We provide laser therapy to help care for animals who have had surgery, been injured or suffer from chronic pain. We have a new IM3 dental machine for cleaning, polishing, extractions. Your pet will also receive a fluoride treatment and we will teach you how to do home care. Working with the RHSPCA and local prosecutors, Dr. Pettigrew has already testified in cruelty cases.

Radiology is an important part of our work being the sight to unveil what's under the skin which assist in our prognosis of issues. We now have calming music for animals playing in our reception area to calm them when entering the hospital. That is a new concept developed by Dr. Marty Becker. North Fork Veterinary Hospital (NFVH) is dedicated to providing kind and compassionate care for your pets.
Services
We specialize in behavior consults helping you make your pet the best pet possible. We can help you find the right pet for your needs, working closely with the Rockingham- Harrisonburg SPCA. Undesirable behaviors negatively impact the relationship we have with our pets.

Creating a better life for you and your pet by preventing and treating negative behavioral problems using a combination of compassion and scientific methodology that nurtures the human-animal bond is our long standing community goal.Dr. Pettigrew is very close to becoming a certified in cruelty and forensic medicine to help all those defenseless animals who have been abused.
Working with RH SPCA and local prosecutors, Dr. Pettigrew has already testified in cruelty cases. She is taking courses to become certified in cruelty and forensic medicine in order to help all those defenseless animals who have been abused.

A combination of veterinary medicine, veterinary forensics, animal care and the practices used in organized crimes against animals such as dogfighting and cockfighting as well as other abuses are apparent in successfully pursuing animal cruelty cases.We will have this service available to assist prosecutors in their efforts to prosecute these crimes.
Sometimes hospitalization is inevitable. And for those times when you need to hospitalize your pet, we are ready. Our hospital is complete with heart-worm treatments, IV fluid pumps, continuous monitoring, sanitary rooms, and trained staff with an isolation room to keep contagious diseases separate from the rest of the hospital so your pet can recover in quiet.
We have a full in house lab to run tests with results usually in 10 minutes. We can check liver, kidney and for diabetes as well as infections, anemia, electrolyte imbalances and other diseases. We also do urinanalysis, fecals for intestinal parasites, skin, ear and fecal cytology, feline leukemia, FIV and heart worm tests.
All pets should wear collar tags imprinted with their name and the phone number of their pet parent, but only a microchip provides permanent ID that cannot fall off, be removed, or become impossible to read. We offer microchipping so if your pet becomes lost, they stand the best chance of being found.

Everyone was very kind and loving. First time my cat actually let a vet staff touch her without freaking out. They were also reasonably priced for care visit and medicine. I highly recommend.

I am only giving 1 star because I have to give a rating otherwise it would be No stars!They wouldn't make an appointment for my dying cat to put her to sleep because she wasn't in their system. They said they could see her in 1 week. We had her to them many years ago and she never had health issues and she was an indoor cat for 19 years. So unless you take your pet there for all kinds of bloodwork, meds and buy food your pet won't eat, as was the case with her 2 sisters we had, you can forget them putting your beloved pet out of their pain. No pet should ever suffer just because they aren't in

This vet has been so good to my animals. They are very caring and helpful. Also they call to check up on my animals after they have had a surgery or they've been sick, Wonderful People.

Happy with this vet and all other staff! They are good with cats and dogs and seem to genuinely care about the animals. I feel like they try to get you in ASAP, I've never had to wait too long for an appointment. Prices reasonable for veterinary care. Does whats needed but not tons of extra/possibly unnecessary testing. Thanks North Fork for the service you provide!
