History
Adams
Mill Veterinary Hospital was established in 1993 by D. Marguerite
Adams, DVM. After securing a suitable location, Dr. Adams acquired
the necessary permits and was guided to the appropriate contractors
to totally renovate and fully equip the structure into a new 2,700
square foot hospital in about three months. Her motivation was
to provide a warm, friendly, state-of-the-art facility that would
serve the companion animal healthcare needs of the many friends/clients
who had prompted her initiative. In the spring of 2005, twelve
years after its opening, the Hospital expanded to 4,000 square
feet.
Adams
Mill Veterinary Hospital is pleased to offer comprehensive veterinary
