Services
Dentistry
Our dental services prevent and treat oral health issues that can extend pets' lives by 15%. We perform comprehensive cleanings, extractions, and tartar removal under anesthesia using ultrasonic tools. Regular dental care prevents pain, infections, and systemic diseases affecting heart, kidney, and liver health. We recommend annual dental exams and offer at-home care guidance including brushing techniques and appropriate chew toys.
Microchipping
Microchipping provides permanent identification for pets through a rice-sized implant that lasts their lifetime. This simple, painless procedure offers the highest reunification rate for lost pets compared to traditional collars. Our staff explains proper registration processes and maintenance requirements to ensure permanent identification. We also check microchip functionality during routine exams to guarantee proper operation.
Surgery
Our surgical suite offers laser procedures, heated tables, and advanced monitoring for procedures ranging from spays/neuters to complex orthopedics. We use sevoflurane anesthesia for high-risk patients and tailor protocols based on age, breed, and medical history. Pre-surgical blood testing detects organ function issues, while pulse oximetry and ECG monitoring ensure patient safety during operations. Post-operative care includes pain management and recovery tracking.
Water Therapy
Underwater treadmill therapy strengthens muscles with minimal joint stress for pets with arthritis, obesity, or post-injury rehabilitation. The buoyancy reduces weight-bearing pressure while resistance builds muscle mass. Sessions improve range of motion, cardiovascular fitness, and mental stimulation. Our trained staff monitors each session to ensure proper technique and progression toward mobility goals.
Preventative Care
Biannual exams detect early disease signs in pets aging 5-7 times faster than humans. Our vaccination schedules follow AAHA guidelines with tailored protocols for puppies, kittens, and senior pets. Preventive measures include heartworm prevention, parasite control, and behavioral assessments. We provide age-specific care recommendations and maintain detailed medical records to track long-term health trends.
