Services
Vaccinations
Our vaccination program protects pets against common infectious diseases through core and elective immunizations tailored to each animal's lifestyle and risk factors. We provide rabies, distemper, and bordetella vaccines for dogs, along with feline leukemia and FVRCP vaccines for cats. Our veterinarians recommend age-appropriate vaccination schedules based on species, breed, and environmental exposure.
Dentistry
We offer comprehensive dental care including cleanings, extractions, and periodontal treatment using modern anesthetic monitoring. Our COHAT procedures address plaque buildup, gum disease, and dental infections while protecting vital organs from bacterial spread. Post-operative care includes pain management and home care recommendations to maintain oral health.
Emergency Care
During business hours, our team provides immediate triage and treatment for critical conditions like trauma, poisoning, and breathing difficulties. We stabilize patients with IV fluids, oxygen therapy, and emergency medications while coordinating diagnostics. For after-hours emergencies, we partner with regional specialty hospitals for continuous care referral.
Senior Pet Care
Our senior wellness program addresses age-related conditions through biannual exams, joint supplements, and customized nutrition plans. We monitor for early signs of arthritis, kidney disease, and cognitive dysfunction using bloodwork and physical assessments. Treatment plans focus on maintaining mobility and quality of life for aging pets.
Diagnostic Imaging
We utilize digital radiography and ultrasound for accurate internal organ, bone, and soft tissue evaluation. These tools help diagnose fractures, tumors, heart conditions, and gastrointestinal obstructions. Our in-house lab complements imaging with rapid blood and urine analysis to expedite treatment decisions for sick patients.
