Services
Wellness Checks
Annual and bi-annual wellness exams ensure early detection of health issues. Our comprehensive physical exams assess vital organs, dental health, and mobility. We recommend age-appropriate screenings and vaccinations to maintain optimal pet health throughout all life stages.
Dental Care
Professional dental cleanings include ultrasonic scaling, subgingival cleaning, and polishing under anesthesia. We provide home care guidance for plaque prevention and treat periodontal disease to maintain oral health and prevent systemic infections.
Laser Therapy
Class IV laser treatments reduce inflammation and promote healing for musculoskeletal conditions. This non-invasive therapy effectively manages chronic pain from arthritis and accelerates recovery after surgery or injury through cellular regeneration.
Surgery
We perform routine and complex surgical procedures including spays/neuters, mass removals, and orthopedic repairs. Pre-anesthetic bloodwork and IV fluid therapy ensure patient safety, with continuous monitoring by certified technicians during all procedures.
Acupuncture
Traditional Chinese acupuncture treats chronic pain, neurological conditions, and internal medicine issues. By stimulating specific points on the body, we improve circulation and nerve function to enhance natural healing processes in pets.
