Dr. Martin and her staff at Prime Care Animal Hospital have been providing exceptional and compassionate care at affordable prices to Gambrills and the surrounding area since 1998.

We offer comprehensive veterinary medical care for all your pet's needs. This includes, wellness exams, internal medicine work-ups, vaccinations, general surgery, dental services, radiology, laboratory, pharmacy, ultrasound, microchipping, senior pet evaluations, puppy and kitten health evaluations, and behavioral consultations, to name a few.

Prime Care Animal Hospital is also one of the few hospitals in the area to now offer laser therapy. Laser therapy is a non-invasive therapy for pain relief and faster healing. Lasers used for therapy use much less power than surgical lasers, and the beneficial effects come not from heat, but the stimulation of the body's natural healing process. Conditions such as arthritis, muscle tears, tendon and ligaments tears, stomatitis, otitis, surgical wounds, lick granulomas, and intervertabral disc disease can be treated with laser.

Please give us a call to help you with any of your pet's medical needs.
