Welcome to Access Veterinary Care
A recent study found that over a third of cat owners and a quarter of dog owners get stressed just thinking about going to the vet. We think that’s unacceptable. The best treatment in the world does nothing if you don’t have access to it, and we understand that stress, inconvenience, and confusion are real hurdles in getting pets the healthcare you want for them.

What our pet families say
Don’t just take our word for it – hear from the families who trust us with their beloved pets’ healthcare.
“Dr. Rowland and his team at Access got me in for a late appointment to treat this stray I feed ‘Mr. Rags’ that had a very swollen cheek and neck and they did an urgent procedure to remove an apple-sized pocket of infection and now Mr. Rags is out of pain and feeling 100% better! Thank you all so much!”
