Location & Areas We Serve
History
Governors Avenue Animal Hospital (GAAH) began seeing animals in the 1950's. The founder of the hospital was Dr. Harold Mersky. Dr. Mersky ran the hospital as a country mixed animal practice. Stories abound of him seeing all types of farm animals when Dover was more of an agrarian town. Dr. Mersky retired in 1986 when Dr. Jan Sosnowski purchased the hospital. Dr. Sosnowski renovated the hospital to a larger floor plan and business design. The hospital is currently comprised of 2 divisions. Governor's Avenue Animal Hospital cares for our small animal friends, while Delmarva Equine Clinic caters to the local horse population. Dr. Foor became a partner in 2004. Dr. Egli became a partner in 2008. The practice has continued its growth through the years and has finished the 2012 major renovation.
