For generations of East Orange families, the animal hospital on Central Ave has been where dogs, cats and small animals get medical, surgical and dental care from people who know them by name.

From the first puppy or kitten visit to senior care, we handle both emergency cases and everyday medical, surgical and dental needs under one roof.

Nose-to-tail checkups, vaccinations and preventative care that catch problems before they grow.

Something off with your pet? We take urgent and emergency cases. When in doubt, call us first.

Spay and neuter, soft-tissue procedures and dental cleanings done in-house by hands your pet knows.

First shots, deworming, microchips and honest guidance for the newest member of the family.

Calm handling and feline-savvy medicine for cats who would very much rather be home.

We care for all kinds of animals. Call ahead and we will tell you honestly if your companion is one we can help.

Dr. Michael Santiago and the team treat every animal that comes through the door like a valued family member, because in East Orange, they usually are. No upsell, no runaround: an honest diagnosis and a plan you understand.
