Providing the highest quality possible of veterinary services to every patient is Our Mission. First, on behalf of our hospital staff, we want to thank you for entrusting the health of your pet with us. The entire staff places high value on quality care and pledges to care for your pet as we would our own. It is our belief that your pet should receive the best medical and surgical care that we as veterinarians have the knowledge and expertise to perform.
Since our patients can not talk with us directly, it is extremely important that good communications exists between you, the pet care taker and the hospital staff as to your pet's health needs. The history of your pet's illness is one of the most important aspects a veterinarian has in arriving at a diagnosis. Please be as accurate as possible when describing signs and symptoms of your sick pet.
Our mission is to provide the highest quality and extent of veterinary services possible to every client and patient.

Diagnostics
Report
Radiographs (x-rays) are extremely helpful for diagnosing medical and surgical problems.
If your veterinarian feels a lump or growth in your pet's abdomen, a radiograph may help determine where the mass is located.
If your pet is experiencing a medical problem, radiographs can often pinpoint the organ where the problem is occurring.
Tumors and foreign bodies (lodged in the stomach or intestine) can be seen in an x-ray.
Heart and lung disease, gastrointestinal problems and bladder stones can often be seen in these as well.

Pain Management
Report
The issue of pain management is of great concern to both pet owners and veterinarians today.
As in human medicine, the knowledge of mechanisms and consequences of pain has been elevated to their proper level of importance.
Our facility has a variety of medications available to manage your pet's pain before, during, and after surgery.
All animals having surgical procedures will be administered pain medications here at the hospital and may be discharged with pain medications to continue at home.
Chronic pain (from arthritis and other degenerative conditions) may be a more difficult type of pain to control.

Why should you and your pet come in to have an exam once a year, even if your pet seems healthy and is current on vaccinations?
Good question and we have the answer!
Dogs and cats have shorter life spans than humans, thus aging more quickly.
Once mature, one year of human life averages about four years for pets.
It is crucial that your pet receives a yearly exam, even if they seem to be healthy.
Exams are essential to pick up even small changes before they become a crisis for your pet; not only for the economic savings in treating a disease early, but in giving your pet the best quality of life.

DCAH advocates microchip identification as means of permanent identifications for your pet.
Our hospital uses the AVID Friendchip.
Microchipping can be done on an outpatient basis and many clients elect to microchip when their animal is spayed or neutered.
A tiny microchip, the size of a grain of rice, is implanted using a syringe between the animal's shoulder blades.
This procedure takes just seconds and is virtually painless.
Individual numbers are registered in the national database managed by the AVID Friendchip Microchipping services.
