About Our Hospital

Pilchuck Veterinary Hospital (PVH) is a multi-species animal practice located in Snohomish, Washington, providing high-quality, dedicated care for every patient. Since 1963, we’ve provided a full-service, multi-species practice. With more than 20 doctors on our team and a staff of 75+, we provide professional veterinary care 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year.

While we do not currently have a board-certified rehabilitation specialist on staff, rehabilitation programs are developed collaboratively and integrated with the patient’s ongoing care in partnership with the primary or referring veterinarian. This model supports strong interdisciplinary communication and continuity of care within our hospital. This position also offers the opportunity to help shape and expand integrative services within a large, collaborative, multidisciplinary hospital.

Pilchuck serves as a regional hub for the greater Puget Sound area. Our Integrative Medicine team manages a diverse caseload, with a reach that extends across Western Washington — from Whidbey Island to the Kitsap Peninsula — drawing clients who travel for our specialized expertise.
