Services
Veterinary Care
Our comprehensive veterinary care includes routine checkups, vaccinations, and chronic disease management for dogs, cats, and exotic pets. Using advanced diagnostics like in-house blood testing and digital imaging, we provide tailored treatment plans. Our focus on preventive care helps maintain pet health through all life stages while addressing acute medical needs.
Surgical Services
We perform various surgical procedures including spays/neuters, tumor removals, and orthopedic repairs. Modern anesthetic monitoring ensures patient safety, with pre-surgical blood testing required for all pets. Post-operative care includes pain management and follow-up appointments to ensure proper healing, with absorbable sutures used when possible.
Dental Cleanings
Professional dental cleanings include scaling, polishing, and digital X-rays to detect hidden oral disease. We treat periodontal issues and perform extractions when necessary. Regular dental maintenance prevents systemic health problems and addresses symptoms like bad breath or eating difficulties in pets.
Emergency Treatment
Emergency veterinary services are available during regular business hours without additional fees. We handle trauma, poisoning, breathing difficulties, and other critical conditions. For after-hours emergencies, we provide guidance through our answering service while maintaining continuity of care.
Pet Boarding
Our boarding facility accommodates dogs and cats with separate housing areas. Indoor kennels include three daily walks for dogs and personalized attention from staff. We provide bedding and food, though owners may bring their own items for familiarity. Boarding includes health monitoring and access to veterinary care if needed.
