Services
Boarding
Our safe, clean boarding facility provides comfortable accommodations for pets when owners travel. With separate dog kennels and a secluded cat area, our trained staff offers personalized care including medication administration. Pets receive regular feeding with high-quality food while maintaining strict cleanliness protocols to ensure their safety and comfort during their stay.
Cardiology
We diagnose and treat heart and lung diseases using advanced diagnostics like digital x-rays, EKGs, and ultrasounds. Our veterinarians monitor blood pressure and hormone levels to detect early signs of cardiac issues. Through comprehensive evaluations, we develop treatment plans to improve pets' quality of life while educating owners about managing chronic heart conditions.
Dentistry
Our dental services prevent and treat periodontal disease through professional cleanings, digital x-rays, and oral surgery. Using ultrasonic scaling and polishing techniques, we remove plaque buildup while checking for oral health issues. We provide at-home care guidance to maintain dental health and prevent systemic infections that can affect vital organs.
Dermatology
We diagnose and manage skin conditions through allergy testing, biopsies, and cultures. Our veterinarians identify causes of itching, hair loss, and skin infections using intradermal testing and laboratory analysis. Treatment plans address both immediate symptoms and underlying causes of chronic skin conditions affecting pets' comfort and quality of life.
Diagnostic Imaging
Digital x-rays and ultrasound technology enable accurate internal diagnostics while minimizing radiation exposure. Our imaging services help detect fractures, organ abnormalities, and pregnancy status. When needed, we use light sedation to ensure patient comfort during procedures while maintaining high diagnostic accuracy for effective treatment planning.
