Island Veterinary Clinic: Witherow Allison DVM

We provide thorough Comprehensive Physical Exams to assess your pet's overall health, detect early signs of disease, and tailor preventive care plans. Our veterinarians conduct detailed head-to-tail evaluations during wellness visits, senior checkups, and pre-surgical examinations to ensure nothing is overlooked.

We offer specialized Puppy & Kitten Wellness Packages that include growth monitoring, developmental evaluations, core vaccinations, microchipping, deworming, and early parasite prevention. These packages are designed to establish a strong foundation for lifelong health and well-being.

Our Senior Pet Wellness Care focuses on proactive aging management through tailored treatment plans, advanced diagnostics, and personalized care strategies. We adapt vaccination schedules, increase screening frequency for chronic conditions, and address mobility, nutritional, and quality-of-life concerns to support aging pets.

We provide essential Core Vaccinations such as Rabies, Distemper, and Parvo to protect your pet from serious, contagious, and potentially fatal diseases. These vaccines are customized based on your pet’s lifestyle, age, and health status, ensuring comprehensive immunity.

We offer annual Heartworm Testing & Prevention programs to detect and treat this life-threatening disease early. Our preventatives are designed to protect your pet year-round, complemented by thorough testing and educational guidance to maintain heartworm-free status.

Our Flea & Tick Prevention services include monthly topical treatments, oral medications, and environmental control strategies. We customize plans based on your pet’s exposure risks, such as hiking, yard access, or multi-pet households, to eliminate parasites and prevent secondary infections.

We provide Microchipping & Registration with a quick, painless procedure to implant a permanent ID chip that stores your contact information. Our team updates registrations during annual visits and ensures your pet’s information is current in case of loss. Services include scanning for existing chips and repairing damaged microchips.

Our Nutritional Counseling & Weight Management services include diet analysis, obesity prevention plans, portion control guidance, and therapeutic food recommendations. We partner with pet owners to address dietary sensitivities, chronic conditions (diabetes, kidney disease), and life-stage needs (puppy, senior) for optimal health.

We perform Parasite Deworming for intestinal parasites through targeted medications, fecal testing, and follow-up diagnostics to eliminate infections like roundworms, hookworms, and tapeworms. Fecal exams accompany deworming treatments to confirm eradication and adjust protocols as needed.

Our clinic runs comprehensive In-House Bloodwork, including complete blood counts (CBC) and chemistry panels, to assess organ function, detect metabolic disorders, and monitor chronic conditions like liver or kidney disease. Rapid results allow for prompt diagnoses and individualized treatment plans.

We conduct Urinalysis to evaluate your pet’s urinary health, screening for infections, crystals, diabetes, and kidney disease. This diagnostic tool is critical for early detection and management of bladder and kidney-related issues in pets of all ages.

Our Fecal Testing service screens for intestinal parasites, bacterial infections, and occult blood to identify underlying gastrointestinal issues. Results guide deworming treatments and additional diagnostics to ensure your pet’s digestive health remains optimal.

We utilize Digital X-Rays (Radiography) to diagnose fractures, orthopedic conditions, heart disease, abdominal masses, and other internal abnormalities. Our state-of-the-art imaging provides quick, high-resolution results for accurate assessment and treatment planning, including surgical or medical interventions.

Our clinic offers Ultrasound Imaging to examine abdominal and thoracic organs, detect pregnancies, identify tumors, and assess fluid accumulations. This non-invasive diagnostic tool aids in early detection of critical conditions like heartworm, liver disease, and reproductive health issues.

Our Dental X-Rays uncover hidden dental issues such as root infections, jawbone fractures, and subgingival tartar buildup not visible during standard exams. Digital radiography allows precise diagnosis for procedures like tooth extractions or oral surgery.

We perform Tooth Extractions for pets with severe dental disease, fractures, or persistent infections under anesthesia with advanced pain management. Post-procedure care instructions and follow-up exams ensure comfortable recovery and healing.

Our Spay & Neuter Surgery services include routine procedures for pets, as well as advanced techniques for complex cases. We prioritize patient safety with pre-surgical bloodwork, pain management, and personalized post-operative care to minimize complications and promote swift recovery.

Our Wound & Laceration Repair services include careful cleaning, suturing, or advanced closure techniques (e.g., tissue adhesion) for bite wounds, cuts, or surgical incisions. We monitor for infection and provide post-operative care instructions, including pain management to aid healing.

We provide Emergency Stabilization during urgent-care visits for trauma, poisoning, or critical illnesses. Our protocol includes IV fluids, oxygen therapy, pain relief, and diagnostic triage to prepare pets for advanced treatment or hospitalization, ensuring immediate and effective care.

Our clinic provides Oxygen Therapy for pets with respiratory distress, shock, or post-anesthetic support. Oxygen cages or nasal cannulas deliver targeted therapy while we monitor vital signs to ensure improved oxygenation and stabilize critical conditions.

Our clinic offers IV Fluid Therapy to correct dehydration, support kidney function, or stabilize critically ill pets. Fluids are tailored to specific conditions (e.g., hypovolemia, urinary obstruction) and administered with constant monitoring to ensure safety and efficacy.

We specialize in Pain Management with advanced pharmaceuticals, local anesthesia, and post-surgical care plans. Whether managing chronic conditions (arthritis) or acute pain (post-surgery), protocols are customized for comfort, safety, and quality of life.

Our Poison & Toxin Treatment services include emergency decontamination, administration of antidotes (when available), and supportive care for ingestion of medications, plants, or chemicals. We consult toxicology resources and local emergency services to optimize outcomes and prevent organ damage.

We provide Medical Grooming for pets with skin conditions, limited mobility, or postoperative care needs. Services include safe baths, nail trims, anal gland expressions, and medicated treatments to maintain hygiene without stressing vulnerable patients.

Our Nail Trimming & Dremeling services prevent overgrowth and injuries (e.g., cracked pads). We provide options for pet and owner stress levels—including sedation for anxious pets—and can accommodate specialized needs like post-operative paw care.

We offer Anal Gland Expression via a quick, non-surgical procedure to relieve discomfort and prevent infections or abscesses in pets that scoot or lick their rectums. Services are performed during wellness exams or as needed based on individual health.
