Oak Creek Veterinary Care: Opens in Oak Creek, Wis.

State-of-the-art clinic offers preventive and emergency care to canines and felines

OAK CREEK, WISCONSIN — On Monday, Feb. 2, Oak Creek Veterinary Care (OCVC) opened a new state-of-the-art veterinary clinic at 8000 S. Howell Avenue. The 5,600-square-foot facility was designed to accommodate the growing need for quality animal care in Southeastern Wisconsin with top-of-the-line equipment and services.

“We thrive to mix the traditional core values of a family medical practice with the modern advances of veterinary medicine,” said Julio A. Toro, DVM. “We are unique in that we can also provide emergency care and surgical procedures during normal business hours. Our team is highly trained on the latest veterinary software. That combined with the benefits of our incredible facility and newest equipment makes for a very pleasant experience for pet owners. As a fluent speaker of Spanish myself, our clinic also has the ability to cater to the Hispanic population.”

OCVC is located near the busy intersection of Howell Avenue and Drexel Avenue, directly across the street from the development of the new 85-acre Drexel Town Square, which brings a new City Hall and public library, apartments, and well-known brands Meijer, Sheraton, Water Street Brewery, and Panda Express, to name just a few. Animal lovers from outside of Oak Creek can easily access the location from the new I-94 Drexel Avenue Interchange.

“We’re thrilled to be a part of all of the new developments in Oak Creek,” said Lisa Work, hospital director.” “As the newest facility within arm’s reach of Drexel Town Square, we’re excited to watch the area grow and we’re excited for the traffic it will draw. Our clients will benefit from the one-stop-shop benefits the area will provide. They can get their pets the care they need, their shopping and banking done, and a bite to eat all within walking distance.”

Dr. Julio Toro and Ms. Lisa Work opened the clinic together after years of experience in the veterinary industry. The two partners are excited about their multicultural business and are looking forward to immersing themselves in the city of Oak Creek.
