Lyons Veterinary Clinic

We provide thorough Comprehensive Physical Exams to assess your pet’s health from nose to tail. During these full-body exams, we evaluate skin, coat, eyes, ears, teeth, weight, and overall mobility. This includes checking vital signs, joint health, and early signs of disease while updating vaccines, preventive care recommendations, and necessary microchip registration.

Though not explicitly named on the page, we offer tailored Puppy & Kitten Wellness Packages as part of our preventive care, including age-specific vaccinations, deworming, parasite prevention, spinal evaluations (as noted in growth/stage focus), and nutritional counseling for optimal development.

We emphasize Senior Pet Wellness Care, recommending bi-annual exams for pets aged 7+ (or earlier if health concerns arise). Senior exams include bloodwork, kidney/liver function checks, dental evaluations, and mobility assessments to address age-related conditions proactively.

We administer all Core Vaccinations for dogs (rabies, distemper, parvovirus) and cats (rabies, FVRCP). These are routinely updated in wellness exams and tailored based on local risk factors and pet lifestyle. Vaccines are essential to preventing severe, potentially fatal diseases.

We provide Heartworm Testing & Prevention with annual screenings and prescription preventive medications. Heartworm disease is serious, spread by mosquitoes, and can be fatal; we offer tailored plans to keep your pet safe year-round, including seasonal reminders for mosquito-active months.

We offer Flea & Tick Prevention programs with seasonal treatments and preventive medications. Fleas and ticks can cause allergies, skin infections, and transmit diseases like Lyme disease. We recommend year-round protection for pets in New York to minimize risks.

We provide Microchipping & Registration during wellness exams, updating information to ensure pets can be returned if lost. Microchips are implanted subcutaneously and registered in national databases for permanent identification, with no risk of loss like collars.

We offer Nutritional Counseling & Weight Management, evaluating your pet’s diet, weight trends, and age-specific needs. We provide feeding guidelines, obesity management plans, and recommend therapeutic diets for chronic conditions like diabetes or kidney disease.

We include Parasite Deworming (Intestinal) in wellness exams, especially for puppies/kittens and pets with outdoor access. Fecal testing identifies parasites, and we prescribe deworming treatments tailored to your pet’s results and risk factors.

We conduct In-House Bloodwork (CBC, chemistry panels) during wellness and diagnostic visits to screen for organ function, diabetes, thyroid imbalances, and more. Annual bloodwork is recommended for middle-aged/pets showing symptoms, enabling early detection and treatment.

We provide Urinalysis as part of our diagnostic testing to detect urinary tract infections, kidney disease, diabetes, and stones. This test is crucial for pets with urinary symptoms (e.g., frequent urination, straining) or senior pets requiring proactive monitoring.

We perform Fecal Testing during wellness exams and for pets with gastrointestinal issues (e.g., diarrhea, weight loss). Testing identifies intestinal parasites (roundworms, hookworms), ensuring timely deworming and preventing zoonotic transmission.

We offer Digital X-Rays (Radiography) for diagnostic imaging to evaluate fractures, tumors, heart/lung conditions, and abdominal issues. X-rays provide detailed internal views, supporting accurate diagnoses for pets with trauma, lameness, or unexplained symptoms.

We perform Dental X-Rays to detect hidden dental issues like root infections, broken teeth, or oral tumors. This is a critical part of professional cleanings and dental surgeries to ensure thorough treatment recommendations for pets with oral discomfort.

We offer Tooth Extractions for severely decayed, broken, or infected teeth. Extractions are performed under anesthesia with local anesthesia to ensure comfort, and we provide post-op care instructions for a smooth recovery.

We treat Oral Surgery cases, including tumor removals, mandible fractures, and advanced dental disease treatments. These procedures are performed in our surgical suite with specialized equipment for optimal outcomes and patient safety.

We provide Periodontal Disease Treatment, including deep cleanings, periodontal pockets scaling, and home care education. Periodontal disease is painful and can affect other organs; we aim to treat it early and provide maintenance plans to slow progression.

We educate pet owners on At-Home Dental Care, including toothbrushing techniques, dental dietic recommendations, and oral health products suitable for pets. Preventing dental disease at home complements our professional cleanings for long-term health.

