Services
Dental Cleanings
Professional dental cleanings remove tartar buildup and treat periodontal disease under anesthesia. Our process includes ultrasonic scaling, subgingival curettage, polishing, and antibacterial treatment. Regular cleanings prevent tooth loss and systemic infections from oral bacteria entering the bloodstream.
Wellness Exams
Comprehensive physical exams assess pets' overall health, including body condition, organ systems, and skin condition. These preventive visits help detect early signs of disease and establish baseline health metrics for lifelong wellness tracking.
Spay/Neuter Procedures
Surgical sterilization procedures include pre-anesthetic bloodwork, pain management, and post-operative care instructions. These surgeries prevent unwanted litters and reduce health risks like mammary tumors and prostate disease in pets.
Diagnostic Imaging
We use digital radiography and ultrasound to visualize internal organs and bones. These non-invasive tools help diagnose conditions like fractures, tumors, and organ abnormalities, enabling accurate treatment planning.
Senior Pet Care
Specialized care for aging pets includes twice-yearly exams, mobility assessments, and chronic disease management. We address age-related changes in organ function, joint health, and cognitive function to maintain quality of life.
