Excellence in veterinary medicine, one furry friend at a time.
At Philadelphia Animal Hospital, we have proudly cared for your pets for 32 years. We've been through everything together, from a change in locations (twice!) to canine influenza, and more. One of the biggest challenges facing all veterinary clinics is the growth in pet ownership. We are overjoyed that more pets have provided love and companionship than ever before, and countless cats and dogs have been saved from shelters.
Our Story
Philadelphia Animal Hospital was founded in 1991 as a dream of Dr. Lawrence Rebbecchi Jr. to create a veterinary clinic in the city of Brotherly Love that could incorporate the best animal care, forward-thinking solutions, and comprehensive care in the area. Friends, family, and referrals lamented over the lack of thorough care options in the area - there was a need to be met. Dr. Rebbecchi's first office was on Grays Avenue where he began growing a client base. After a time, he relocated to his second office, understanding that the animals he was caring for, and the clients he had come to know as family would need a space that was larger, felt welcoming, and offered professional treatment spaces. Finally, in 2015, Dr. Rebbecchi relocated his office to the space it's in now at 7401 Holstein Ave.
