Animal & Bird Health Care Center

What Animal & Bird Health Care Center does

Animal & Bird Health Care Center is a privately held, single-location veterinary hospital founded in 1990 and based at 1785 Springdale Road in Cherry Hill, New Jersey. The practice provides comprehensive veterinary medical care for domestic pets (dogs and cats) alongside specialized care for exotic species including birds, small mammals, and reptiles. Service lines include wellness examinations, vaccinations, diagnostic testing, surgery, pet urgent care, boarding, and an online pharmacy. The clinical team includes five veterinarians and four support staff, notably featuring a board-certified zoologist and a board-certified avian specialist, which positions the clinic as one of the more established exotic-pet referral centers in the NJ/PA/NY Tri-State area.

The business operates on a direct-to-consumer, appointment-based model serving Cherry Hill and ten surrounding South Jersey communities (Voorhees, Marlton, Mt. Laurel, Medford, Haddonfield, Haddon Heights, Haddon Twp, Audubon, Collingswood). Bookings are captured via a PetDesk-powered online widget, phone, or email, and prescriptions and supplies are fulfilled through a VetsFirstChoice online pharmacy storefront. Revenue is generated primarily through per-visit professional service fees, with secondary streams from boarding admissions and pharmacy sales. The clinic uses a $25 first-visit promotion to attract new patients and maintains an organic digital presence via Facebook, Instagram, and an SEO-optimized website with educational resources and species-specific intake forms.

The practice is founder/owner-operated with no disclosed institutional investment, parent company, or external capital. There are no published financials, certifications, patents, or active M&A activity. Technology adoption is limited to the third-party booking and pharmacy platforms noted above; there is no evidence of proprietary technology, AI tooling, or data products. Operating hours (Monday–Friday 8 AM–5 PM, Saturday 8 AM–1 PM) and a single physical footprint define the current scale of the operation.

Scale indicators2 records

Recent moves5 records

Expansion highlights4 records

Broad incumbents

• BluePearl Pet Hospital: National specialty and emergency veterinary hospital chain with locations across the Northeast. Directly comparable on the specialty/exotic and emergency referral side of ABHCC's offering, with greater scale and 24/7 coverage.
• VCA Animal Hospitals: Large national network of general and specialty veterinary hospitals (owned by Mars Petcare). Competes for primary and specialty cases across the region and offers extended hours, pricing scale, and broad service breadth that an independent single-site practice cannot match.
• Banfield Pet Hospital: Nation's largest general-practice veterinary chain, co-located in PetSmart stores. Competes on wellness and preventive care in the same New Jersey catchment via standardized pricing, hours, and Optimum Wellness Plans.
• MedVet: Specialty and emergency veterinary hospital network with Northeast locations. Competes for specialty referral volume and emergency cases, offering broader specialist depth and around-the-clock coverage than a single-site practice.
• Penn Vet (University of Pennsylvania) Ryan Veterinary Hospital: Academic veterinary teaching hospital in Philadelphia offering specialty and exotic animal services. Competes for high-acuity exotic and referral cases from the same Tri-State catchment as ABHCC, with greater specialist depth.

Emerging players

• Veterinary Emergency Group (VEG): Rapidly expanding veterinary emergency and specialty hospital chain with Northeast locations. Competes for urgent and emergency cases that ABHCC currently captures via its Pet Urgent Care service, with 24/7 availability.

Direct peers

• The Center for Avian & Exotic Medicine: Specialty exotic-animal veterinary practice in New York City focused exclusively on birds, small mammals, and reptiles. Directly comparable to ABHCC's exotic specialization and referral positioning, though operating in a different metro.
• Mount Laurel Animal Hospital: Multi-service animal hospital in nearby Mount Laurel, NJ offering general practice, specialty, and emergency care. Comparable as a regional companion-animal provider with overlapping service lines and similar tri-state catchment.
• Cherry Hill Animal Hospital: Independent companion-animal hospital located in Cherry Hill, NJ, serving the same primary catchment with general practice services. Directly comparable in size, geography, and service mix, but does not have ABHCC's exotic-pet specialty positioning.

Regional players

• NorthStar VETS: Specialty and emergency veterinary hospital group serving New Jersey and Pennsylvania. Competes for referral cases, particularly exotic and specialty cases that ABHCC currently captures as one of the Tri-State's established referral centers.
