Adobe Animal Hospital is a part of the SAGE network and we have been proudly serving our community since 1964. Adobe is a special place for many Bay Area pet owners – we run two hospitals in Los Altos and Los Gatos that offer top quality medical and surgical care for small animals and exotic species. Our practice offers wellness visits as well urgent care and emergency. Our Los Altos location, which won a merit award for hospital design, has 18 exam rooms, 2 ultrasound rooms, 3 surgical suites, a 3-station dental suite, and a large well-equipped 24/7 ICU Department.
Our hospitals have an Open Hospital policy which allows pet parents to move through the hospital with their pets. This is a unique experience that helps our patients and clients feel more comfortable and supported, and it enriches the practice of our incredible clinical teams. Support and encouragement – as well as mentorship and collaboration – are the cornerstones at Adobe.
