Ralph Sellman II, DVM - Blue Cross Veterinary Hospital
HistoryBlue Cross Veterinary Hospital proudly serves the Long Beach area as the oldest veterinary hospital in operation. Over the years we've been in practice, we've seen many faces and worked with generations of pet owners and their pets. Our clients have become like family to us, and their pets are as special to us as if they were our very own. Our hospital is housed in a restored art-deco building with a unique outdoor courtyard located right in the middle of the facility! We are made complete with a team of highly qualified, experienced and compassionate veterinary professionals who are passionate about animal health care and are dedicated to providing both patients and their owners with a positive experience with each interaction. Between our three doctors, we have over 60 years of experience, and the quality of our care demonstrates this. We promise - you won't find more personalized, quality care anywhere else. Come by and see us any time. We can't wait to meet you!SpecialtiesAt Blue Cross in Long Beach, we are passionate about making a difference in the lives of animals, and being a part of their lives for the long haul. Nothing brings us more joy than seeing your puppy or kitten grow into a healthy adult dog or cat, and help support them as they navigate through their senior years. When it's time to cross over the Rainbow Bridge, we'll be right by your side to lend our support and to share in your sorrow. While our services focus primarily on wellness care and preventative medicine, because we believe this will provide your pet with the foundation for a long, healthy life, we are also prepared to assist with all of your pet's medical, dental, diagnostic and surgical care needs along the way. From routine check ups & vaccinations to allergy testing to surgery and critical care, we've got everything your pet needs to stay happy and healthy. Along with our traditional veterinary medical services, we also offer innovative alternative treatment options, such as laser therapy. To round out our suite of services, we offer light grooming services to keep your pet looking and feeling their very best, and full service boarding to give you peace of mind for the next time you have to leave town without your pet. We aim to become your one-stop-shop for all of your pet care needs.
