Care Center Dayton

Care Center dedicates itself to recognizing the sanctity of the human-animal bond. We work towards this by creating a state-of-the-art facility that is recognized as the leader in veterinary medicine in the region. Our success is achieved by providing rewarding careers to all of our staff members, and by being a compassionate, competent and ever-present resource for our referring community and pet owners. Above all we achieve our goals best collectively, and no one person or department is more important than Care Center as a whole. This is how and why Care Center came to be, and we invite anyone who shares this vision to become a part of our success.

For nearly two decades, Care Center has proudly offered compassionate pet care to the Tri-State region. We’ve grown into two locations to better serve our hometown communities, but there’s one thing we’ll never outgrow—our commitment to companion animals and the people who consider them family.

After working together in an after-hours emergency care facility that closed at 8am, Dr. Daniel Carey, Dr. Douglas Hoffman and Dr. Sharmila Ruparel knew that the referring community and general public had a need for a 24-hour veterinary hospital that housed not only emergency, but other specialties as well. A call to Dr. Hoffman's former classmate and Cincinnati native, Dr. Michele Muldoon, brought a board-certified surgeon to the Care Center and the four partners opened in December of 2000, as the only 24-hour emergency and critical care referral practice in the Tri-state area.
