Services
Acupuncture
Our acupuncture treatments use Traditional Chinese Veterinary Medicine to address musculoskeletal, neurological, and internal medicine conditions. Sterile needles stimulate natural healing processes through endorphin release and improved circulation. This non-invasive option benefits pets with arthritis, disc disease, and chronic pain conditions.
Chiropractic
Board-certified veterinary chiropractors address neuromusculoskeletal issues through manual adjustments. This restores proper nerve communication and mobility while treating conditions like stiffness, pain, and organ dysfunction. Treatments focus on optimizing spinal health and overall body function.
Cold Laser Therapy
Non-invasive cold laser therapy reduces inflammation and accelerates healing for acute injuries and chronic conditions. Effective for post-surgical recovery, arthritis, and skin conditions, this drug-free treatment typically requires multiple short sessions for optimal results.
Dental Services
Comprehensive dental care includes professional cleanings, digital radiography, and periodontal treatment under anesthesia. Our protocol follows AAHA guidelines with pre-anesthetic bloodwork, ultrasonic scaling, and polishing to maintain oral health and prevent systemic disease.
Dermatology
Advanced dermatology services diagnose and treat allergies, infections, and autoimmune skin conditions. Using in-house microscopy, serum testing, and prescription diets, we create customized plans for managing chronic issues like atopic dermatitis and flea allergy reactions.

Incredible care and service everytime we visit or call. They listen, ensure I undertand what's going on each step of the way and they take incredible care of your furry family members. We've been moving through a health challenge for my pup and Dr Veo has been phenomenal in helping us through it. Very grateful to be a client of Uxbridge Animal Hospital.

I have brought my pets here for years and have always had a positive experience. The entire staff is caring, understanding and thorough. They will break everything down for you from costs to procedures and reasons why. They always answer my questions no matter how silly they may be and I cannot recommend them enough. Dr. Veo is amazing and I will be coming to her as long as she's there, and as long as I have pets! Thank you to the whole team for always putting your all into everything even through a pandemic! I appreciate you!

I am blown away by every visit. Their kindness and compassion outshine any other vet I have visited. I have recently had both a sick kitty and pup. They took the time to explain everything to me and helped guide me toward the best treatment options. I am so happy I found this place!
