The veterinarians and staff at Chimacum Valley Veterinary Hospital and Pet Townsend Veterinary Clinic have set a high standard for pet care in Jefferson County. We are proud of our reputation as compassionate veterinary professionals who provide the best possible care at an affordable price.
With our two locations nine miles apart in Port Hadlock and Port Townsend, we are able to offer a broad range of veterinary services—from traditional preventive and dental care, diagnostic testing, and surgical services to non-traditional integrated healing therapies like acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine—which means we can respond to specific preferences when it comes to the care and treatment of our client’s pet.
