We are Open in our New Hospital! |
|
After two years of design, planning and construction, our new hospital in Shoreline opened on April 20th! Less than seven miles away from our current location, but worlds away in our ability to increase services to our patients, their owners, and our referring vets, our new hospital incorporates state-of-the-art design and equipment, as well as our new comprehensive Animal Rehabilitation Center.
Just north of Seattle, our new hospital is easy to find. Click for a printable copy of our Map and Directions. Do not rely on the Google map you may get if you search under "Animal Surgical Clinic of Seattle", since it will take you to our old hospital in Wallingford. Google is quite the slow behemoth when it comes to getting address changes made!
(If the above document does not open immediately, you’ll likely need to download the free Adobe® Acrobat® Reader.)
Our new address is:
14810 15th Ave NE, Shoreline, WA 98155
Our main phone number will remain the same, but we will have a new phone system in place to help direct your calls to the person best able to help you.
Our fax number is new: 206-545-4403
We looking forward to serving you in Shoreline!

One of the most exciting areas of the new hospital is our Animal
Rehabilitation Center , headed by Certified Canine Rehabilitation
Practitioner, Dr. Ahmad Jakish. The Center is equipped with
hydrotherapy (underwater treadmill), land treadmill and various other
treatment modalities. Our primary goals are to help our patients with a speedy
recovery, minimize pain along the way, and help to provide the best
quality of life in the long term.
In the past, when our surgeons felt a patient would benefit from
post-op rehabilitation or therapy, they had to refer clients out to
other local rehab practitioners. In our new hospital, we are fully
equipped to provide these services in-house!
Dr. Jakish will examine
each patient and develop a treatment plan customized to provide maximum
benefits for the patient, working in conjunction with the treating
surgeon. Some patients may have conditions best suited for
hydrotherapy in the water treadmill, while others may benefit from
conditioning on the land treadmill. Some cases will be suited for
laser therapy, ultrasound therapy, heat therapy, or a variety of
neuromuscular stimulation therapies. And of course, Dr. Jakish may
also perform treatments using traditional physical therapy modalities
such as massage and mobilization.
Our services aren't just for post-op patients. Any cat or dog with
functional issues such as neuromuscular disease, degenerative joint
disease or obesity may benefit from Dr. Jakish's services.
Conditioning and injury prevention programs are also available for
working, agility and hunting dogs.
