Take a look at these 3 veterinary centers newly opened or coming soon

The opening of new veterinary clinics is crucial for expanding access to veterinary care for pets and their owners. With more facilities available, communities can benefit from increased availability of services, shorter wait times, and improved overall pet health. These new clinics play an important role in ensuring that pets receive the medical attention they need, which contributes to a healthier and happier environment for animals and their families.

Below are 3 clinics opening across the United States:

The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA) recently announced the opening of a 3rd ASPCA Community Veterinary Clinic at 36-01 14th Street, Long Island City, Queens, New York. The new clinic will offer affordable veterinary care to tens of thousands of pet owners in underserved areas each year, bettering the health and wellbeing of dogs and cats in the local community, according to a news release.1

"The need for affordable veterinary care is at an all-time high, and for many pet owners, keeping their beloved pets healthy can be a challenge, which puts stress not just on the animals, but on owners, families, and entire neighborhoods, because everyone is impacted when a vital family need is unmet," Matt Bershadker, ASPCA president and CEO, said in the release.1

A lack of affordable veterinary care in the area influenced the clinic’s location, according to the organization.1 The new facility will serve residents of nearby NYC Housing Authority (NYCHA) developments within walking distance, including in Queensbridge, Ravenswood, and Astoria. The clinic will provide partially and fully subsidized basic and preventive care for dogs and cats, including vaccinations, treatment for minor health issues, and spay/neuter surgeries. It will also offer spay/neuter surgeries and vaccinations to homeless pets supported by local rescue organizations.1

Also opening the doors of a new clinic is CityVet. Located at 1520 N Main St, Suite 600, Keller, Texas, the new facility will offer preventive treatments, diagnostics, surgical procedures, dental treatments, and advanced surgical options. The clinic is led by Kelsey Daugette, DVM, a graduate of Texas A&M University with 9 years of experience. According to CityVet, Daugette’s interests include soft tissue surgery, preventative care, ultrasound, and the human-animal bond.

“As a passionate animal lover and dedicated professional, I’m thrilled to welcome the Keller locals and their furry family members into our new clinic,” Daugette said in a news release.2 “At CityVet-Keller, we understand the deep bond between pets and their owners, and are committed to building long-lasting relationships. We’re eager to become your trusted partner in your pet’s healthcare journey.”

“We’re looking forward to partnering with Dr Daugette as we celebrate the opening of our 25th location in Dallas-Fort Worth,” said David Boguslawski, CityVet president and CEO, in the release.1 "Dr Daugette’s expertise, passion for veterinary medicine, and dedication to personalized care make this occasion even more special as we serve the Keller neighborhood and their pets,” he continued.

A new Chewy Vet Care location will be opening later this year. The clinic will be located at Halcyon, a mixed-use destination in Forsyth County. The opening will be part of Halcyon’s Phase III, according to a news release.3 Like its other veterinary practices, this new clinic will offer services like routine wellness care, urgent care, and surgeries.

“We are excited to open our third Chewy Vet Care location in Atlanta, which consistently ranks as one of the most pet-friendly cities in the country," said Mita Malhotra, president of Chewy Health, in a news release.3 "Our newest location at Halcyon represents our ongoing commitment to providing exceptional, personalized veterinary care throughout the region. We look forward to serving even more pets and their parents in this vibrant community."

The new Chewy location will be the 3rd in the metro Atlanta area. The clinic will provide in-person visits 6 days a week and 24/7 virtual health support. It will also offer mobile access to medical records, care plans, prescriptions, and appointment scheduling through a virtual pet portal.