We provide routine Spay & Neuter Surgery as standard preventive care, reducing the risks of cancers (e.g., mammary, testicular), unwanted litters, and pyometra. Our surgical team ensures minimally invasive procedures with post-op monitoring for quick recovery.

We treat Foreign Body Removal, including items swallowed or lodge in pets’ throats/abdomens. Imaging is used to locate objects, and surgical or endoscopic retrieval is performed in our surgical suite based on urgency.

We offer C-Section (Cesarean Section) for births requiring surgical intervention due to dystocia (blocked labor), fetal distress, or other complications. This ensures the safety of mother and offspring, with post-op monitoring for the dam and newborns.

We provide Wound & Laceration Repair, cleaning and closing injuries with sutures or stitches under anesthesia or sedation. We monitor healing, prescribe antibiotics, and advise activity restrictions to prevent complications like infections or dehiscence.

We perform Bladder Stone Removal (cystotomy) for pets with urinary stones causing blockages, infections, or discomfort. This is done via surgery with follow-up diagnostics (e.g., X-rays, ultrasound) to identify stone composition and recurrence prevention strategies.

We treat Cherry Eye Repair, a common condition in dogs where the tear gland prolapses. Surgical correction is performed under anesthesia to return the gland to its normal position, resolving the painful protrusion and preventing recurrence.

We provide Emergency Stabilization for critical patients, including trauma, poisoning, or sudden illness. This involves IV fluids, oxygen therapy, and pain management to stabilize pets before treatment or referral, with 24/7 monitoring until they are discharged to primary care.

We offer Hospitalization & 24-Hour Monitoring for pets requiring overnight care post-surgery, chronic management, or acute illness. Our hospital staff continuously monitors for complications and adjusts treatment plans as needed.

We provide Oxygen Therapy for pets with respiratory distress, trauma, or post-operative recovery, using oxygen cages or nasal cannulas. This supports oxygenation and reduces recovery time for pets unable to maintain adequate oxygen levels.

We administer IV Fluid Therapy for dehydration, shock, medication delivery, or post-operative support. Fluids are tailored to the pet’s needs (e.g., electrolyte balance, kidney function) and administered with continuous monitoring to assess response and adjust as necessary.

We prioritize Pain Management for surgical, traumatic, or chronic pain cases. Our team uses multimodal approaches, such as injectable analgesics, oral medications, and intra-operative techniques to ensure a humane recovery and comfortable healing process.

We treat Poison & Toxin Treatment, inducing vomiting, flushing, or administering antidotes for ingested toxins (e.g., chocolate, lilies, antifreeze). We consult toxicology databases and refer to emergency centers if necessary for cases requiring specialized care.

We perform Medical Grooming, including sanitary shaves, medicated baths for dermatitis, and limited hair trims around wounds or injuries. This service is adapted to pets with conditions like allergies or mobility limitations, ensuring safe and therapeutic care.

We offer Sanitary Shaves for female pets post-surgery or as part of wound care to prevent infection and facilitate healing. This also aids in managing matted fur, urinary incontinence, or dermatitis requiring topical therapies.

We provide Nail Trimming & Dremeling, addressing overgrown nails or painful snags. Trimming is done with care to avoid quick damage, and dremeling (sanding) can be used for anxious pets or those requiring less invasive maintenance.

We perform Anal Gland Expression to relieve impacted or abscessed glands, a common issue in dogs causing pain and scooting. This is done in-house with post-procedure advice to prevent recurrence, including dietary adjustments and hygiene tips.

We offer Standard Pet Boarding for pets traveling or needing supervised care. Our facilities include safe, comfortable housing with socialization opportunities (where feasible) and personalized health checks.

We issue Domestic Travel Certificates for pets moving within the U.S. or boarding/traveling across states. This ensures compliance with any regional health requirements and certifies vaccinations for facilities like kennels or daycare.

We perform Quality of Life Assessment (e.g., HHHHHMM scale) for senior or terminally ill pets, helping owners evaluate comfort, mobility, hunger, hygiene, and pain levels to guide informed end-of-life decisions.

We offer Telemedicine Consultations for pet owners needing non-urgent veterinary advice. Through secure video calls or messaging, we can discuss mild issues, medication refills, or follow-up care between in-person visits.
