Services
Preventive Medicine
Our preventive medicine program focuses on maintaining optimal pet health through annual exams, customized vaccine schedules, parasite prevention, and senior pet blood work. We emphasize early disease detection and client education about nutrition and behavioral care. Regular check-ups help identify potential issues before they become serious health problems.
In-House Laboratory
Our advanced in-house lab features ProCyte CBC machines and Catalyst chemistry analyzers for rapid blood testing. We perform stool analysis, heartworm testing, urinalysis, and specialized SNAP tests for conditions like pancreatitis. This technology enables immediate diagnostic results during appointments, allowing faster treatment decisions for critical cases.
Digital Radiographs
Our digital radiography system provides high-quality imaging with 40% less radiation exposure. Capable of email transmission to specialists and image manipulation for better diagnosis, this technology improves accuracy in detecting bone fractures, organ abnormalities, and respiratory issues while enhancing workflow efficiency for quicker patient care.
Surgical Services
We perform routine and complex surgical procedures in our dedicated surgical suite. Using advanced monitoring equipment including ECG, pulse oximetry, and capnography, our team handles spays/neuters, mass removals, intestinal surgeries, and emergency procedures with strict safety protocols for optimal patient outcomes.
Dentistry
Our dental services include comprehensive oral exams, ultrasonic scaling, polishing, extractions, and digital dental radiography. We treat periodontal disease, broken teeth, and resorptive lesions using high-speed drills and advanced imaging to identify hidden dental problems beneath the gum line.
