LOCATION:
Located at 3565 NE Sandy Blvd in the Hollywood District of Portland, Hollywood Pet Hospital
is also easily accessible from either the east or west via the I84 freeway.
PARKING:
Parking is on the street, and since Sandy Blvd is a very busy
thoroughfare, you will want to bring your dog on a leash, and plan to
contain your cat for safety. We also ask that you keep your dog
leashed while in the main waiting area.
HISTORY:
Originally known as the Sandy Boulevard Veterinary Clinic, the facility's
name was changed in 1980 to show its connection to the Hollywood
neighborhood when Dr. Robert Ward
and Dr. Laurence Sams bought the
practice and the building from Dr. Jack Hardesty.
Designed in the Art Deco style by local architect, Ralph Bonadurer,
Hollywood Pet Hospital opened in 1945, and is one of the oldest
veterinary practices in the city of Portland.
ACCREDITATION:
Hollywood Pet Hospital was the first Portland veterinary clinic to be accredited by
American Animal Hospital
Association (AAHA) in 1958. Fewer than 18 percent
of the small animal veterinary hospitals in the
United States and Canada are AAHA members. Accredited hospitals
undergo a detailed evaluation of services and equipment and
a trained practice consultant thoroughly inspects
the hospital to make sure it meets AAHA's high standards in the
following areas:
Emergency Services
Surgery & Anesthesia
Radiology Services
Pathology Services
Nursing Care
Pharmacy
|
Dentistry
Examination Facilities
Pet Medical Records
Medical Library
Housekeeping & Maintenance
|
SERVICES & EDUCATION:
In addition, we have
up-to-date radiology and dental equipment, a surgical suite, and an on-site lab to enable our doctors and staff to give the best of
care to your pets. Boarding services are also available, and include plenty of TLC.
Hollywood Pet Hospital believes in the importance of routine and
preventative care to keep pets healthy. We offer puppy and kitten well-health plans that include
physical exams, a series of vaccinations, and spaying or neutering.
Continuing education is an important part of maintaining our hospital's
high standards. All doctors and staff members attend annual seminars to stay current on advances in veterinary medicine
and to
improve patient care and client service.
At Hollywood Pet Hospital, we understand the close connection between
people and their pets, and all of us are dedicated to combining medical and surgical expertise with a warm and caring
atmosphere in a haven for healing.
