Our mission here at Sugar Creek Animal Hospital is to provide your pet with the best possible care. From endoscopy to microchipping, we want to help ensure that your pets and livestock are as happy, productive and healthy as can be. Drs. Doug Parker and Tammy Jones are both highly skilled in diagnosis and are knowledgeable about the most advanced and best treatment methods available for your pet.

Sugar Creek Animal Hospital was founded in 1992 here in Bentonville, and we have since then built our reputation as the finest veterinary clinic in the area. We are affiliated with both the AVMA, (American Veterinary Medical Association) and the state-level AVMA (Arkansas Veterinary Medical Association). We are also involved with the community by working closely with the Rogers Humane Society, Bella Vista Animal Shelter and the Bentonville Pound to assist them with the care of the animals. We also provide care and counseling to the canine police officers that work with the Gentry Police, the Bentonville Police and the Bella Vista Sheriffs Department.

We know how much you care about your pet, because we care about them too. That is why we here at Sugar Creek Animal Hospital have always done our best to keep your pet healthy. We hope to see you soon.
