We intend to achieve this by providing outstanding client-centered service and quality patient care on a daily basis. We will exhibit respect for ourselves, our clients, our patients and fellow staff at all times. Through continuous quality improvement, we will strive to improve both personally and professionally by attending continuing education classes and challenging ourselves to attain higher standards in all that we do.

Our History:

Breton Veterinary Hospital opened its doors on August 28, 1990, under the direction of Dr. Lynn Fenwick. The hospital was named after her treasured Cocker Spaniel "Breton"' who had been named after Breton Bay in Leonardtown.

Breton Veterinary Hospital occupied rented space until July 1991 when we moved to our new state of the art facility. A lot of time was spent in planning the new facility to make it as accommodating as possible for our clients and patients. Some new additions to help make your wait more comfortable are our cat gazebo; which helps separated our feline and canine friends, a playhouse for the children and a refreshment area.

The hospital contains a full service laboratory and pharmacy as well as radiology, surgical and dental suites. We have a large treatment area and five state of the art exam rooms. Most diagnostic and treatment procedures can be handled within the hospital. Evening, weekend, and holiday emergencies are handled by the Southern Maryland Referral and Emergency Service, Inc. in Waldorf.  

Preventative health care can help add to the quality and length of your pet's life. As a responsible pet owner, you will be faced with major decisions concerning your pet's health and well-being. Providing good nutrition, shelter, and veterinary medical care are all a part of owning a pet. When your pet is healthy it will be more active, look better, and have fewer health problems.
