A Brief History of Companion Pet Clinic

Dr. Arthur Mills has owned the practice since 1987. He believes that the success of the clinic is partly due to the need that is present in our community, but primarily due to the employees' commitment, devotion, and concern for the pets and clients they serve. We strive to provide the best care we can to each and every patient we see. In 1994, Companion Pet Clinic North Salem was accepted as an Accredited Hospital Member of the American Animal Hospital Association. Only 14% of the small animal facilities in North America can claim this distinction. To maintain our accreditation, our hospital must meet the Associations high standards for quality veterinary care. We are regularly evaluated by trained AAHA professionals to ensure that we maintain association standards and provide the best veterinary care we can.

The AAHA standards of excellence cover the following areas and services in our hospital:

  • Pet Medical Records

  • Pharmacy

  • Radiology Services

  • Surgery

  • Nursing Care

  • Medical Library

  • Examination Facilities

  • Pathology Services

  • Anesthesia

  • Dentistry

  • Housekeeping and Maintenance

  • Emergency Services


​​​​​​​As you can see, these AAHA standards provide a benchmark for the quality of care we provide, as does our belief that "No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted."
