The OVC Teaching Hospital offers medical and surgical care for small and large animals, while training future veterinarians in a challenging clinical environment. It is a major window to the community for OVC and the University of Guelph. Primarily a referral hospital, the VTH treats approximately 16,000 companion animal, equine, domestic farm animal and exotic species each year. The field services also provide primary care for ruminant and swine clients on farms throughout the region. The teaching hospital is at the core of the college, providing learning opportunities as well as advancing the field of veterinary medicine through clinically-based research and clinical service.
A new addition to the OVC is the Hill's Primary Healthcare Centre, opened in 2010. primarily funded by the Ontario government and Hill's Pet food. The new facility is designed as a stand-alone veterinary hospital for routine vaccinations, spays and neuters and other wellness visits. It is designed to provide students educational experiences in all aspects of primary health care, from surgical and technical skills to business and communication skills to preventive medicine, nutrition and animal welfare and behaviour.
