Surgical Procedures
Southside Veterinary Clinic provides elective and emergency surgical services for small animals. Our capabilities include spay/neuter procedures, dental surgeries, lump removals, and specialized orthopedic operations for fractures and ligament injuries. All procedures use strict aseptic techniques with tailored anesthesia and pain management. Patients receive continuous monitoring by dedicated technologists and electronic devices during surgery, with post-operative care including intravenous fluids and temperature management to ensure optimal recovery.
Diagnostic Imaging
Our clinic features state-of-the-art diagnostic imaging equipment including digital radiography, dental X-rays, and ultrasound machines. These tools enable accurate diagnosis of medical conditions through detailed internal imaging. We also have access to endoscopic exams at our partner facility and can send imaging studies to specialists for telemedicine consultations, ensuring comprehensive diagnostic capabilities while maintaining cost-effectiveness for pet owners.
Laboratory Services
We operate advanced IDEXX laboratory equipment for rapid blood and urine analysis, crucial for timely diagnosis and emergency treatment. For specialized testing, we utilize Calgary-based reference laboratories that typically return results within two working days. This combination of immediate in-clinic capabilities and expert external analysis allows us to provide comprehensive diagnostic services while maintaining quick turnaround times for critical cases.
Weight Loss Programs
Our structured weight management programs address pet obesity through personalized consultations, nutritional counseling, and regular progress monitoring. We teach owners to perform Body Condition Scoring at home and provide no-charge weigh-ins every two weeks. The program emphasizes portion control education, appropriate diet selection, and gradual exercise increases to safely achieve ideal weight targets while preventing obesity-related health complications like diabetes and arthritis.
