About Us
Welcome to Mission Pet Hospital!
Throughout my career, my priority has been to practice medicine in a way that pushes the boundaries of veterinary knowledge.
For a general practitioner, the standard approach is to refer deeper problems
to specialists. Instead, I choose to specialize in a variety of areas,
uniquely equipping Mission Pet to treat an expanded number of patients.
I do this because I believe that your pet's health improves when we coordinate
all treatment under one roof.
Many pets face issues which span a range of medical specialties. Our coordinated approach means that we not only understand how all of the issues within one patient interact, but we are equipped to treat them all in house. It has taken many years to build this level of excellence, and I am extremely proud of our unique ability to coordinate medicine here at Mission Pet.
We also owe much of our success to the superior quality of our Registered Veterinary Technician support staff. An astounding 13 RVTs call Mission Pet home -- an extraordinarily high number for an 8 doctor practice. Attaining the RVT certification signifies a high level of commitment to formal education and training, which translates to the unparalleled diagnostic and therapeutic care Mission Pet proudly provides for our community.
As pioneers of our integrated approach, we're extremely proud of the standards to which we hold ourselves, because we know that means better health for your pets.
We are honored that you have chosen us to take care of your furry family members.
Warmly,
Dr. Curtis Press, DVM

At MPH we work as a team in the service of constantly improving outcomes for our patients, and growing as human beings and healthcare practitioners.
We pride ourselves on the well established workplace climate of positivity, empathy, and support, especially in the face of adversity. For us, leadership means that we respond to the most difficult circumstances we face with grace, selflessness, and teamwork — in the service of continuing to improve the lives of our patients —and their owners!
We are a general practice that excels in many of the more common advanced areas of veterinary medicine, in addition to training and collaborating with specialists.
MPH is set up to handle a variety of surgical procedures ranging from advanced emergency surgery to orthopedic surgery. This also includes advanced imaging diagnostics- especially ultrasound, advanced medical management with internal medicine, chemotherapy and dental surgery.
As a general practice, we are thrilled to provide a level of specialization that offers such a unique integrated and coordinated approach.
