Whether you are early in your career or an experienced veterinarian, the goal is the same: to practice good medicine, feel supported, and enjoy the people you work with.

what that looks like in practice.
About Us
The Veterinary Center of Morris County in Florham Park and East Hanover are privately owned, AAHA-accredited hospitals built on a clear philosophy:
veterinarians should be trusted and support to be veterinarians.
Dr. Edelle has created an environment where collaboration, respect, and clinical judgment are the foundation of daily practice.
One of the veterinarians on the team shared:
“Dr. Edelle is a remarkable owner. If you need something done, there is no delay. She is a patient teacher who truly listens.”
