At Shark River Veterinary Hospital, we believe that an important aspect of our commitment to the health of your pet is our relationship with you, the pet owner. We work closely with you to understand your pet's unique health needs, develop a customized wellness plan, and ensure you have the knowledge required to be a responsible, loving caregiver. We always discuss your pet's medical diagnosis with you and the various treatment options before continuing with our healthcare plan.
We are proud to offer discounted services to senior citizens and local area rescue groups. Pre-approval is required to qualify for the rescue group discounts, and we encourage you to call us for more information.
