Pre-Opening Open House

Unity Animal Hospital Opens for Business, Monday, February 17.  Sneak Peeks and Celebrations, Sunday, February 16.

Unity Animal Hospital offers an exciting new option in comprehensive medical care for pet owners and their four-legged family members.  Owned and operated by two Delaware County residents, veterinarians Katherine Trow, VMD, and Abby Schutzman, VMD, Unity Animal Hospital uses a business model previously unheard of in veterinary practices. Operating much like a cooperative business (such as a food coop), members will pay a modest one-time initiation fee, along with a nominal monthly fee, allowing them to spread out all of their pet’s annual routine medical charges into small, monthly installments. 

The monthly fee will cover all of an animal’s standard preventive medical care, including an annual check-up, core vaccinations, and fecal and heartworm testing. Non-routine care, such as sick visits, surgery, and emergency care, will be offered at a reasonable additional cost. Membership is optional, although members will receive services at lower prices than non-members.

The mission of Unity Animal Hospital is to provide exceptional veterinary care at fair prices in an atmosphere of trust and respect. Drs. Trow and Schutzman are committed to maintaining a transparent, collaborative, and economically sustainable practice. With a focus on veterinarian-client partnership, Unity will offer a cooperative culture of support and respect for clients, patients, employees, the community, and the environment.

All are welcome to join the Unity staff for an open house from 3-6pm, Sunday, February 16th.  The entire Unity team will be available to meet you.  Come ask questions, get to know our staff, tour the hospital, and enjoy delicious locally-made refreshments provided by 320 Markets. This event is kid-friendly, but not for pets.
