Monmouth Small Animal Hospital began in 1989. In 2007, we found that our ever-growing business needed to be expanded, so we had a major remodel done. We doubled the size of our practice, including 3 exam rooms, a large lobby, and a surgery suite with an attached treatment/pre-op/post-op room.
Today, our full-service veterinary team cares for a range of small animals, including dogs, cats, birds, and beyond.
About the ClinicAt Monmouth Small Animal Hospital, we’re growing—and we’re excited to welcome another veterinarian to our team! Our practice is known for delivering high-quality medicine while empowering pet owners through education and partnership. We offer a diverse caseload that keeps every day interesting, including general medicine, dentistry, advanced soft tissue surgery, and a strong focus on reproduction and theriogenology—making us one of the few practices in the region with this specialty focus.
We’re equipped with modern tools including digital radiography, ultrasound, and laser therapy, and we’re always open to investing in new equipment to support our doctors’ interests and elevate patient care.
About the TeamOur team is collaborative, supportive, and genuinely enjoys working together. Whether you’re a seasoned DVM or a new graduate, you’ll find an environment where mentorship, growth, and teamwork are prioritized. We love to teach, share knowledge, and celebrate wins—big and small.

Heartland Veterinary Partners is a support organization that is committed to improving the lives of veterinarians. We purchase veterinary practices and provide operational support to relieve administrative burdens such as payroll, recruiting, HR, marketing and accounts payables. If needed, we invest to support growth. The practices maintain their unique branding, culture and clinical autonomy.
At Heartland, we believe that selling a veterinary practice shouldn’t mean losing what makes it remarkable. When we acquire a practice, the doctor comes first. We listen closely to their needs in order to create a one-of-a-kind solution to ease their administrative burdens—all without disrupting their day-to-day operations, the culture they’ve fostered, and the relationships they’ve built. In other words, the name over the door doesn’t go away. The headaches of running a business do.
Partnering veterinarians appreciate an improved work-life balance, less financial worry, and the confidence that their teams will be in good hands. Best of all, they get to focus on why they entered the business in the first place: to care for animals and to be present when their clients need them most. Practice team members enjoy the warm culture of their individual community practices combined with the support and resources that Heartland brings to the table.
Improving the lives of veterinarians means supporting them at all stages of their careers. Whether you're a veterinary student or a new graduate looking for hands-on learning to begin your career or an experienced veterinarian looking to tackle management and leadership opportunities, we keep your goals at the heart of everything we do.
The Heartland Support Center team is hardwired to serve. We follow the philosophy of servant leadership and put the needs of others first with a genuine desire to help. As a result, Heartland’s practices count on team members to be there for them with heart and solution, not a corporate agenda.
