Whether your pet needs routine care - such as an exam or vaccination booster - or they need help when suffering from an illness or injury, you want a veterinarian you can rely on to deliver quality care. You also want someone whom you can trust to treat both you and your pet with respect. Choosing an AAHA certified animal hospital - such as Kings Crossing Animal Hospital - is the best way to guarantee gold-standard care for your pet and top-notch customer service for you. We are proud to be an AAHA accredited vet in Atascocita and would like to explain what this designation means.

Founded in 1933, it is the only organization that accredits American animal hospitals.

While accreditation is mandatory for hospitals that provide care for humans, the process is strictly voluntary for animal hospitals. As a result, only about 12% of facilities in the United States are accredited.

To earn accreditation, animal hospitals must be evaluated on more than 900 standards that encompass everything from customer service and patient care to cleanliness, operating procedures, and much, much more. Once a facility is accredited, they must be re-evaluated every three years in order to maintain their accreditation.
