Dr. Paul A. Chace,
long time resident of Farmington, has opened a new pet
hospital, Advanced Veterinary Care, in the West Woods corner of
Farmington, on Route 6.
A native New Englander, Dr. Chace graduated from Iowa State University College of Veterinary Medicine in 1985 and completed an Internship at the Veterinary Specialists of Connecticut, in West Hartford, to further develop his medical and surgical skills. Dr. Chace has practiced in central Connecticut for the past 19-years and most recently for CT Veterinary Clinic (CVC), one of the State’s top 24-Hour Emergency Clinics in West Hartford. Prior to CVC, Dr. Chace spent most of his career at the Old Canal Veterinary Clinic in Plainville, providing advanced medical, surgical and emergency care for dogs, cats and exotic pets. His areas of special interest include orthopedics, endoscopy, surgery and exotic pet medicine and surgery.
In addition to cats and dogs, Dr. Chace has knowledge and experience treating “exotic” pets which, by definition, includes birds, rabbits, reptiles, ferrets, guinea pigs, hamsters, gerbils and prairie dogs. Other species he has experience with include mice, rats, African hedge hogs, chinchillas, sugar gliders, primates and pot bellied pigs!
Dr. Chace’s professional memberships include The American Veterinary Medical Association, the Connecticut Veterinary Medical Association, the Hartford County Veterinary Association, the American Animal Hospital Association, the Association of Exotic Mammalian Veterinarians, the Association of Amphibian and Reptilian Veterinarians, the American Ferret Association, and the House Rabbit Society. During his career, Dr. Chace has worked with many animal rescue groups treating their foster animals including the House Rabbit Connection of Springfield Massachusetts.
Dr. Chace looks forward to bringing his advanced medical and surgical skills to his hometown of Farmington and its surrounding communities, to continue his lifelong commitment to the protection and care for our animals.
