Services
Pet Physical Exams
Our comprehensive physical exams establish health baselines and detect early illness signs. Veterinarians assess general appearance, perform cardiac and lung auscultation, and conduct body palpation to evaluate pet health. We recommend annual exams for adult pets and bi-annual visits for seniors, ensuring timely intervention for any developing conditions.
Pet Vaccinations
We provide core and elective vaccinations to prevent serious pet diseases. Our protocols include canine distemper, rabies, feline leukemia, and other essential vaccines. California-mandated rabies vaccinations for dogs are administered with proper documentation. Combined vaccines like DHPP and FVRCP offer efficient protection against multiple pathogens in single doses.
In-House Diagnostics
Our on-site diagnostic equipment enables rapid blood analysis, urinalysis, and imaging. Digital radiography, hematology analyzers, and handheld ultrasound devices support immediate health assessments. For specialized testing, we partner with Antech Diagnostics to ensure comprehensive diagnostic capabilities for accurate treatment planning.
Pet Surgical Treatment
We perform routine and complex surgical procedures in our state-of-the-art facility. Services include spay/neuter operations, mass removals, dental surgeries, and emergency interventions. Our surgical team prioritizes patient safety through pre-anesthetic evaluations, monitored anesthesia, and post-operative care to ensure optimal recovery outcomes.
End-of-Life Care
Our compassionate end-of-life care guides pet owners through quality-of-life decisions. We offer humane euthanasia with sedation protocols to minimize discomfort, followed by respectful aftercare arrangements through West Coast Pet Memorial. Our team provides emotional support throughout this difficult process with personalized attention to family needs.
