Wellness Exams
Our comprehensive wellness exams monitor pet health through physical assessments, vaccination updates, and preventive care planning. We evaluate heart, lungs, eyes, ears, skin, teeth, and joints while discussing diet and behavior changes. These exams help detect early signs of disease and establish baseline health metrics for pets at every life stage.
Surgical Procedures
We perform various soft tissue surgeries including spays, neuters, mass removals, and emergency procedures. Pre-surgical exams and bloodwork ensure patient safety, while advanced monitoring equipment tracks vital signs during operations. Post-operative care includes pain management and detailed recovery instructions to support optimal healing for dogs and cats.
Dental Care
Our dental services prevent and treat oral diseases through professional cleanings, extractions, and periodontal treatments. Using ultrasonic scalers and polishers, we remove plaque and tartar buildup that can lead to systemic health issues. We educate owners on home care techniques and provide oral health assessments during routine exams.
Digital X-Rays
Digital radiography enables rapid, accurate diagnosis of internal injuries, bone fractures, and organ abnormalities. This technology produces high-resolution images with reduced radiation exposure compared to traditional X-rays. We use it to evaluate respiratory issues, skeletal conditions, and abdominal concerns in real-time.
In-House Lab
Our on-site laboratory provides immediate blood chemistry and hematology results for efficient disease detection. We perform pre-anesthetic screening, infection testing, and organ function assessments within minutes. For specialized analysis, we partner with Antech Diagnostics to ensure comprehensive diagnostic capabilities for complex cases.
