Pleasant Valley Veterinary Care

We offer microchipping as a permanent way to identify your pet in case of loss. Our team implants a tiny chip under the skin at the back of the neck, which can be scanned by shelters or veterinarians to retrieve your contact information. We recommend combining this with an ID tag for maximum safety and encourage you to register your pet’s microchip details.

We provide personalized nutritional counseling to help you choose the best diet for your pet’s age, breed, and health needs. Our veterinarians create tailored nutrition plans to prevent allergies, obesity, and other dietary-related issues while considering your budget. We also offer weight management programs to help overweight pets achieve a healthier lifestyle.

We offer expert behavioral counseling to address issues like aggression, fear, or inappropriate behaviors in dogs and cats. Using techniques such as desensitization and counter-conditioning, we work with you and your pet to modify problematic behaviors. In some cases, medication may also be recommended for better results.

We utilize ultrasound technology to diagnose conditions like fluid cysts, tumors, abscesses, and pregnancies. Our skilled ultrasonographers use gel and a handheld transducer to create detailed images without radiation or sedation (unless required). We combine this with X-rays for comprehensive diagnostics.

While we prioritize after-hours urgent care calls until 9:00 PM, severe emergencies are referred to Cornell University’s Emergency Care and Critical Services for 24/7 stabilization. Our team ensures seamless coordination with specialists when immediate advanced care is needed.

We provide comprehensive pain management solutions using a variety of medications tailored to your pet’s needs, whether for surgery recovery, trauma, or chronic conditions. Our goal is to ensure your pet remains comfortable and pain-free during all procedures and treatments.
