Where family pets find loving care
Thank you for your continued patience and understanding with our team! Like most veterinary hospitals, we are booking farther out than normal while also trying to maintain the quality of care that our staff, clients & pets deserve. We know this is not ideal and want to address the questions and concerns surrounding the busyness of the veterinary industry.
- The pet-to-vet ratio was (and continues to be) significantly unbalanced, which hinders the ability to source, recruit and hire newly graduated veterinarians.
- The demand for veterinary services increased significantly due to the explosion of pet adoptions (+200%) in the past few years. Sadly, only about 1,500 veterinarians are graduating each year in the United States. This leaves us incredibly short-handed as an industry across the nation.
- Our team has implemented many new features to improve the client experience.

Parasite Prevention and ControlThere was a time when parasites like fleas, ticks, and roundworms were considered mostly a nuisance. Now, however, we know that parasites can cause serious illness and even death in pets.

I love UP Veterinary Hospital. We have taken our dog for care there for the three years we have lived in UP. All the vets and staff we have interacted with have been very professional and caring. Our dog gets very nervous going to see any vet but they treated her kindly every time. Dr Paulette is so nice and we feel she did a thorough exam of our elderly dog. I highly recommend them if you are looking for a new vet.Denise DeLaFontaine
