Veterinarian Near Cedar Grove, NJ
Bad breath that will not go away, a dog that keeps licking its paws, a cat that has started hiding: these are the everyday problems Cedar Grove pet owners bring to us. Montclair Veterinary Associates is a short drive down Pompton Avenue into Montclair, on Park Street near Anderson Park, with a dedicated parking lot right next to our entrance.
Dr. Cory Waxman, a University of Pennsylvania School of Veterinary Medicine graduate, opened our locally owned practice in 2024 after treating pets across Northern New Jersey since 2011. Each appointment is scheduled for at least 30 minutes, so there is time to look closely, talk through options, and leave with a plan you understand.
Cedar Grove families use our clinic for everything from first puppy and kitten visits to dental cleanings and long-term care for chronic skin and allergy problems. You can browse our complete list of veterinary services to see what we offer under one roof.
Why Cedar Grove Pet Owners Trust Our Team
Dental Care That Goes Below the Gumline
Most dental disease hides under the gums. Our professional cleanings are done under anesthesia, so we can clean and evaluate every tooth properly, not just polish what is visible.
Relief for Itchy Pets
Scratching, ear infections, and hot spots are frustrating for pets and owners alike. We look for the underlying cause and build an allergy treatment plan that can be adjusted as the seasons and symptoms change.
Time for Every Question
With 30 minutes or more per appointment, you will not feel rushed. Dr. Waxman explains findings in plain language and makes sure you know what to watch for at home in Cedar Grove.
Locally Owned, Not Corporate
Our practice is owned and run by the veterinarian who treats your pet. That means care decisions are made in the exam room with you, not set by a corporate policy.
Veterinary Services for Cedar Grove Pets
Good care starts with prevention. A yearly wellness exam lets us check teeth, skin, weight, and heart health, and update vaccinations based on how your pet lives. When something does go wrong, our on-site lab and X-rays help us find answers quickly.
Cedar Grove pet owners often visit us for:
- Dog teeth cleaning and cat teeth cleaning under anesthesia
- Allergy and skin care, including allergy testing and treatment
- Diagnostics such as bloodwork and digital X-rays
- Surgery, including spay and neuter
- Senior pet care for aging dogs and cats
For ongoing conditions, we schedule rechecks and adjust treatment as your pet responds, so you always know the next step.
