My husband and I love Orange Park Animal Hospital! From all the vets in the area this one quickly became our favorite after it opened. We’ve been using OPAH for years at this point. We trust Dr. Gillen and his staff completely to care for our mini zoo. They are reasonably priced as far as vet care goes but they also have vet plans available that cover a lot of different annual and bi annual services. The office and exam rooms are clean, in a convenient location for us, and the hours are great. Most importantly, they truly care about the animals that are in their care. Whenever they treat any of our cats or our dog we don’t doubt they want what’s best for the animal.

To date, I've brought 4 animals here. They have been wonderful with each one. Dr. Gillen & his talented team of nurses and techs are truly people you want looking over your babies!

It was Labor Day and we just bought a puppy the day before. He was pretty sick and wasn't sure what was wrong with him. I didn't expect any vet to be open and this was the only one I could find open. They so gracefully allowed me to bring my pup in, even though they were booked. I was really impressed despite being busy the vet took his time with my puppy. He explained what type of treatment he should get, etc...... And what was wrong. I actually thought the bill was going to be $$$$$$$ but it was very responsible. I would recommend this vet ER to friends who live near by or even an hour away (like me) if it was truly an emergency and couldn't get into their regular vet. Definitely worth the drive for my puppy. Pics weren't taken at the clinic. Just wanted to post couple pics of my cute puppy.

Dr Gillen & staff are so caring of your animals and you. They have gone above and beyond to help my 14 year old lab.

Wonderful care! They extracted my dogs tooth and gave my puppy a check-up. I'll continue to bring my babies here!
