Link to Veterinarians

The Department of surgical services was established over 40 years ago by Dr. Anthony Palminteri, founder of Oradell Animal Hospital and followed shortly thereafter by co-owner Dr. William Stockman. Drs. Palminteri and Stockman received specialized surgical training at the ASPCA’s Henry Bergh Memorial Hospital in New York City, and Dr. Palminteri was among the first group of veterinary surgeons to be certified by the American College of Veterinary Surgeons (ACVS) in 1968.

Today, Oradell Animal Hospital has four board certified surgeons on staff who maintain the highest surgical standards while performing the latest techniques in soft tissue and orthopedic surgery. Our state-of-the-art facility contains special surgical suites dedicated to general, orthopedic, and cardiovascular surgeries, laparoscopy and arthrosocopy.
