Overview

Van Aken Pet Hospital has treated your pet like one of our family since 1957. We are the veterinarian for cats, dogs, ferrets, rabbits, pocket pets, reptiles, and birds — providing compassionate, skilled care at fair prices

Van Aken Pet Hospital has been a cornerstone of pet healthcare in Phoenix, Arizona for nearly seven decades. Founded in 1957, our practice was built on a simple principle: provide the best possible care for every pet that walks through our doors. Over the years, we've grown alongside the Phoenix community, caring for generations of families and their beloved companions. From puppies and kittens to senior pets, from common household animals to exotic species — we've seen and treated them all with the same dedication and compassion. Today, under the leadership of Dr. Suzanne Johnsen, DVM, we continue that tradition of excellence

Mission — To be the place where caring individuals bring their pets for trusted, affordable, and compassionate veterinary care
