After graduating with her DVM in 2017, she practiced near Boston, Massachusetts for several years before moving to Pennsylvania in 2020. Dr. Heiken has strong interests in preventative medicine, pain management and client education and has a passion for sharing her knowledge of animals with her clients so that they are truly involved in their pets\u2019 care plans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size\">Outside of work, Dr. Heiken enjoys fishing and golfing, though her biggest hobby is training and competing in dog agility with her dogs; she has competed in events such as the AKC Agility National Championship, the Westminster Masters Agility Championship, and the AKC Agility Invitational.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She and her husband, Paul, share their home with four dogs (Valkyrie, Fish, Zu &amp; Pip) and two cats (Isaac &amp;

We are open to full time, part time or relief based services at this time. Please reach out if you are a licensed veterinarian interested in a new position at our fantastic office!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"faq\">Frequently Asked Questions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>HOW DO I SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT?<br><\/strong>Please call the office during business hours at 215-256-6001. You can also send us an email at hello@vikingveterinary.com or use the Patient Portal (see the top right of this page for a link).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>HOW DO I KNOW IF I NEED AN APPOINTMENT?<br><\/strong>In general, if you are concerned enough to ask, we are concerned enough that we recommend you bring your pet in for an assessment. Please give us a call!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>YOU\u2019RE NOT OPEN AND I HAVE AN EMERGENCY! WHO DO I CALL?<br><\/strong>Oh no! Please call Metropolitan Veterinary Associates in Norristown, PA at (610) 666-1050 or PASE (Philadelphia Animal Specialty &amp; Emergency) in Philadelphia, PA at (267) 727 3738.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>WHAT VACCINES DO YOU RECOMMEND FOR DOGS?<br><\/strong>We can discuss our recommendations in detail during an appointment, but we recommend that most dogs be vaccinated for rabies, DHPP (distemper, hepatitis, parvovirus and parainfluenza), Bordetella (kennel cough), and leptospirosis. Some dogs should also consider the Lyme disease and canine influenza (CIV) vaccines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>WHAT VACCINES DO YOU RECOMMEND FOR CATS?<br><\/strong>We can discuss our recommendations in detail during an appointment, but we recommend that most cats be vaccinated with rabies and FVRCP (feline viral rhinotracheaitis, calicivirus and panleukopenia) vaccines. Cats who go outdoors should be vaccinated against feline leukemia virus as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>WHAT IF MY PET IS NOT A DOG OR CAT?<br><\/strong>We are able to assess and treat some exotic species depending on your concern. Dr. Heiken is experienced with and interested in the care of exotic species, but she is not an exotics specialist and pets will be referred to an appropriate specialist if necessary. We do not provide veterinary care for birds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>WHAT ABOUT ONLINE PHARMACIES?<\/strong><br>Because we cannot verify that medications provided by many online retailers are stored or shipped according to manufacturers\u2019 guidelines and due to concerns over repeated mistakes made by these pharmacies, we do not offer our approval for their orders directly. We will provide written prescriptions for use at any pharmacy of your choosing, but orders through our partner pharmacy at MyVetStoreOnline or the medications provided by our in-clinic pharmacy are the only ones we can responsibly approve directly. This policy also allows our staff to dedicate their time to providing high quality care for our patients instead of spending significant time verifying and approving requests from multiple online sources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Operating Hours<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Monday, Tuesday, Thursday<br><\/strong>9:00 AM &#8211; 6:00 PM<br><br><strong>Wednesday, Friday<br><\/strong>9:00 AM &#8211; 3:00 PM<br><br><strong>Saturday &amp; Sunday<br>Closed<br><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"contact\">Contact Us<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Email<br><\/strong>hello@vikingveterinary.com<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Phone<\/strong><br>(215) 256-6001<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Address<\/strong><br>840 Harleysville Pike<br>Suite 1<br>Harleysville, PA 19438<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/dir\/\/840+Harleysville+Pike,+Harleysville,+PA+19438\/@40.2929912,-75.4119885,13z\/data=!4m8!4m7!1m0!1m5!1m1!1s0x89c69f1a1b37e063:0xed8632135e0313b5!2m2!1d-75.3769693!2d40.2929965\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Get Directions<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/petportal.vet\/vikingvet\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Book an Appointment Online<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Connect With Us<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Follow us on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/vikingvetservices\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Facebook<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Follow us on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/vikingvetservices\/?hl=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Instagram<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Legal Stuff<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/vikingveterinary.com\/?page_id=3\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"3\">Privacy Policy<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/vikingveterinary.com\/?page_id=60\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"60\">Terms and Conditions of Use<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; April Specials:Free Keyscreen Fecal Screening for GI Parasites with Accuplex Heartworm\/Tick Borne Illness Test!
