DCC Animal Hospital — Dogs, Cats & Companions — is one of the most comprehensively equipped veterinary hospitals in Gurugram, Haryana, and a genuine first in the Indian pet care landscape: it was the first veterinary hospital in India backed by foreign investment, opened in March 2021 by Japanese pet healthcare company A'alda. The Gurugram flagship sits on Jagdamba Farm, Carterpuri Marg, Sector 23A, giving it a spacious campus feel rather than the cramped-clinic experience pet parents in Delhi NCR are often used to. Beyond veterinary consultations, the hospital offers grooming and boarding under one roof — which matters when your dog needs post-surgical boarding or a clean-up after a procedure.

🐾 When we visited with Apple, Captain, and Kimchi

We brought all three dogs — Apple (Golden Retriever), Captain (Indie), and Kimchi (Black Retriever) — to DCC Animal Hospital Gurugram. The hospital is unlike any vet clinic we've walked into in the NCR: the premises feel purposefully built rather than retrofitted, and the team handled a multi-dog visit without any visible stress. The Jagdamba Farm address means there's actual space to manage multiple animals — useful when you're walking in with a large retriever and an excitable indie at the same time. Specific visit notes are being added — check back for the full experience report.

The Hospital: What Makes DCC Different

DCC was built entirely from scratch on its Gurugram site — no repurposed space, no converted residential property. The hospital was designed with input from A'alda's Japanese veterinary operations, which has a strong track record in small animal medicine. The result is a facility with state-of-the-art diagnostic and surgical infrastructure that is genuinely uncommon in Gurugram. The team is led by Dr. Vinod Sharma, Director and Head Veterinarian, alongside senior veterinarians Dr. Jharna Koul and Dr. Priyanka Tewari — with at least one further doctor visible on the clinic's website carousel. Dr. Sharma was instrumental in establishing DCC's presence in India, working closely with A'alda from site selection through to operations.

The services at the Gurugram location span the full spectrum of small animal care: routine checkups, vaccinations, diagnostics, dental care, surgeries, grooming, and boarding. Emergency care is also listed as a service. For pet parents travelling into or through Gurugram, having a hospital that combines boarding with medical care in one location is genuinely useful — especially if your dog has an ongoing health condition that warrants monitoring during a stay.

Boarding and Grooming: What to Know

The boarding facility at the Gurugram campus has been described by reviewers as clean, hygienic, and well-maintained. One Google reviewer noted that regular updates from the team gave them complete peace of mind while their dog was boarded — a detail that matters more than most amenities when you're leaving your animal somewhere overnight. The boarding is part of the main hospital complex, not a separate facility, which means your pet has immediate access to veterinary attention if needed during their stay.

Grooming is available at the same location. Specific grooming service details — including pricing, appointment booking requirements, and breed-specific options — are best confirmed directly with the hospital. Appointments can be booked through dccpets.in or by calling the Gurugram number.

One reviewer, Kanchana Dewan, noted that she had been visiting DCC for nearly three years across different life stages with her dogs — first with a rescue dog, then with a new puppy for vaccinations and deworming. That kind of longitudinal trust from pet parents is a meaningful signal about consistency of care.

Pet Policy and What to Bring

Dogs should arrive on a leash; smaller animals should be in a secure carrier. The hospital asks that vaccination records be brought to all visits — consultations, grooming, boarding, and surgical appointments. If your pet is showing signs of illness or a potentially contagious condition, disclose this to staff at arrival so they can manage the environment for all animals on the premises. This is standard protocol for a multi-species hospital and worth taking seriously. Specific vaccination requirements for boarding (as opposed to a routine consultation) should be confirmed when you book, as requirements may differ by service type. The hospital notes that additional guidelines apply for boarding, grooming, surgery, and emergency care — call ahead if you're planning a first visit for any of these.

Digital Systems and Record-Keeping

DCC has implemented a Hospital Management System (HMS) that digitally manages medical records, prescriptions, and inventory — a significant operational step forward compared to the paper-based record-keeping that remains common across India. For pet parents, this means electronic medical records, online appointment booking, preliminary medical interview capability, and digital payment options are all available through the hospital's web platform at dccpets.in. If you've been to a vet where the previous prescription lives in a folder you have to carry everywhere, this is a noticeable improvement.
