For over 40 years, Nonantum Veterinary Clinic has been a trusted part of the community, caring for pets and the people who love them with heartfelt compassion, honest guidance, and a deep sense of integrity. From Chester County to northern Delaware and nearby Maryland, families know they can count on us to treat every pet like one of our own.
Lifelong health starts with routine care. Our personalized wellness visits help us get to know your pet inside and out, from nose to tail. With tailored vaccinations, parasite prevention, nutritional counseling, and early detection screenings, we keep your dog or cat feeling their best at every age and stage.
We offer a wide range of soft tissue and orthopedic procedures right here in our clinic, conducted with skill, compassion, and meticulous attention to safety. While our own veterinarians are highly skilled, we also have a traveling surgeon who performs TPLOs, MPLs, and fracture repairs.
We believe healing works best when we treat the whole pet. Our integrative therapy services, including chiropractic care, acupuncture, and physical rehabilitation, offer gentle, noninvasive support for pets living with pain, recovering from injury, or simply needing a little extra help as they age.
Dr. Phelan is a Pennsylvania native and grew up in Flourtown Montgomery Co. He received his B.A. from the University of Colorado and his Veterinary degree from Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine. He completed his Clinical training at Auburn University in Alabama. Dr. Phelan now resides here in Landenberg and loves exploring the area with his wife and son as well as fishing the local creeks. He currently has a crazy K9 rescue named Rex and a grouchy calico cat named Stella.
Dr. Carrie Woodcock Graduated from the University of Illinois in 1996 and moved to Pennsylvania in 2001. She loves working with patients and clients and has a soft spot for anxious patients.
Dr. Woodcock completed her certification in Canine Rehabilitation and loves putting her training in pain management and mobility to work on patients who are struggling whether they are puppies, recovery from injury or surgery, or trying to age gracefully. Dr. Woodcock welcomes challenging cases that make her “think outside the box.”
When not working, you will find her at home with her cats: Bubba and Bandit, dogs: Mia and Dennis, whichever adult child is willing to hang out, and her husband who is also a Veterinarian. In her spare time, or while commuting, Dr. Woodcock enjoys listening to audiobooks and enjoying the sunshine.
Dr. Jordan Stephenson earned her Veterinary Medical Doctor (VMD) degree from the University of Pennsylvania and brings more than 25 years of veterinary experience to the team, including 19 years in general practice, five years in emergency medicine, and one year in a feline-only practice.
Her passion for veterinary medicine began at an early age. As a child, she was often found reading to the family cat, and her lifelong love of animals, combined with a fascination for science, made becoming a veterinarian a natural career choice.
Dr. Stephenson has a special interest in endocrinology, particularly helping diabetic cats achieve successful long-term management. She is passionate about partnering with pet owners to provide individualized care and believes the best outcomes come from doing what’s right for both the animal and the people who love them.
Outside of the hospital, Dr. Stephenson is an avid reader and enjoys tackling the New York Times Sunday Crossword—in pen. She shares her home with her two cats, Fatty Arbuckle and Brash.
We primarily care for dogs and cats, but if you have an exotic pet, give us a call and we’ll point you in the right direction.
We’re based in Landenberg, PA and happily care for pets from Kennett Square, West Grove, Oxford, Avondale, Hockessin, Newark, Wilmington, Elkton, and beyond.
Yes! We provide integrative care options like chiropractic adjustments, acupuncture, and canine rehabilitation to support pain relief, mobility, and overall well-being.
We’re excited to welcome Dr. Christopher Phelan as our new Medical Director. Appointments with Dr. Phelan are now available!
