Services
Pet Radiology
Digital radiology provides high-quality imaging for diagnosing injuries and illnesses in pets. This technology reduces radiation exposure and allows immediate image sharing with specialists. Our clinic uses digital x-rays to examine bones, organs, and teeth, ensuring accurate diagnoses and efficient treatment planning for both emergency and routine cases.
Pet Dental Care
Comprehensive dental services prevent and treat oral diseases in pets. We offer teeth cleaning, digital dental radiology, and surgical treatments for tooth fractures or gum disease. Regular dental care helps avoid systemic health issues linked to poor oral hygiene. Our team educates owners on home care to maintain long-term dental wellness for cats and dogs.
Pet Microchipping
Microchipping offers permanent identification for lost pets. A rice-sized chip implanted between the shoulder blades contains a unique ID linked to owner contact details. Most shelters and clinics use universal scanners to retrieve this information. We recommend microchipping alongside traditional collars to maximize recovery chances if a pet becomes separated from its owner.
Senior Pet Care
Senior pets require specialized monitoring for age-related conditions like arthritis, kidney disease, and diabetes. Our preventive care includes bi-annual exams, bloodwork, and tailored treatment plans. Early detection of mobility issues or cognitive decline allows interventions to improve quality of life. We guide owners through dietary adjustments and pain management strategies for elderly dogs and cats.
Orthopedic Pet Surgery
Orthopedic surgery treats fractures, joint issues, and congenital defects in pets. Procedures include bone plating, ligament repairs, and joint replacements. Post-operative care involves restricted activity and possible rehabilitation therapy. Our clinic handles complex cases like cranial cruciate ligament tears and patellar luxation, using advanced techniques to restore mobility and reduce long-term complications.
