Associate Veterinarian

Pet accidents, illnesses, and injuries are all unfortunate and seem to always happen at the worst of times when primary care veterinarians are either closed or have no open appointments to see the pet. For these reasons, we are excited to announce Animal Urgent Care of Bentonville is now open!

Bentonville is like no other as it is one of the largest cities in Northwest Arkansas. It is a town with a big heart and even bigger ambition, where modern progress meets rich history. Bentonville offers a nostalgic and thrilling feel at the same time, with its many surrounding Museums and title as the Mountain Bike Capital of the World. Major cities such as Kansas City, Oklahoma City, St. Louis, Little Rock, and the Ozark Mountains are located within driving distance or by a quick flight. This town is the perfect location for families or young professionals seeking to plant their roots. The Northwest Arkansas corner is famous for everything outdoors from biking, hiking, kayaking, camping, hunting, and fishing. Come experience all our Natural State has to offer!
