Services
Laser Therapy
Laser Light Therapy uses specific wavelengths to promote blood flow, accelerate healing, and reduce pain and inflammation in pets. This non-invasive treatment addresses arthritis, wounds, post-operative recovery, and ear infections. Our veterinarians integrate laser therapy with traditional treatments to create customized pain management plans for your pet's specific medical needs.
Wellness Exams
Comprehensive physical examinations assess your pet's overall health during vaccinations or annual visits. Our veterinarians examine eyes, ears, teeth, heart, lungs, and mobility while monitoring for age-related conditions. Early detection of issues like heart murmurs or arthritis allows timely intervention through preventative treatments and lifestyle adjustments tailored to your pet's life stage.
Geriatric Care
Specialized care for senior pets aged 7+ (dogs) and 11+ (cats) includes bi-annual exams and blood work monitoring. We address arthritis management, mobility issues, and quality-of-life decisions while providing euthanasia and cremation services through trusted partners. Our team helps identify pain indicators like stiffness or muscle loss in aging pets.
Dentistry
Full dental services include anesthetized cleanings, periodontal disease treatment, and tooth extractions using digital radiography. Our dedicated dental suite features monitoring equipment for safe procedures while educating pet owners on home oral care techniques. We address the 80% prevalence of periodontal disease in dogs and 70% in cats by age three.
Urgent Care
After-hours urgent care through VetTriage provides 24/7 telehealth consultations for non-critical cases. For life-threatening emergencies, we coordinate with Red River Animal Emergency Hospital in Fargo.
