Aptos-Capitola Veterinary Hospital

We provide thorough Comprehensive Physical Exams for pets of all ages and stages of life, ensuring early detection of health issues and personalized care plans tailored to your pet’s needs.

We offer Behavioral Counseling to address problematic behaviors through individualized assessment and modification plans. Our consultations evaluate underlying causes (e.g., medical conditions, environmental factors) and provide tailored strategies for long-term improvement.

We perform Ultrasound Imaging to diagnose a wide range of conditions safely and non-invasively. Our ultrasound services can identify bladder/kidney stones, tumors, pregnancy, gastrointestinal obstructions, and heart issues while enabling safe biopsy/fluid sampling without surgery.

We offer Emergency Stabilization during regular hours for current patients, preparing immediately upon notification. For after-hours emergencies or specialized care needs, we coordinate referrals to nearby emergency/specialty hospitals like Pacific & Santa Cruz Veterinary Specialists.

We offer Acupuncture, a gentle non-invasive treatment rooted in traditional Chinese medicine. Our veterinary acupuncturists use sterile needles, laser therapy, or acupressure to reduce pain, inflammation, and restore balance for conditions like arthritis, neurologic disorders, and post-surgical recovery.

We provide Cold Laser Therapy, a non-invasive holistic treatment that accelerates healing and relieves pain. Ideal for pets with chronic conditions (e.g., arthritis), post-operative care, or injuries, our laser therapy stimulates cellular repair while being entirely painless.
