Parkview Animal Hospital: Ehlers Kim A DVM

We provide Comprehensive Physical Exams for dogs and cats as part of our annual wellness visits. Our certified veterinarians thoroughly evaluate your pet’s overall health, including weight, dental condition, mobility, and organ function to detect early signs of illness or disease.

We offer specialized Senior Pet Wellness Care to address the unique needs of aging pets. Our exams include senior-specific diagnostics, pain management assessments, and tailored recommendations for diet, mobility, and chronic condition monitoring.

We administer Core Vaccinations such as Rabies, Distemper, and Parvo to protect your pets from life-threatening diseases. These vaccines are essential for all dogs and cats and are included in our routine wellness visits.

We offer Heartworm Testing annually and provide prevention medications to safeguard your pets from this deadly parasite. Heartworm disease is preventable with consistent testing and treatment, which we include in our wellness plans.

We prescribe Flea & Tick Prevention treatments tailored to your pet’s needs, including topical solutions, oral medications, and collars. These prevent parasites that can cause discomfort, allergies, or serious diseases like Lyme.

Our veterinarians provide Nutritional Counseling to help you feed your pet a balanced diet and manage weight-related issues. We offer personalized recommendations for commercial foods, homemade diets, and supplements based on your pet’s age, breed, and health status.

We perform Parasite Deworming to eliminate intestinal parasites like roundworms, hookworms, and tapeworms. Regular deworming is critical for puppies, kittens, and pets with outdoor access, and we include it in our wellness protocols.

We conduct In-House Bloodwork, including Complete Blood Counts (CBC) and Chemistry Panels, to diagnose conditions like anemia, organ dysfunction, diabetes, or infections. Our lab allows for quick results so we can start treatment promptly.

Our clinic offers Urinalysis to screen for urinary tract infections, kidney disease, crystals, and other abnormalities. This diagnostic tool helps us monitor your pet’s renal health and detect issues early.

We utilize Digital X-Rays for comprehensive diagnostics, including PennHip certification for hip evaluations. Our radiography services help diagnose fractures, arthritis, heart conditions, and foreign objects—often providing same-day results.

Our veterinarians perform Ultrasound Imaging to examine abdominal organs (liver, kidneys, spleen), reproductive health, and cardiac function. Ultrasounds are non-invasive and provide detailed images for accurate diagnoses.

We provide EKG/ECG services to monitor your pet’s heart health, detecting arrhythmias or other cardiac issues. This is especially important for senior pets or those with murmurs, breathing difficulties, or suspected heart disease.

Our Dental X-Rays reveal hidden issues like root infections, fractures, or tooth decay that aren’t visible during a standard exam. These radiographs guide our treatment plans for extractions or periodontal disease management.

We perform Tooth Extractions for severely damaged, diseased, or abscessed teeth under anesthesia. This procedure is part of our comprehensive dental care to prevent pain and systemic infections in your pet.

Our clinic treats Periodontal Disease through deep cleanings, root planing, and antibiotic therapy. We also educate pet owners on at-home dental care to slow progression and maintain oral health between professional visits.

We provide At-Home Dental Care Education, teaching you how to brush your pet’s teeth, use dental treats, and select appropriate toys or diets to reduce plaque buildup. Proper home care extends the time between professional cleanings.

We perform Spay & Neuter Surgeries with advanced techniques to ensure your pet’s safety and comfort. These procedures help prevent unwanted litters, reduce cancer risks (e.g., mammary tumors), and address behavioral issues like roaming.

We remove Foreign Bodies ingested or lodged in your pet’s mouth, throat, or digestive tract using endoscopy or surgery. Early intervention is critical to prevent complications like perforations or infections.

Our clinic performs C-Sections when natural birth is unsafe for the mother or puppies/kittens, such as in cases of dystocia (difficult labor). We provide comprehensive post-operative care to ensure a smooth recovery.

We repair Wounds & Lacerations with sutures or advanced techniques like skin grafts when needed. Our team cleans and disinfects wounds, prescribes antibiotics, and monitors healing to prevent infections.

We diagnose and remove Bladder Stones via cystotomy surgery or minimally invasive techniques like urethral stone extraction. Post-operative care includes dietary changes and medications to prevent recurrence.

We provide Emergency Stabilization for critical cases like trauma (e.g., hit-by-car), poisoning, or severe illness. Our team administers IV fluids, oxygen therapy, and medications to stabilize pets before further diagnostics.

We offer Hospitalization with round-the-clock monitoring for pets requiring intensive care post-surgery or during chronic illness management. Our ICU setup includes advanced equipment and dedicated staff.

Our clinic provides Oxygen Therapy for pets suffering from respiratory distress, heart failure, or anesthesia recovery. Oxygen cages ensure your pet receives the necessary support in a comfortable environment.

We administer IV Fluid Therapy to dehydrated pets, those undergoing surgery, or those with kidney disease. Fluids help maintain hydration, electrolyte balance, and organ function during illness or recovery.

Our veterinarians prescribe Pain Management protocols for post-surgical patients, arthritis sufferers, or pets with chronic conditions. We use medications like NSAIDs (when safe), opioids, and alternative therapies like laser therapy.

We treat Poison & Toxin exposures, including ingestion of chocolate, lilies, rodenticides, or household chemicals. Immediate actions may include inducing vomiting, IV fluids, or activated charcoal to reduce toxin absorption.

We provide Medical Grooming for pets with skin conditions, mobility issues, or post-surgical care needs. Services include sanitary shaves, nail trims, and gentle handling to promote healing.

Our Sanitary Shave service is ideal for pets with matted fur, skin infections, or those requiring post-surgical hygiene. We trim hair around wounds or sensitive areas to prevent irritation and aid recovery.

We offer Nail Trimming & Dremeling to maintain your pet’s paw health, preventing overgrowth, splits, or discomfort. Our technicians use precise tools to avoid cutting the quick (the blood vessel in the nail).

We perform Anal Gland Expression for pets with impacted anal glands, which can cause pain, scooting, or infections. This procedure is quick and relieves discomfort while we may also recommend dietary changes to prevent recurrence.

We use Cold Laser Therapy to reduce pain, inflammation, and swelling in pets recovering from surgery or managing chronic conditions like arthritis. This non-invasive treatment stimulates healing without drugs.

Our Physical Therapy services include post-surgical rehab, hydrotherapy (underwater treadmill), and targeted exercises to restore mobility. We work with pets recovering from orthopedic surgeries or injuries.

We offer Hydrotherapy using an underwater treadmill to help pets regain strength and joint function without stressing muscles. This is ideal for post-surgical patients, arthritis sufferers, or those with mobility issues.

We conduct Quality of Life Assessments for senior or chronically ill pets to evaluate pain, mobility, and happiness. This helps pet owners make informed decisions about treatment options or end-of-life care.

We refer clients to mobile veterinarians for At-Home Euthanasia if preferred. This option allows pets to pass in the comfort of their home surrounded by loved ones, with our guidance throughout the process.
