Delaware Valley Veterinary Hospital, P.C.

What Delaware Valley Veterinary Hospital, P.C. does

Delaware Valley Veterinary Hospital, P.C. is a family-owned, AAHA-accredited veterinary hospital founded in 1994 by Dr. Steve Milden and located in Mullica Hill, New Jersey. The practice operates 24 hours per day, 7 days per week, 365 days per year, employing 11 veterinarians and 85+ support staff. It serves pet owners across the Gloucester County region, with five USDA-accredited veterinarians enabling health certificate services for interstate and international travel.

The hospital delivers full-service veterinary care spanning wellness examinations, surgery, dentistry, diagnostics, illness treatment, pain management, emergency care, and exotic pet medicine. The clinical technology stack includes digital X-ray, ultrasound, in-house laboratory diagnostics, laser therapy, and microchipping. Digital channels include a Televet Care mobile app, a Covetrus online pharmacy, and Koala Health prescription delivery, extending the practice's engagement beyond in-person visits.

Revenue is generated on a fee-for-service, pay-as-you-go basis across general practice, emergency, and ancillary service lines, with third-party financing options (CareCredit, ScratchPay) to reduce price friction for clients. The customer base is composed of individual pet owners — primarily dog and cat owners, plus exotic pet households and working/service animal clients — with no enterprise or anchor-account concentration. The practice has earned "Best of Gloucester County" recognition for eight consecutive years and maintains a referral network with external specialty and emergency providers (Pet PT, NorthStar Vets, VCA, MACH, PennVet, among others) to extend clinical scope without owning specialty infrastructure.
