At Dublin Animal Hospital, we offer preventive care services as well surgical procedures (C-section, cherry eye surgery, and more), and veterinarians are supported by one technician or assistant per doctor. Digital x-ray, ultrasound, and EKG equipment are available for use as needed, and boarding is also offered for medical or vacation purposes!
