veterinary office

Animal doctor's workplace

A veterinary office is a medical facility where animals receive healthcare from licensed veterinarians.

It handles routine care like vaccinations and checkups, minor surgeries, and treatment of illness or injury.

Larger facilities may be called veterinary clinics or animal hospitals: I need to take the cat to the veterinary office for her shots.
