Our animal hospital is lead by Dr. Sukhwinder Virk, who has been working as a veterinarian for Concord patients since 1998. He grew up on a farm in India and attended the Punjab Agricultural University School of Veterinary Medicine, as well as Purdue University in America, and has always been an advocate for animals in need. His thirty years working in our community shows his dedication and commitment to making a difference for our pets.

Prior to living in Concord, Dr. Virk specialized in emergency veterinary care in the Bay Area and Modesto, CA. He brings his expertise and compassion to every pet he cares for, especially. Dr. Virk, along with our team, believes in a gentle approach to veterinary care and always puts the needs of the animals before profit. We are proud to have the help of Dr. Freeman, along with our veterinary technicians and staff to help us achieve this goal.
