Amazing experience, friendly staff, beautiful facility, and overall everything I could have asked for in a vet! I recently established care for my cat with Chatham Animal Hospital after she ran away for a few days, and Dr. Bailey walked me through everything I needed to know about her health with patience and positivity. I felt reassured that my cat was in the best hands, and am glad to know that she has a team of compassionate professionals that has her back if ever needed. I highly recommend this team for cat care- thank you so much Dr. Bailey and staff!

I cannot say enough good things about Chatham animal Hospital. I needed some last minute paperwork and physical for my cat for international travel. Dr. Morgan Craddock and her team really went above and beyond to help me out in a pinch! Not every veterinarian works with and understands the process for international travel for animals so I feel really lucky to have found them. Superb service, excellent care, and fabulous staff. What more could you want??

When I called them, a male answered the… phone and said, 'oh we switched our system last year, so I have to find the physical documentation, and then I can scan that in, and send it to you.' I asked him was he sure that he still had my dog's medical records. He said, 'oh yes, we just

Dr Bailey is absolutely amazing and put new completely at ease. My cars went to Petsmart at park west in morrisville previously, and we had an AWFUL experience there. One of my cats was being difficult, so they took her to another room, and I could hear her howling down the hallway. It broke my heart and made me feel incredibly uneasy. I had always gone to a petsmart back where I'm from in Kansas City, so I didn't do research when I moved to this area. I wish I had because it would have saved me a lot of heartache. Dr Bailey was amazing. He is incredibly knowledgeable, and happy to answer
