AAHA Accredited

We Are AAHA Accredited!

As a practice and as your pet’s primary medical provider, we never want to settle for service that is less than stellar. Being your chosen veterinarian is a privilege, but maintaining your trust and keeping your pet healthy requires more than compassion and reliability. Therefore, Dundee Animal Hospital has gone a step further than roughly 85% of all other animal hospitals in North America by becoming an AAHA-accredited practice. Through our accreditation, we hope to continue exceeding our clients’ expectations in every aspect of veterinary medicine. Furthermore, being accredited enables us to give your pet the care they truly deserve–at every visit.

Introducing AAHA

AAHA is the American Animal Hospital Association, the sole accrediting organization for small animal hospitals throughout the United States and Canada. Established in 1933, AAHA has since inspired approximately 15% of all North American animal hospitals to strive for excellence in veterinary medicine. In choosing to become accredited, our team has taken up the challenge of becoming a superior animal hospital in every respect. This means excelling in areas such as pain management, client and patient care, anesthesia and monitoring, equipment, safety techniques and much more. We have chosen this status due to our genuine passion for helping animals and nurturing strong bonds in our community.

Becoming an AAHA-accredited hospital is one step; maintaining accreditation is another. Every three years, AAHA experts evaluate our practice in over 900 areas of veterinary care and service. To remain accredited, we must pass inspection in all of these areas. Animal hospitals that hold this distinction are thorough, responsive, sanitary and above all, safe. We are proud to be an example of veterinary excellence in our community, and will continue to go above and beyond for you and your pet.

Why AAHA Accreditation Matters For You & Your Pet

Unlike human hospitals, veterinary hospitals are not required to be accredited to practice veterinary medicine. And did you know that almost 60% of people believe their veterinarian is accredited when they’re actually not? So, why does it matter whether or not your vet is AAHA-accredited? Watch this short video to learn more about why it matters that our three hospitals are AAHA-accredited and how these high standards ensure your pet will be receiving the very best in care at Dundee Animal Hospital!

Unfortunately, I recently had to put my cat, Bart, down. I want to commend first, Dr. Kelly Moderhack, for taking such good care of Bart over the years and for her being there for Bart in his last hour. Dr. Kelly provided a very peaceful and tranquil atmosphere for Bart and it was very comforting for us. I also want to commend Dr. Adamo for her excellent bedside manner in giving me the unfortunate news that it was in Bart's best interest to be euthanized. Also, Bonnie, the receptionist, was so compassionate throughout the process and provided a lot of comfort to us. I would never hesitate to bring another pet to Dundee Animal Hospital. Thank you to all of you for being there for us.
Dundee animal hospital is the best vet I've dealt with in 50 years as a pet owner. From the most helpful and knowledgeable front desk, to the kind and caring techs, I trust our pet will get the best care here. The veterinarian docs always have the best care in mind for your pets. I wouldn't trust our four year old Berner with any other practice!
Dr. Christensen is amazing. Period.
Would like to thank the veterinarian, can’t remember her name, who took care of my Buckley on Saturday 1/11morning for a respiratory/sinus infection. He is doing wonderfully on his medicines. He’s almost back to his old self. Wizzing is gone. I can thank you all enough on taking excellent care of my pride and joy, Buckley
