WELCOME TO NORTH OAKLAND VETERINARY HOSPITAL

This site is designed to keep my IMPORTANT clients up to date on new advances in veterinary medicine and also up to date on the growth of our practice. In time we will create links to other sites informing you of new advances. We have a very nice office on Walton Blvd in Waterford, MI NOW. We have been there for a number of years but some still think of us as working out of our home. We will always provide HOUSE CALLS but will NOW have office hours as well, provide hospitalization and boarding for OUR CLIENTS at this new facility. NOTHING is changing about our practice just our place of operation. We have needed more room FOR YEARS and it was the right time to make this move and expand our base of operation to help service your needs better. We hope this new website and our new facility will help you in many ways. If you have any suggestions please email them to me. Thank you for your LOYALTY and for visiting our site.

At North Oakland Veterinary Hospital, we treat your pets like the valued family members they are.

  • Renee Webb
    Receptionist

    Renee is the person that wants to help one more animal because they can't always look out for themselves. She has been working with us since April 2019. Renee loves all animals, big or small, cat or dog and can't wait to meet your furry friend.

  • Grace Herne
    Medical Assistant
    Grace is Dr. Mark’s daughter and helps answer the phone, assist our clients and does paperwork for her dad. She is a big help and loves the pets--especially the cats. She and my son were a big reason we used to rescue cats ALOT.....It has been harder to find homes since we moved into our office and the kennel is no longer at the entrance to the office. That entrance was quite inconvenient anyway.
  • Laura Herne

    Laura is Dr. Mark’s wife and makes our office beautiful. She is an animal lover and will sometimes answer your call when she is visiting the office. Her passion is decorating and she helps make our environment pleasant for you and your pets.
