At VCA Chatoak Animal Hospital, we help pets live long, healthy and happy lives. We deliver the best medical care for pets and the best experience for pet owners.
Our veterinarians, technicians and other pet-friendly support staff are trained to the highest standards. Their thorough knowledge of the latest procedures and medications ensures that all our patients receive the best in preventive and healing care.
VCA Chatoak (formerly Pet Medical Center Chatoak) was founded in 1965. We have been in the same location ever since and are certified by the American Animal Hospital Association. Our most important goal is providing excellent veterinary medical care for the dogs and cats in our neighborhood, Chatsworth, Northridge, Woodland Hills, and Porter Ranch, and we take that responsibility seriously.
It's rewarding to know that you and your pet feel comfortable and cared for when you come to us for veterinary medical care. Even though we are one of the largest practices in the San Fernando Valley, every staff member at VCA Chatoak will listen to your needs. We will involve you with your pet's veterinary care each step of the way. Our veterinarians and technicians take the time to explain treatments with compassion and empathy. We are delighted to teach you how to take the best care of your pet at home so that you have a long life together.
