Orchard Mesa Veterinary Hospital- Nancy Hugenberg, DVM

We provide thorough Comprehensive Physical Exams for pets of all ages, covering nose-to-tail assessments including vital signs (weight, heart rate, respiratory rate), eyes, ears, skin, coat, joints, and limbs. These exams establish a health baseline and help detect early signs of illness or disease.

We offer specialized Puppy & Kitten Wellness Packages to ensure your new pet starts life on the right foot. These packages include vaccinations (such as rabies, distemper, and parvovirus), deworming, spay/neuter consultations, and nutritional guidance tailored for growth.

Our Senior Pet Wellness Care focuses on proactive health management for aging pets. We recommend bi-annual exams to monitor age-related conditions like arthritis, diabetes, kidney disease, and thyroid issues. Senior wellness visits include lab work (bloodwork, urinalysis), pain management assessments, and personalized care plans.

We provide essential Core Vaccinations for dogs and cats, including rabies, distemper, parvovirus, and feline calicivirus/panleukopenia. These vaccines are critical for preventing life-threatening diseases and are often administered during wellness exams.

We perform Heartworm Testing annually and provide year-round prevention medications to protect your pet from this deadly parasitic disease. Heartworm prevention is a key component of our preventative medicine program, especially for dogs.

Our clinic offers Flea & Tick Prevention solutions tailored to your pet’s needs, including topical treatments, oral medications, and environmental control products. We discuss the best options during wellness exams to keep parasites at bay.

We provide Microchipping & Registration services for pets as a permanent form of identification. Microchips increase the likelihood of reuniting lost pets with their owners and can be implanted during routine visits or spay/neuter procedures.

During wellness exams, we offer Nutritional Counseling & Weight Management to ensure your pet maintains a healthy diet based on their age, breed, and activity level. We provide recommendations for high-quality foods and weight-loss or senior-specific diets as needed.

Our clinic performs In-House Bloodwork, including Complete Blood Counts (CBC) and chemistry panels, to monitor organ function, detect diseases like diabetes or kidney issues, and assess pre-surgical health. Results are available quickly for timely treatment decisions.

We offer Urinalysis as part of our diagnostic services to evaluate kidney function, detect urinary tract infections (UTIs), or screen for metabolic diseases like diabetes. This test is especially valuable for senior pets and those with chronic conditions.

We provide Fecal Testing to identify intestinal parasites, including giardia and coccidia, which can cause digestive issues or transmit diseases. This test is often recommended during wellness exams or if your pet shows signs of gastrointestinal upset.

Our clinic uses advanced Digital X-Rays to diagnose fractures, dental disease, foreign objects, and internal abnormalities. We employ board-certified radiologists to ensure accurate interpretations and provide same-day results for urgent cases.

We offer Ultrasound Imaging to examine abdominal organs (liver, kidneys, spleen), reproductive structures, and cardiac health via echocardiograms. Ultrasounds are non-invasive and provide real-time images for diagnosing conditions like tumors or organ disease.

As part of our dental care services, we offer Dental X-Rays to assess hidden issues like root infections, fractures, or tooth resorption. These radiographs guide treatment plans for extractions or periodontal disease.

We perform Tooth Extractions for severely decayed, fractured, or diseased teeth to relieve pain and prevent infections. Extractions are done under anesthesia with advanced imaging (Dental X-Rays) for precision.

Our clinic offers Oral Surgery for complex cases, including tumor removals, jaw fractures, or advanced periodontal procedures. We use surgical lasers and digital imaging to ensure minimal discomfort and rapid recovery.

We treat Periodontal Disease through deep cleanings, root planing, and antimicrobial treatments to address gum inflammation and bone loss. Early intervention helps prevent tooth loss and systemic health issues linked to oral bacteria.

We educate pet owners on At-Home Dental Care, including brushing techniques, dental diets, and water additives to maintain oral health between professional cleanings. Our team provides personalized recommendations during wellness visits.

We perform routine Spay & Neuter Surgery for dogs and cats to prevent unwanted litters, reduce cancer risks (e.g., mammary tumors), and improve longevity. Procedures are performed with pain management and post-operative care included.

We perform Foreign Body Removal surgeries to extract objects ingested or lodged in the gastrointestinal tract or other body cavities. Digital X-Rays guide these procedures for safe and complete removal.

Our team repairs Wound & Laceration injuries with advanced suturing techniques and wound management protocols. We monitor healing progress and provide pain control to ensure comfort during recovery.

We offer Hospitalization & 24-Hour Monitoring for pets requiring intensive care post-surgery or during chronic illness management. Our team provides round-the-clock observation, medication administration, and supportive therapies.

We provide Oxygen Therapy to support pets with respiratory distress, post-anesthesia recovery, or cardiac conditions. Oxygen cages and monitoring ensure safe delivery of supplemental oxygen as needed.

Our clinic administers IV Fluid Therapy to dehydrated pets, those undergoing surgery, or suffering from kidney disease. IV fluids help maintain hydration, electrolyte balance, and organ function during recovery.

We offer comprehensive Pain Management services, including pre- and post-operative pain control, chronic condition management (e.g., arthritis), and acupuncture. Our goal is to improve your pet’s comfort and quality of life.

In cases of Poison & Toxin Exposure, we provide immediate treatment, including induced vomiting (when safe), IV fluids, and supportive care. We also partner with the ASPCA Animal Poison Control Center for expert guidance.

We provide Acupuncture as a complementary therapy for pain management, arthritis, and rehabilitation. Licensed veterinarians perform acupuncture sessions to promote healing, reduce inflammation, and improve mobility.

Our clinic provides Standard Pet Boarding services with clean, safe kennels and attentive care for pets while you travel. We offer daycare options, socialization, and personalized feeding schedules to ensure your pet’s comfort.

We operate a Doggie Daycare facility where pets can socialize, exercise, and play under supervised care. Our daycare includes enrichment activities and health monitoring to keep pets happy and active.

We provide Quality of Life Assessments to help pet owners evaluate their companion’s comfort, mobility, and happiness. These discussions guide decisions about palliative care or end-of-life options with compassion.
