Raleigh Community Animal Hospital
We are a dedicated team, working hard to deliver the care that we believe everyone wants for their pets. We like to smile (sometimes dance), love puppy kisses, and don't mind dealing with your grumpy cat. We want to be your first and primary source of information for the care of your pets. The RCAH Vision: Helping people; helping pets; helping our community.

We strive to be known as a trusted animal care resource in the community, not just a business, and to be connected to our patients, clients, animal advocates, and larger community. Our Core Focus: Care for people by caring for their pets; asking ourselves with purpose: what can we do to make it easier (whether: financially, emotionally, time-wise)?

Our Passion - Our Purpose - Our Niche: Exceeding people's expectations by helping people, helping pets, and helping our community with affordable, quality care. Dr. Teresa grew up training dogs and showing horses in Upstate New York, receiving her Bachelors of Science degree in Zoology and completing her Doctorate of Veterinary Medicine degree in 1999 from the University of Wisconsin.

Dr. Teresa grew up training dogs and showing horses in Upstate New York, receiving her Bachelors of Science degree in Zoology and completing her Doctorate of Veterinary Medicine degree in 1999 from the University of Wisconsin.
Upon graduation, Dr. Teresa worked in rural Wisconsin hospitals until she moved to Raleigh in 2004.
When not caring for your furry family members, Dr. Teresa and husband, Jaime, are managing the lives of their children and finding any opportunity to steal away and go camping, to music festivals, and dancing.
Raleigh Community Animal Hospital recognizes that we have a special responsibility to the community beyond our mission to provide quality healthcare to your pet; thus we are committed to community service.
The most commonly reported rabid animals here in Wake County include foxes, raccoons, and bats.
Your pets are not automatically immune to this disease and must be vaccinated against it.
State law and county ordinance require dogs and cats four months of age and older to be vaccinated every one to three years, depending on the type of vaccine used and the age of the animal.
Our appointments are scheduled so that you and your pet can be seen promptly.
We do accept walk-in's; however, appointments will be given first priority.
Upon scheduling your appointment, our team members will attempt to accommodate all your requests to the best of our ability.
We are open late on Tuesday and Thursday and have weekend hours to accommodate the busiest of schedules.
Emergencies are accepted anytime our hospital is open.
If you feel you have an emergency with your pet, please call us or come to the hospital immediately.
Teresa is a fantastic diagnostic vet who takes the time to find out about you and your pet as part of the diagnostic process, she doesn't just throw a bunch of tests out there hoping to find something.
She evaluates behavior, behavioral changes and environmental changes in conjunction with any testing and I just love this about her - something that a lab might not consider significant, Dr. Teresa looks at the big picture and recognizes that it might be important.
And this kind of personal service takes time - time that you don't get from most other vet hospitals.
