The Stephen & Christine Schwarzman Animal Medical Center (AMC) recaps another record year with increased expert veterinary workforce, renewed partnerships across the U.S., and over $3.6 million donated in charitable care Plus, AMC's Most Popular Dog and Cat Names of the Year NEW YORK, April 8, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- As the world's largest veterinary teaching hospital dedicated to the advancement of veterinary medicine, Schwarzman Animal Medical Center (AMC) announces its official 2023 numbers – recapping a year of comprehensive and compassionate care as New York City's only level 1 trauma center. A highlight of stats for the year include:
"Throughout 2023, we continued to see an increased demand for emergency and specialty care for four-legged members of the family from tabbies to labs to holland lop rabbits, as well as specialized cases with exotic animals through our partnership with local zoos," said Helen Irving, RN, MBA, President & Chief Executive Officer of Animal Medical Center. "As New York City's only level 1 veterinary trauma center, we're honored to provide world-class, compassionate care to animals for over 110 years. We take particular pride in offering charitable care to animals and families who might otherwise struggle to afford it. Being able to positively impact the lives of animals in need gives deep meaning to our entire team." Dr. Ann Hohenhaus, Senior Veterinarian in Oncology and the Director of Pet Health Information at Animal Medical Center, elaborated on the impact of charitable giving. "The need for advanced veterinary care for rescue animals is enormous, especially for cats. Programs that subsidize advanced veterinary care increase access to that care. Furthermore, the care provided improves clinician morale by reducing the moral distress and workplace burnout resulting from the economic limitations of rescue organizations, which can lead to limited care or euthanasia." Most recently in January 2024, the Animal Medical Center debuted the Denise and Michael Kellen Institute for Surgical Care, which is a pivotal part of the 83,000 square-foot hospital renovation and expansion. Later in 2024, the Animal Medical Center will see the opening of the newly expanded Emergency Room, Intensive Care Unit and Medical Surgical Unit, with expected project completion in 2025. With a team of 130+ veterinarians across more than 20 specialties, the Animal Medical Center provides world-class medical care to dogs, cats, and exotic pets and is open 365 days a year and operates 24/7.
