Avian & Exotic Animal Medical

We recommend periodic physical examinations for birds, small mammals, and exotic pets to catch potential health issues early. Our exams are tailored to detect subtle signs of illness that these species often hide until they become severe. We discuss your pet’s care routine during the exam and address any concerns you may have.

We provide essential vaccinations for ferrets, including rabies and canine distemper vaccines. Ferrets are highly susceptible to distemper, which is often fatal, so we recommend an initial series of three vaccinations followed by annual boosters.

We offer intestinal parasite screening through simple stool samples to identify parasites and prescribe targeted deworming treatments. Routine deworming is essential not only for your pet’s health but also to prevent zoonotic transmission, as some parasites can affect humans.

We perform in-house laboratory tests, including complete blood counts (CBCs), cytology, and other diagnostics. For specialized tests requiring external labs, we send samples to trusted veterinary laboratories for accurate results.

Our facility is equipped with an in-house x-ray machine and processor, allowing us to obtain rapid diagnostic imaging for your exotic pet’s care. This helps us identify internal issues efficiently during examinations or post-surgery.

We provide in-hospital care for exotic pets when necessary, including a quiet and comfortable hospital ward to minimize stress. Patients requiring thermal support are placed in intensive care units for specialized monitoring during their stay.

We offer professional nail trims for birds and small mammals, as well as wing and beak trims when needed. Owners often prefer our services to avoid struggles at home, and we recommend wing trims twice yearly following major molts.
