommendations are built around protecting that. We honor your relationship with your pets by working with you to design a plan to keep your pets happy and healthy. By doing so, we hope to gain your trust and become a valued part of your pet’s health care team for life.

What to Expect

As a walk-in clinic, it can be difficult to know what to expect on any particular day! While we are open from 7:00am-6:00pm on weekdays and from 7:00am-noon on Saturdays, we ask that you arrive and sign in to see the veterinarian between 8:00am-10:30am, or between 1:00pm-5:00pm. This helps us make sure that we can give each patient and client the time, attention, and care they need, while still respecting everyone’s time.

Of course, if you do not need to see a veterinarian – picking up medicines, nail trims, dropping a pet off, or a procedure that needs a technician – you are welcome to come in any time during our regular hours. We do schedule appointments for surgeries, dental cleanings, boarding, and farm calls.

We are in the middle of construction right now! We are expanding our facility so we can better serve you and your furry family members. However, we did need to get a little smaller before we are able to get bigger… We are in a bit of a space crunch right now. Temporarily, our reception staff will greet you right inside the front door. They’ll find out why you brought your pet today, get you checked in, and may ask you to fill out paperwork while you wait. Our waiting room is open, but about half the size of normal for now. You are welcome to wait inside if there is space, or you can wait outside for your turn to see the veterinarian.

When our staff is ready to see your pet, we’ll call you in from the waiting room, or will call your cell phone to ask you to come into the waiting room. One of our Registered Veterinary Technicians or Veterinary Assistants will bring you and your pet into an exam room where they will ask some questions about your pet’s history and begin a physical examination. Once they have the preliminary information, they’ll step out of the room to get one of our veterinarians.

When you see the veterinarian, they will have more questions for you and do a physical examination on your pet. We know how much you care about your four-legged family member’s health and well-being. Our annual examinations, vaccines, and prevention recommendations are built around protecting your relationship with your pets. We honor that relationship by working with you to design plans for disease prevention, diagnostics, and treatments when needed that will help your pet and work with your budget. Our goal is to gain your trust and become a valued part of your pet’s health care team for life. 

When everything is finished, the veterinarian will discuss any test results and treatment plans with you. Our Veterinary Technicians or Assistants will check you out right in the exam room, give you any medicines your pet needs, and you’ll be on your way!
