Hamilton Mill Animal Hospital

Hamilton Mill Animal Hospital is an animal hospital in Buford, GA. The practice provides comprehensive veterinary care for dogs and cats, from routine nose-to-tail wellness exams and preventative medicine to testing and diagnostics, advanced medical care, and surgical procedures. Its services also include urgent care, pet boarding, and grooming, with bathing, trimming, and styling for most breeds. The hospital serves the Buford community and the surrounding area, and it holds a rating of 4.80 from the customers who have reviewed it.

The hospital's treatment philosophy centers on prevention through early diagnosis and treatment, since pets often hide the signs of illness. Its diagnostic capabilities include blood and lab tests, which establish a baseline for a pet's health and allow problems to be caught early, and electrocardiograms, which record the heart's electrical activity to detect abnormal rhythms. The veterinary team also diagnoses and manages dermatologic conditions such as allergies, infections, parasites, and inflammatory skin disease, and provides dental care, bathing, and nail trimming.

Hamilton Mill Animal Hospital is accredited by the American Animal Hospital Association. That accreditation requires regular evaluations covering surgery, exam facilities, patient care, cleanliness, client service, emergency services, diagnostic imaging, and anesthesiology, and only 15 percent of animal hospitals in the United States and Canada hold it. The practice describes itself as committed to small animal patient care and to a supportive atmosphere for its team, and it is hiring veterinarians.

The hospital sits on Braselton Highway, about 0.2 miles from Duncan Creek and the Gwinnett County Public Library, and roughly 0.3 miles from Duncan Creek Park. Gwinnett County Station 18 Fire Station is about half a mile away, and Northeast Georgia Physicians Group is about 0.6 miles away.

For pet owners in Buford, the combination of AAHA accreditation and a 4.80 rating reflects a practice built around preventative care and thorough diagnostics for dogs and cats.
