CLIFTON PARK, N.Y., Jan. 8, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Cornerstone Veterinary Hospital of Clifton Park joined the ranks of veterinary practices accredited by the American Animal Hospital Association (AAHA). This exceptional achievement demonstrates the highest level of veterinary excellence with the practice's protocols, equipment, facility, and client service (among many other areas) undergoing and passing rigorous review by AAHA experts. Unlike human hospitals, not all animal hospitals are required to become accredited. A veterinary practice must consciously choose to pursue accreditation, which requires full commitment from its veterinarians and staff members.

"Less than 15% of all veterinary hospitals in North America are able to achieve the standard of excellence needed to obtain AAHA accreditation. I am extremely proud of our entire team for going above and beyond every day to provide the highest level of care to both our patients and our clients," explained Dr. Lisa Knott, who owns Cornerstone Veterinary Hospital of Clifton Park along with her husband, Dr. Alan Knott. "The trust placed in us by our clients to care for their special family members is not something we take lightly. We will continue to strive to provide the utmost level of care and compassion for all members of our Cornerstone Veterinary Family."

Pet parents can trust that an AAHA-accredited hospital follows the AAHA Standards of Accreditation, which are continuously reviewed and updated by leaders in the veterinary profession to reflect changing best practices at the very cutting edge of veterinary medicine. AAHA-accredited hospitals are recognized as being among the finest in the industry, because they comply with the standards required to obtain AAHA endorsement. This shows that Cornerstone Veterinary Hospital of Clifton Park goes above and beyond state regulations to deliver excellence in all areas of veterinary medicine.

"We're very excited (and proud) to welcome Cornerstone Veterinary Hospital of Clifton Park into our family of AAHA-accredited practices," said Alyson Forman, Practice Consultant for the American Animal Hospital Association. "Their veterinarians, support team, and facilities truly exemplify the high standards of veterinary excellence required to achieve accreditation."
