Welcome to Riordan Pet Hospital

Riordan Pet Hospital has been the preferred veterinary hospital for Des Moines family pet owners since it was founded in 1951 by Dr. Robert Riordan. The Riordan Pet Hospital is well known and respected throughout central Iowa as a state of the art veterinary medical facility designed specifically for dogs and cats.

As a family-owned veterinary practice, we understand and agree that dogs and cats are an essential part of your family and deserve the highest quality medical care. That is why our veterinary clinics in Des Moines and Ankeny have invested in the latest technology available for veterinary care, including advanced laboratory testing for blood anaylsis, radiological / x-ray scanners and a full pharmacy for all of your pet's health care needs.

Brothers and third-generation Doctors of Veterinary Medicine, Dr. Chuck Riordan, Dr. Dennis Riordan, and Dr. Terry Riordan continue the "family tradition" as Des Moines area veterinarians. Dr. Chuck Riordan operates Riordan Pet Hospital and Veterinary Clinic located at 4418 Douglas Avenue in the Beaverdale neighborhood of Des Moines and his brother, Dr. Dennis Riordan & Dr. Terry Riordan, operate Ankeny Veterinary Clinic at 301 NW 18th Street in Ankeny.

We welcome you to visit our clinics and meet our experienced veterinary team of Doctors and Veterinary Technicians. We lookforward to meeting you and your pet family members!
