Vaccinations
Vegreville Veterinary Clinic follows AAHA and AAFP guidelines to provide essential vaccinations for dogs and cats. Regular immunizations prevent diseases like rabies, distemper, and parvovirus, ensuring pets remain healthy. Our team educates clients on vaccine schedules tailored to their pet's age, lifestyle, and risk factors.
Dental Care
We offer comprehensive dental services including exams, cleanings, x-rays, and extractions. Preventative care addresses periodontal disease, which affects 80% of dogs over three. Treatments like tartar removal and dental prophylaxis improve oral health, preventing systemic issues linked to heart and organ damage.
Lab Testing
In-house IDEXX Lab Station enables blood analysis, urinalysis, and fecal floats for rapid diagnosis. We test for electrolytes, coagulation, and systemic diseases like diabetes or kidney failure. External samples sent to IDEXX ensure thorough evaluation, supporting accurate treatment plans for complex cases.
Digital Radiology
Digital x-rays assist in diagnosing orthopedic issues, trauma, and internal conditions. This technology provides immediate imaging for fractures, hip dysplasia, and foreign bodies. Quick results allow timely interventions, improving outcomes for emergencies like internal bleeding or pregnancy complications.
Emergency Services
The clinic addresses urgent needs like ripped stitches or acute injuries outside regular hours. A recent example involved repairing a dental stitch on a Sunday night. Clients trust our team to handle critical situations promptly, ensuring pets receive life-saving care when time-sensitive.
