Pet Exams
Annual and semi-annual exams help detect health issues early through nose-to-tail physicals, dental assessments, and age-appropriate bloodwork. Our veterinarians tailor each exam to your pet's unique needs, including weight management and behavioral counseling. Regular checkups ensure timely interventions for conditions like parasites or chronic diseases.
Pet Vaccinations
Customized vaccination plans protect pets from preventable diseases using core and lifestyle-specific vaccines. We administer rabies, distemper, and leukemia vaccines while considering factors like outdoor exposure and social activity. Our protocols balance protection with minimizing overvaccination through personalized booster schedules.
Pet Teeth Cleaning
Professional cleanings under anesthesia remove plaque and tartar above and below the gumline using ultrasonic tools. Digital X-rays assess root health, while fluoride treatments strengthen enamel. We emphasize home care education to prevent periodontal disease that impacts systemic health.
Pet Surgery
Spays, neuters, and soft tissue surgeries follow AAHA-accredited safety protocols including pre-anesthetic bloodwork and pain management. Our team performs mass removals, bladder surgeries, and CCL repairs with continuous technician monitoring. Post-operative care focuses on comfort and recovery.
Pet Allergy Management
We diagnose and treat environmental and food allergies through cytology tests, bloodwork, and elimination diets. Treatment options include Cytopoint injections, Apoquel medication, and medicated shampoos. Our approach reduces itching and secondary infections while addressing underlying immune responses.
