Services
Routine Wellness
Our preventive care program includes comprehensive physical examinations, heart and lung evaluations, and early disease detection. We recommend annual wellness checks for adult pets and bi-annual visits for seniors. These appointments allow us to monitor health trends, administer necessary vaccinations, and provide personalized nutrition and behavior advice. Our preventive approach helps identify potential issues before they become serious health concerns.
Dental Care
We offer complete dental services including professional cleanings, x-rays, extractions, and periodontal treatment. Our dental suite features modern equipment for safe anesthesia and thorough oral examinations. We educate pet owners about home care techniques and provide specialized dental diets. Regular dental maintenance prevents painful infections and systemic health complications associated with poor oral hygiene.
Vaccinations
Our vaccination program protects pets against common infectious diseases based on individual risk factors. We follow AAHA guidelines to determine core and lifestyle-based vaccine protocols. Services include rabies, distemper, and feline leukemia vaccinations, with proper documentation for travel and boarding requirements. We also provide parasite prevention products for fleas, ticks, and heartworm.
Microchipping
We implant ISO-standard microchips for permanent pet identification. The quick, minimally-invasive procedure offers reliable identification that cannot be lost like collars. Our staff registers chips in national databases and provides owner update assistance. We also scan found animals to help reunite lost pets with their families using this permanent identification method.
Emergency Services
We provide immediate veterinary attention for critical conditions during operating hours. For after-hours emergencies, we partner with Campus Estates Animal Hospital and SmartVet Urgent Care. Our team handles trauma, poisoning, breathing difficulties, and other life-threatening situations. We maintain diagnostic equipment and emergency medications to stabilize patients before specialist referral when needed.
