Franklin Veterinary Associates

We offer thorough head-to-tail exams, including evaluations of teeth, ears, lymph nodes, heart, and skin. Regular exams every 6–12 months help detect issues early and establish baseline health metrics for your pet.

We administer core vaccinations such as rabies, distemper, parvovirus (for dogs), and panleukopenia (for cats) to ensure your pet is protected against life-threatening diseases. Vaccination protocols follow AAHA guidelines for optimal immunity.

We provide comprehensive blood testing through our on-site lab, including CBC (Complete Blood Count) and chemistry panels to evaluate kidney, liver, thyroid, pancreatic function, blood sugar, electrolytes, and more. Early detection empowers better treatment decisions for your pet.

We offer same-day urinalysis to assess your pet’s kidney health, screen for urinary tract infections, diabetes, and crystal formation. Fast results help address issues quickly and improve long-term wellness.

Our in-house fecal testing diagnostic parasites like Giardia, internal worms, and other intestinal pathogens. Rapid results allow us to treat infections promptly, preventing complications in your pet’s health.

Our in-house digital X-ray machines provide detailed images quickly and with low radiation, allowing us to evaluate bones, organs, internal masses, or other abnormalities for accurate diagnoses and treatment planning.

We offer abdominal ultrasounds to visualize organs like the bladder, kidneys, liver, and heart. This non-invasive imaging helps us identify tumors, infections, birth defects, and other conditions requiring further investigation.

Using tonometry, we perform quick and painless eye pressure tests to screen for glaucoma or elevated intraocular pressure, ensuring early detection and management of serious eye conditions.

As part of our diagnostics, we monitor blood pressure to identify hypertension in dogs and, if needed, provide treatment to manage cardiovascular health and prevent complications.

Our veterinary team conducts electrocardiograms to evaluate heart rate, rhythm, and electrical activity. This aids in diagnosing heart disease, arrhythmias, or other cardiac concerns for targeted treatment.

During dental procedures, we perform extractions for damaged, fractured, or infected teeth as needed, using advanced imaging (digital X-rays) to guide the process. Patient comfort and safety are prioritized throughout.

Our veterinarians perform routine spays/neuters with the latest anesthesia monitoring, including continuous ECG, blood pressure, and oxygen saturation tracking to ensure safety. Surgical procedures are performed in sterilized suites, similar to human hospitals.

Our surgical team is equipped to remove ingested objects (foreign bodies) that could cause obstructions or perforate organs, using minimally invasive techniques when possible for quicker recovery.

We surgically repair deep cuts, lacerations, and wounds to prevent infection and promote proper healing. Advanced suturing techniques and pain management are applied to minimize discomfort.

We perform surgical bladder stone removal for pets suffering from urolithiasis, followed by dietary or medical management to prevent recurrence. Minimally invasive approaches reduce recovery time when possible.

Our team provides emergency stabilization for pets with life-threatening conditions, including trauma, poisoning, or sudden illness. Prompt intervention includes fluid therapy, oxygen support, and critical care monitoring.

Following surgery or severe illness, we offer around-the-clock hospitalization with continuous monitoring of heart rate, temperature, and vitality to ensure a smooth recovery process.

For patients requiring additional hydration or support, we administer IV fluids to correct dehydration, provide essential nutrients, or flush toxins following illness or surgery.

We develop individualized pain management plans using the safest anesthesia and analgesic protocols for surgeries, dental procedures, and chronic conditions, focusing on your pet’s comfort.

Our team performs anal gland expressions for pets experiencing discomfort due to impacted glands. Painless and essential for maintaining pelvic health, we offer this during routine wellness exams or as needed.

Our practice includes cold laser therapy to reduce pain, inflammation, and swelling, and accelerate healing for post-surgical areas or injuries. It’s a non-invasive therapy with proven efficacy for patient recovery.
