Our Services

Wellness Exams

Our wellness services go beyond just checkups. From vaccinations to preventive care for fleas, ticks, and heartworm, we aim to catch health concerns early on, ensuring your pet’s well-being for years to come.

Vaccinations

Protecting your pet from diseases is a top priority, and certain vaccines are required by law. Through vaccinations, we help boost your pet’s immunity, keeping them healthier and happier for longer.

Spaying and Neutering

Beyond managing behaviors and preventing unwanted litters, spaying or neutering your pet at our clinic can also reduce the risk of infections and certain cancers. We’re here to guide you every step of the way, ensuring you have all the information needed to make the best decision for your beloved friend.

General and Elective Surgeries

Trust us for both routine and elective surgeries, including vital procedures like spays, neuters, and mass removals. Your pet’s safety and comfort are our top priorities, and they receive careful monitoring throughout their procedures.

Laser Surgery

Laser Surgery is a safer and more comfortable alternative for your pet’s surgical needs. With reduced pain, bleeding, and swifter recovery times, this advanced technique is not only perfect for routine surgeries but also for delicate tasks like removing growths.

Digital Thermal Imaging

Digital Thermal Imaging is a state-of-the-art technology that allows us to create detailed images of your pet’s body heat patterns. This non-invasive technique helps us detect potential areas of concern early on, providing a deeper level of insight into your pet’s health and allowing for proactive treatment when needed.

Digital Radiography

We offer digital radiography services to provide in-depth insights into your pet’s health. By utilizing high-quality digital X-rays, we can accurately diagnose heart conditions, fractures, tumors, and other concerns. Our digital system allows for easy storage of images on a computer, enabling us to share them with outside specialists for second opinions.

Dental Services and Surgery

Dental health is closely linked to overall health. Our routine dental treatments involve the removal of plaque and tartar, reducing the risk of gum disease and preventing serious health issues. We also provide guidance on maintaining good at-home dental care.

In-House Pharmacy

Our online pharmacy enables us to deliver accurate immunizations and treatments for your pet. We ensure precise dosing and monitoring during therapy, offering a range of medications including flea and tick preventatives, heartworm medications, and pain relief. Our team collaborates with you to choose the most suitable treatments for your pet.

In-House Lab/Reference Labs

We conduct blood tests to monitor your pet’s internal organ function accurately. These tests are vital in detecting diseases affecting organs like the pancreas, liver, and kidneys. With our in-house laboratory equipped with advanced blood analyzers, we can perform a variety of tests to promptly identify any significant changes in your pet’s health.

Ocular Tonometry

At our clinic, we perform ocular tonometry to measure the fluid pressure inside your pet’s eye. This important procedure helps us evaluate the risk of glaucoma and monitor your pet’s eye health effectively.

Microchipping

Ensure a swift reunion with your furry friend if they go missing with our microchipping service. We implant a tiny microchip, about the size of a grain of rice, under your pet’s skin for permanent identification. The microchip can be easily scanned by a veterinarian or technician to reunite you with your beloved companion.

End of Life Services

Understanding the emotional difficulty of saying goodbye to a pet, we provide compassionate end-of-life services. Whether your pet is aging or has faced a serious injury, our team is here to ensure a warm and comfortable experience during the euthanasia process.

Cremation

Let us help you honor your pet’s memory with our dignified cremation services. We offer safe and efficient cremation options along with various urns and statuary to provide a permanent resting place for your cherished companion.

Pain Management

We are dedicated to ensuring your pet’s happiness and well-being by offering customized pain management solutions. Together, we will develop a personalized plan to help your pet live a pain-free and comfortable life tailored to their specific needs.

Ultrasonography

Our ultrasonography services allow us to deliver top-notch care for your pet. Ultrasounds can help us gather crucial diagnostic information to promote your pet’s overall health and well-being. In cases requiring more specialized ultrasound studies, we will refer you to trusted specialists for further evaluation and treatment.

Electrocardiogram

At our clinic, we use electrocardiograms to monitor your pet’s heart health. This invaluable tool helps detect irregularities in heart rhythm and heartbeat, allowing us to diagnose and address any potential heart issues promptly.

Acupuncture

We offer acupuncture as a standalone treatment or in conjunction with traditional veterinary care, addressing a wide range of conditions with minimal discomfort for your pet. Our goal is to create a relaxing environment and tailor each treatment to suit your pet’s individual needs.

Massage

Our animal massage services deliver various benefits, from improved circulation and stress reduction to pain relief and enhanced organ function. By offering muscle stimulation and promoting relaxation, massage contributes to better sleep and joint function for your pet.

VSMT (Veterinary Spinal Manipulative Therapy)

VSMT, also known as veterinary chiropractic care, complements traditional veterinary treatments, particularly for pets dealing with trauma, disk injuries, or post-surgery recovery. Adjustments during VSMT enhance blood flow to the spine and nerves, easing pain, enhancing nerve health, and strengthening joints.

Companion Therapy Laser

We use FDA-cleared Companion Therapy Laser for pain management and controlling inflammation, especially beneficial for geriatric care. Our laser therapy accelerates the healing process and offers effective treatment for both acute and chronic conditions. By triggering a biological response, the targeted light beam fosters a quicker recovery for your pet in their golden years.

Referrals to ER and Board Certified Specialists

At our clinic, we prioritize your pet’s well-being above all else. We are dedicated to providing the best possible care, and for services that may require specialized treatment, we will not hesitate to refer you to trusted, board-certified specialists and doctors. This ensures that your pet receives exceptional treatment from highly qualified professionals who will always do what is best for their health.
