As an AAHA-accredited hospital, you can be confident that the quality of medicine practiced here is rigorously upheld across the board. Our comprehensive medical services range from foundational pet wellness and prevention to complex surgical procedures and advanced care. We utilize thorough testing and diagnostics, and our emergency services and diagnostic imaging meet the highest quality standards recognized by AAHA. We provide urgent care during regular hours and maintain a strong referral relationship with Points East Veterinary Specialty Hospital for after-hours emergency cases, ensuring pets in our care always have access to continuous coverage.

Stepping outside the hospital, you will find yourself in Greenville, North Carolina, a community where Animal Hospital of Pitt County has served the community since 2012.
