Because of the shorter lifespan of our pets, we stress the importance of an annual physical examination.
As our pets get into middle age, we then recommend physical examinations twice a year.
Thorough check-ups and preventive care can help prevent or alleviate serious health problems.
Diagnostic and Therapeutic Services: Our hospital is equipped to provide diagnostic and therapeutic services to care for your pets' complete health care needs.
Surgical Services: Our state-of-the-art surgical suites provide for the performance of a wide variety of surgical procedures.

As a young child I found a stray dog while playing outside and immediately fell in love with her!
I brought her home and much to my surprise, my parents let me keep her.
I must have been about seven years old at the time.
Soon thereafter, Taffy decided to eat a sponge and developed a complete obstruction - vomiting was all that she could do.
We took her to our local veterinarian who surgically removed the sponge, but told us that she might not live because she was so weak.
I remember sitting with her day and night so that I could hand-feed her small portions of food - I was not about to let her die.

One of the things that many clients fear the most is anesthesia.
This need not be the case!
As a veterinarian, I have been using various anesthetics for over 47 years.
Over the years I have seen the development of many new drugs and the drugs that we are currently using are so safe that we do not hesitate to anesthetize any pet that needs to have a procedure done.
For those of you that like details, let's go over some specific drugs and anesthetic protocols.
LOCAL ANESTHETICS - These drugs are injected into the body to create a desensitized area of the skin, or sections of a limb.
