About Us
At Ithaca Animal Hospital, we are dedicated to providing the highest quality medical care and personalized service to your beloved pets. For over 50 years, we have been serving Gratiot County and surrounding areas, earning a reputation for our compassionate and skilled veterinary staff. Our mission is to create a friendly and caring environment where trust between our staff and clients is paramount.
Our History
Ithaca Animal Hospital has been under the loving care and watchful eye of Dr. John Cresswell for the last 33 years. Recently, however, Dr. Cresswell has decided to retire to enjoy more time with his family. He has entrusted the historic location and vibrant practice to the new owner, Dr. Scott Goetgeluck. Dr. Goetgeluck, along with Dr. Wenzel and Dr. Sanchez, is committed to continuing the great history and exceptional service that this hospital has provided to the community.
Our Services
We offer a wide variety of veterinary services in small animal medicine and surgery. Our full-service animal hospital provides comprehensive care for your pets, including:
- Pet Wellness: Annual veterinary exams to ensure your pets' well-being and prolong their lives.
- Pet Dentistry: Preventing periodontal disease, which can damage your pet's heart, liver, and other internal organs if it spreads into the bloodstream.
- Pet Surgery: Advanced procedures such as spay and neuter, gastropexy, biopsies, cystotomies, gastrotomy/enterotomy, and mass removal. We use state-of-the-art technology to make these procedures as simple and easy on you and your pet as possible.
- Sick Pet Examination and Treatment: Thorough examinations to detect any potential problems before they become major health concerns. Our doctors will perform a physical examination from head to tail, ensuring that your pet's ears, eyes, mouth, teeth, skin, limbs, and joints are not abnormal. We also examine your pet’s heart and lungs, as well as its abdomen and lymph nodes.
Our Commitment
At Ithaca Animal Hospital, we strive to treat every pet as we would those in our own families. We are committed to providing personalized service to fit your individual needs and exceeding your expectations every time you come in. Our compassionate and skillful veterinary staff are here to help when you need us most. We look forward to continuing our tradition of exceptional care and service to the community.
