Welcome to North Branch Veterinary Hospital

Dr. Al Kemplin, Dr. Doug Jacobs, Dr. Jeanne Chambers, and our team are committed to bringing you and your pets better health by practicing the science of Veterinary Medicine. North Branch Veterinary Hospital  was founded in 1973. Dr Al Kemplin took the hospital over in the summer of 1995. Since then our staff has been performing veterinary medicine and compassionate animal care in the North Branch area. North Branch Veterinary Hospital is a full-service animal hospital whose mission is to provide the highest standard of quality and compassion in veterinary care for our patients, informative and supportive service for our clients, while maintaining a superior working environment for our employees. North Branch Veterinary Hospital offers the North Branch animal community advanced laparoscopic and laser procedures, in addition to standard medical, surgical, and dental veterinary care. Because we have an in-house pharmacy, lab, radiology facilities, and Intensive Care Unit, our facility enables you to make one stop for your pet's medical care. We are open for appointments during normal business hours, evenings, and Saturdays. We are available for emergencies and also work closely with a 24-hour emergency clinic.
