Founded in 1956, Armistead Avenue Veterinary Hospital is a busy small animal practice that takes pride in helping its community. Located in Hampton, Virginia, this AAHA-accredited practice has a strong reputation in the area and works to accommodate all clients. With an efficient, communicative, highly skilled staff, the practice does everything it can to make the client and patient experience pleasant and stress-free. The team provides primary and urgent care treatment, as well as soft tissue surgery and dentistry. A visiting board certified surgeon and skilled ultrasonographer are utilized weekly to augment the diagnostic and treatment strategies provided by our five dedicated veterinarians.
Culturally, Armistead Avenue Veterinary Hospital is a great environment for new and experienced veterinarians alike. The team is extremely collaborative and encourages one another to improve their skills and build knowledge. Due to the supportive environment, a majority of doctors and support staff have been with the practice for multiple years. In fact, more than 10 employees have been with the practice for longer than a decade. Those attributes, combined with the spacious facility in a beautiful area, five supportive doctors, and four collaborative LVTs, make Armistead a fantastic place for veterinarians and support staff to grow their careers.
