Integrative Medicine
Our integrative medicine combines Western diagnostics with traditional Chinese veterinary practices, including acupuncture and herbal treatments. This approach addresses chronic conditions and pain management through customized treatment plans. By merging evidence-based diagnostics with alternative therapies, we provide comprehensive solutions that improve animal mobility and overall wellness while minimizing reliance on conventional medications.
Large Animal Services
We offer comprehensive large animal services including herd health management, reproductive exams, and mobile farm visits. Our portable hydraulic chute enables efficient cattle handling while our equine expertise covers lameness assessments and performance evaluations. With extensive experience in both routine and emergency large animal care, we serve farms across eastern South Dakota through scheduled visits and urgent response capabilities.
Pet Dental Care
Our dental services include comprehensive oral exams, professional cleanings under anesthesia, and extractions when necessary. We utilize digital radiography to detect hidden dental issues and maintain detailed dental charts for ongoing care. Through both in-clinic procedures and home care guidance, we help prevent periodontal disease while improving pets' overall health and longevity through proper oral hygiene.
Diagnostic Services
We employ advanced diagnostic tools including digital radiography, ultrasound, and comprehensive blood testing to accurately assess animal health. Our in-house laboratory enables rapid results for critical cases while specialized external testing ensures precise diagnoses. These technologies support effective treatment planning for both acute emergencies and chronic conditions through evidence-based veterinary medicine.
Puppy and Kitten Care
Our early care programs include vaccination schedules, deworming protocols, and developmental assessments for young animals. We provide tailored nutrition guidance and behavioral training advice to establish healthy habits. Through specialized wellness packages, we monitor growth milestones and implement preventive care strategies that set the foundation for lifelong health in both dogs and cats during their crucial first year.
