MOHEGAN LAKE VETERINARY HISTORY

Mohegan Lake Veterinary Hospital has been providing first-rate veterinary care for over 30 years.  It was established in 1987 by Dr. Jeffrey Stuppler, who quickly built a reputation for excellent medicine and compassionate care. Dr. Monica Belvedere took over the practice in 2018.  Dr. Belvedere has significantly strengthened Mohegan Lake Veterinary Hospital's capabilities, installing a digital x-ray, new surgical monitors, and a new ultrasound machine.  We also recently completed a renovation of our exam rooms, reception area, and in-house pharmacy.  We'd love for you to come by and say hello!
