Wellness Exams
Our comprehensive wellness exams include full physical evaluations, medical history reviews, and preventive care recommendations. We assess all body systems, dental health, and behavioral patterns to detect early disease signs. These exams form the foundation for maintaining your pet's long-term health through personalized care plans.
Vaccinations
We provide core and lifestyle-specific vaccinations to protect pets from preventable diseases. Our protocol includes rabies, distemper, and feline leukemia vaccines, with titer testing options. All vaccinations require current wellness exams to ensure optimal immune system function before administration.
Soft Tissue Surgery
Our surgical services include spays/neuters, mass removals, and gastrointestinal procedures. We collaborate with specialist surgeons for complex cases while maintaining in-hospital care. Pre-anesthetic bloodwork and ECGs ensure patient safety during procedures performed with continuous monitoring.
Dental Cleanings
Professional dental cleanings include ultrasonic scaling, polishing, and fluoride treatment. We perform oral exams under anesthesia to address hidden dental disease. Digital dental x-rays help identify root issues requiring extraction or specialist referral for advanced oral surgery.
End of Life Services
We offer compassionate euthanasia services with private cremation options. Our team provides emotional support during difficult decisions and facilitates memorial arrangements. The process prioritizes pet comfort and owner closure in a dedicated quiet room.
