At Knollwood Hospital for Pets, we have made it our mission to provide your pets with the same level of complete integrative veterinary medicine that we'd want for all of our own pets.  Both of our Doctors - Dr. Deborah Mitchell and Dr. Liv Kismartoni - bring the best from their advanced training in a wide variety of medical disciplines to help you learn how to keep your pet healthy.   And if your pet should ever become ill, we offer so much more than the average veterinary hospital.  From advanced medical diagnostics to veterinary acupuncture, from antibiotics to herbal and homotoxicology therapies, from surgery to veterinary chiropractic,  from hands-on care to energetic therapies such as Qi Gong and Reiki,  our Doctors and staff are trained to help your pet feel better fast!

And, we're  not just medically trained in a superior way - we never let our years of medical training outsmart our common sense and courtesy.  We understand that you have trusted us with the care of a pet dear to you, and we regard it as a partnership.  We do our best to make sure that that you fully understand the work that we are about to begin together, to help your pet maintain vibrant good health or to get better fast.  We make sure that you feel that all of your concerns have been heard, that we have fully answered all of your questions, and that our recommendations make sense. We never talk medical gibberish at you.  If English is not an easy language for you, we hope that you will let us know so that we can better serve you.  Dr. Kismartoni was raised in a Polish household and speaks that language well.  She can also understand basic Spanish, as can several other members of our staff.

Our wellness-focused integrative small animal hospital includes five spacious examination rooms, a complete surgical suite, complete dental care facilities, and comfortable, loving, "home-away-from-home" care for pets of all sizes.  And, our top-level American Animal Hospital Association status - which puts us among the top 5% of all veterinary practices in the entire United States - gives you further assurance that we practice state-of-the-art medicine, that our Doctors and staff take ongoing continuing education very seriously, and that we maintain the very highest standards of cleanliness and sanitation throughout our facility.  (To learn more about the AAHA accreditation process, click here. )  We are also an approved House Rabbit Society hospital.  We hope you will refer your family and friends to our practice.

At this site, you will find information about our integrative practice philosophy, our services, our highly-trained Doctors and staff, and an extensive Pet Medical Library for you to search for additional information.  Other highlights?  You can use our Celebrations area to tell everyone about your special pet - we love to share pet pictures and stories about our client's pets!  Our Memories page gives those who have lost a dear pet an opportunity to memorialize them in a loving and respectful way.  "Lizzie Said..." (currently under revision, since Lizzie's passing) gives you up-to-the-minute pet care information.  And we even list available jobs, externships for veterinary students and visiting Doctors, and our own Doctors' lecture and seminar schedules for the year.

Feel free to browse through our site.  If you want more information about our integrative practice please call or fax us at the numbers listed below.  Or, make an appointment to stop by for a cup of herbal tea and a quick tour of our hospital, conducted by one of our Veterinary Nurses.

Thanks for visiting!  We hope you'll tell your friends about us, and we look forward to serving you soon.
