Glenolden Animal Hospital was established in 1981 as a satellite clinic to a well established Delaware county hospital. The hospital was purchased by the current administration in 2017. After starting out as a one doctor practice we have grown significantly due to your support! Thirty eight years and thousands of patients later, Glenolden Animal Hospital has grown into a five doctor small animal/exotic practice. We have a dedicated staff of 20 well educated employees who are proud to care for our community's pets.

Very professional fair priced vet who truly loves your pet. Highly recommend if your looking for a vet or are unhappy with your current vet. Staff is friendly and truly cares for both you and your pet. Lastly, excellent website which is updated appropriately. They have also provided coupons for specific pet food and medicine. They truly get it and understand how difficult it is at times to provide the best care your pet deserves. Our golden retriever has been a patient for 8 years and received nothing but the best care

This visit was perfect. Everyone was pleasant to work with, informative, knowledgeable, and most importantly for me gentle and respectful of my cat. He's very nervous going anywhere but home and they showed so much understanding and compassion for him. They saw he was anxious and uncomfortable and they did all they could to lessen the stress he'd be under during exam, blood work, and x-ray.
They explained what they were doing, what they recommend, why, and what we could look out for in order to ensure he stays healthy as he gets older. No pressure to do certain things in that moment if price was an issue. They listened to my concerns and genuinely cared. We had a very unpleasant experience at a different vet office several months ago, and I refused to take him back there, so I was nervous to go anywhere again. Thankfully though, this office was incredible and I highly recommend it for anyone in the area. This was an exceptional experience.

The staff was hostile, intimidating and extremely disrespectful. I felt threatened by the tech for saying I used Google to try to understand if my cat was ill based off my cat's behavior. She began reprimanding me while raising her voice non stop for using Google, I felt extremely defenseless among many reasons one being that I didn't want to risk my cat being hurt by the staff since I was not allowed to be in the room they examined her in.
In the end, based on the facility exam of my cat she was fine. So the treatment I received for using Google was baseless and simply abuse. I have made a report to the State Board of Medicine Veterinarian Professional Compliance Office and this hospital is currently under investigation.

I've been going here for probably over 20 years and over 10 cats and dogs throughout the years. The vets and techs clearly love animals and I have always trusted them to be kind and caring with my fur kids. Today I had one of the best experiences, because I got to stay in the room with my cats for their shots and checkups. Thank you for making me feel my animals are in good hands, for taking so many precautions with COVID, and being the place I can always count on. I will gladly keep coming back.

You guys are awesome! I love the friendly customer service when you first come In, then greeted by a vet tech and then the doctor. I love Glenolden Animal Hospital. You all have provided great service for all of my animals. When my Great Dane Polo got hit by a car, I brought him in and within 2 mins he was taken and evaluated. I was a mess and you made sure you handled everything and communicated everything to me. Again, thank you!

The staff is friendly. The veterinarians are courteous and thorough. The wait time is minimal. They actually call you to confirm your appointment. When my cat was ready to be euthanized they were able to see me quickly in my time of need. I've never had a bad experience. I would definitely recommend Glenolden Animal Hospital. It's where I'll be taking my cats from now on.

Wonderful, caring staff that were amazing when I had to go through the difficult process of dealing with my fur baby's illness. When he eventually had to cross the rainbow bridge they made the process as comfortable as it can be, and followed up to check on me months after his passing. I was so impressed when they sent me a touching card with his pawprint, and a clay pawprint ornament. I will treasure them forever! Thank you for going above and beyond for all your animal family!
