Services
Wellness Visits
Our comprehensive wellness exams include physical evaluations, vaccination planning, parasite screening, and blood testing. These visits help establish baseline health metrics and identify potential issues early. Our veterinarians create customized preventative care plans considering each pet's age, breed, and lifestyle factors.
Surgical Procedures
We perform spaying/neutering, soft tissue surgeries, and biopsies with advanced anesthetic monitoring. Pre-surgical bloodwork ensures patient safety while IV fluids maintain stability during procedures. Our team provides detailed post-operative care instructions and pain management plans tailored to each patient's recovery needs.
Dental Prophylaxis
Our dental services combine digital radiography with professional scaling and polishing to address oral health comprehensively. Veterinarians assess tooth extractions based on fractures, decay, or gum disease severity. We apply Oravet sealant to prevent plaque buildup and offer home care recommendations for maintaining oral hygiene between visits.
Digital Radiography
This non-invasive diagnostic tool allows internal organ visualization through high-resolution digital imaging. Our trained staff captures clear radiographs to detect abnormalities in real-time, enabling faster diagnosis of conditions affecting the heart, lungs, and skeletal system while minimizing patient discomfort during the procedure.
Microchipping
We implant microchips subcutaneously for permanent pet identification. The quick procedure uses specialized needles to place registration chips that shelters and clinics can scan. Post-implantation, we guide owners through database registration processes to ensure successful reunification if pets become lost, complementing traditional collar identification methods.
