Services
Laboratory Screenings
Our in-house laboratory provides comprehensive diagnostic testing including complete blood counts, chemistry panels, urinalysis, and parasite screening. These tests enable early disease detection and accurate diagnosis for dogs, cats, and small pets. Our screening protocols are tailored to each patient's age and health status.
Ultrasound Screenings
We offer advanced ultrasound imaging for internal organ evaluation. This non-invasive technology uses sound waves to detect abnormalities in real-time. Our veterinarians interpret images immediately for prompt diagnosis and treatment planning.
Laser Therapy
Class IV laser therapy accelerates healing through photobiomodulation. This treatment reduces inflammation, manages chronic pain, and supports post-surgical recovery. Most sessions last 1-10 minutes with no sedation required for patient comfort.
Pharmacy Services
Our full-service pharmacy stocks prescription medications, flea/tick preventatives, and therapeutic diets. We compound medications into palatable liquids when needed. Online pharmacy options provide 24/7 access to essential pet health products with professional guidance.
Dentistry
We provide comprehensive dental services including cleanings, extractions, and oral surgery. Digital dental X-rays ensure complete assessment of tooth and gum health. Preventive care focuses on maintaining oral hygiene to prevent systemic health issues.
