Services range widely from prophylactic pet wellness to elective and emergency surgical procedures. In addition, SVH utilizes a number of highly sophisticated diagnostic and treatment modalities currently unavailable at local hospitals.
ONCOLOGY
Stockton Veterinary Hospital offers on-site cancer care which is provided by our board-certified medical oncologist, Dr. M.J. Hamilton. Dr. Hamilton sees patients at SVH every week on Thursday mornings. This service allows pet owners to receive specialist care at our convenient location without the need to travel to a specialty hospital.
Dr. Hamilton and his technicians bring years of experience in pet cancer care to our hospital. Oncology services offered include immunotherapy, chemotherapy, cancer pain management, quality of life enhancement, cancer diagnostic testing and radiation therapy screening. During your consultation, Dr. Hamilton reviews your pet’s prognosis, treatment options and provides a treatment plan customized to your pet’s needs.

DENTISTRY
Our philosophy is that our patients must be healthy and happy. Dental care is a very important part of this. We use State-of- the- art dental equipment and procedures in order to always achieve this goal.
Reproduction
We perform Progesterone assays and Vaginal Cytology to assess timing for breeding, Artificial Insemination, Pregnancy Ultrasound or radiography, and should the need arise, Cesarean Sections. With Doctor Charlie’s long term experience with Bulldogs, c-sections are a common procedure.
SPECIALTY Medicine
Every patient is an individual. Therefore, no patient ever fits the textbook definition of an illness or injury. That makes Stockton Veterinary Hospital different. Every appointment, every test, every discussion is tailored to your pet, from wellness visits to endocrine disease to everything else.
