Services
Medical Services
Our medical services include diagnostics, treatment, and management of chronic conditions using in-house testing and advanced equipment. We address issues like diabetes, thyroid disorders, and heart disease while providing wellness exams and parasite prevention to maintain optimal health for dogs and cats.
Surgical Services
We perform spays, neuters, soft tissue surgeries, and complex procedures with pre-anesthetic testing and pain management. Our surgical team follows strict protocols for patient safety, with access to specialists for advanced cases requiring orthopedic or specialized interventions.
Microchip Identification
Permanent microchip implantation ensures pets can be identified if lost. The rice-sized chip under the skin provides a secure ID linked to owner contact details through registries, complementing traditional collars and tags for enhanced pet recovery chances.
Dentistry
Dental services include cleaning, extractions, and periodontal disease treatment. We address tartar buildup, gum infections, and oral pain while educating owners on home care techniques to prevent tooth loss and systemic health complications from dental disease.
Radiology
Diagnostic radiology helps identify internal issues like fractures, organ abnormalities, and respiratory conditions. We use digital X-rays for quick imaging with minimal restraint, often requiring sedation for clear results and accurate diagnosis of complex cases.
