The fourth location in the VDS network provides
advanced oral care for pets by board-certified veterinary
specialists in dentistry and anesthesia
Veterinary Dentistry Specialists® (VDS), a specialty
practice for pets in need of advanced oral care, has opened a new
location at 240 Main Street, Madison, New Jersey. Board-certified
dentist, Ellen Scherer, DVM, DAVDC, is co-owner and medical
director of the practice.
VDS is the only dentistry practice in the nation, where
board-certified veterinary specialists in dentistry and
anesthesiology work together with each patient to ensure optimal
care. This unique combination of expertise, along with five-star
service, provides the safest, most comfortable, and best possible
outcome for each patient.
While oral health diseases are prevalent in most pets, there are
only approximately 230 active board-certified veterinary dentists
and 220 board-certified veterinary anesthesiologists in the United
States.
Dr. Scherer earned her veterinary degree from The Ohio State
University College of Veterinary Medicine. She completed a rotating
internship at Fifth Avenue Veterinary Specialists in New York City,
and a three-year dentistry residency at the University of Wisconsin
School of Veterinary Medicine, subsequently earning status as a
Diplomate of the American Veterinary Dental College. Prior to
joining VDS Madison, she practiced for 5 ½ years at a
multi-specialty hospital in northern New Jersey.
“One of the best ways to take care of your pet’s oral health is
through routine home care, along with regular professional
examinations and cleanings by your primary care veterinarian.
However, there may come a time when your veterinarian recommends
more advanced treatment. That’s where we come in,” said Dr.
Scherer. “I am proud to say that together with my talented team,
pet owners throughout the region now have direct access to
world-class, advanced oral care for their pets.”

- Bad breath
