Our History

The staff at Circle Veterinary Clinic strives to help our clients take the best care of their pets. We are the only hospital in Wilmington accredited by AAHA, and our compassionate, skilled veterinarians and support team make comprehensive and preventative care their priority. We have a long record of outstanding service, as our hospital traces its history from 1925 as the oldest continuously operating small animal veterinary practice in Delaware. Dr. Harvey Fell established Circle Veterinary Clinic and was succeeded in 1956 by long-time Wilmington veterinarian Dr. John L. Wilkins. Circle Veterinary Clinic moved to its present location in 2009 and is still independently owned by Dr. David Wilkins.
