About us
At DCES, we cultivate an atmosphere of continuous learning, diversity, unity, and growth. Our culture is built on four foundational values: Compassion, Collaboration, Education, and Integrity.

We take pride in being a teaching hospital and fostering the next generation of veterinary professionals.
What sets us apart is our unique multi-departmental structure. We house seven specialty departments under one roof: Neurology, Oncology, Ophthalmology, Radiology, Surgery, Internal Medicine, and ER/ICU.
