Our Services

IconPreventative Care

At Chadwell Animal Hospital, prevention is at the heart of everything we do. We are committed to taking a proactive approach to your pet’s health, helping them enjoy longer, happier, and healthier lives. By scheduling regular check-ups and focusing on wellness care, we can minimize long-term health risks and expenses. Our personalized approach tailors care to your pet’s specific age, breed, and lifestyle, ensuring they thrive at every stage of their life.

Good oral health is essential for your pet’s comfort and long-term wellness. We provide full-service dental care, including exams, ultrasonic cleanings, digital dental X-rays, and surgical extractions when needed. Our team is especially skilled at managing dental disease in cats, offering services like full-mouth extractions to relieve pain and improve quality of life.

Our experienced veterinary team offers a wide range of surgical procedures for both traditional and exotic pets, including spays, neuters, mass removals, soft tissue surgery, and laser surgery. We also perform select orthopedic procedures for exotic species. Every surgery is carried out with careful anesthesia monitoring, pain control, and attentive recovery support.
 

When answers are needed fast, our in-house laboratory and advanced diagnostic tools help us assess your pet’s health quickly and accurately. We offer in-clinic bloodwork, digital radiology (including dental X-rays), and ultrasound services through a board-certified sonographer who visits twice weekly.

From birds and snakes to sugar gliders and turtles, our veterinarians are uniquely trained and equipped to care for a wide range of species. We’re one of the few practices in the region that regularly sees exotic pets and wildlife. We also collaborate with rescue organizations, nature centers, and rehabilitation groups to provide expert care beyond the exam room.

Using the Companion therapy laser, we provide drug-free relief and accelerated healing for conditions like arthritis, wounds, disc disease, post-op pain, and inflammation. It’s a gentle and effective treatment we often recommend for both chronic issues and surgical recovery.

Our Story

At Chadwell Animal Hospital, it is our privilege to care for your pets, and it’s a responsibility we carry with pride and purpose. Since 2003, we’ve been honored to serve the Abingdon, Bel Air, and greater Harford County communities with expert, compassionate care for pets of all kinds.
Chadwell Animal Hospital first opened its doors in September 2003, the vision of Dr. Keith Gold and Dr. Ruby Schaupp—a husband-and-wife team with years of experience in veterinary medicine. After working at several hospitals throughout Baltimore County, they decided to combine their ideas, skills, and dedication to create a practice that would be professional, efficient, educational, compassionate, and fun.

What Makes Us Different

At Chadwell Animal Hospital, we combine deep medical expertise with a warm, personal approach. We believe exceptional care means understanding not only your pet’s needs but also your concerns, your questions, and your goals for their lifelong health.
