Company Overview

At Whole Pet Veterinary Hospital in Wilmington, we're dedicated to delivering full-service, holistic veterinary care within a warm, client-focused environment. We believe in treating each pet as a unique being—using both conventional and alternative therapies like acupuncture, herbal medicine, laser therapy, and spinal manipulation to support whole-health outcomes.

We strive to build deep, long-term relationships with our clients and their pets. From the moment someone enters our doors, our goal is to provide comfort, clarity, and compassion. We understand that facing a pet’s health challenge can be stressful, so we work hard to simplify the process, explain options clearly, and deliver thoughtful, patient-centered care.

Education and transparency are foundational to how we operate. We take time to guide pet parents through our recommendations, helping them feel confident and empowered to make informed decisions. Through open dialogue and shared decision-making, we cultivate trust and collaboration in every treatment plan.

If you’re seeking to join a hospital where your skills are respected, your growth is supported, and your passion for integrative veterinary medicine is shared by the team, we invite you to apply today.
