Our History
In 1963, Dr. John W. Whiteley opened Alta Veterinary Hospital. For over fifty years we have been in this community. His desire has always been to serve the people and their pets in the southeast portion of Salt Lake County. Our services have expanded over the years to include laser therapy, orthopedics, complete senior health care, and full dental services (including dental x-ray). We have always tried to provide progressive and updated services for your pet here at Alta Veterinary Hospital. Our hospital team is highly trained and dedicated to pet health care. Our team shares a common goal of being the best we can possibly be, in providing the high quality care your pets deserve.
