Animal Clinic of Athens

We offer thorough Comprehensive Physical Exams for dogs and cats at every stage of life. Our state-of-the-art diagnostic tools help us assess overall health, detect early signs of illness, and provide personalized wellness recommendations. Regular exams are essential for preventive care and maintaining long-term well-being.

We create customized Puppy & Kitten Wellness Packages to set your new pet up for a healthy life. This includes staged vaccinations, multiple physical exams (3–4 visits in the first 8–16 weeks), diagnostic testing (heartworm for puppies, FeLV/FIV for kittens), and guidance on growth, nutrition, and early spay/neuter options.

We provide all Core Vaccinations, including rabies, distemper, and parvovirus, as recommended by the AAHA. These are critical for preventing infectious diseases in dogs and are required for boarding, travel, or adoption. Vaccination schedules are tailored to your pet’s age and lifestyle risks.

We perform annual Heartworm Testing and provide preventive medications to protect your pet from this deadly parasitic disease. Early detection and prevention are key to safeguarding your dog’s health, especially in areas with mosquito activity.

Our clinic offers Flea & Tick Prevention programs with FDA-approved treatments to keep your pet safe year-round. We’ll help you choose the right preventive based on your pet’s environment, breed, and health status, along with boarder requirements.

We provide Microchipping & Registration as a permanent identifier for your pet, significantly increasing the chances of reunion if they become lost. Our microchips are registered in national databases, and we offer reminders to keep contact information up to date.

We offer Fecal Testing to identify intestinal parasites like giardia, coccidia, or hookworms. Regular testing is critical for prevention and treatment, especially for young, outdoor, or unwell pets.

We perform Allergy Testing to identify environmental or food allergies in pets. Testing helps us recommend hypoallergenic diets, medications, or immunotherapy to alleviate itching, skin infections, or ear conditions.

We perform Eye Pressure Testing (Glaucoma Screening) to detect early signs of this painful, vision-threatening condition. Early diagnosis allows us to implement treatments like medications or surgery to manage pressure and prevent blindness.

We offer EKG / ECG (Heart Monitoring) to diagnose heart conditions like arrhythmias or congestive heart failure. EKGs are performed during wellness exams or when symptoms (coughing, lethargy) suggest cardiac issues.

As part of our Pet Dental Care, we perform Dental X-Rays to identify hidden issues like root infections, abscesses, or fractured teeth. X-rays guide treatments such as extractions, periodontal therapy, or advanced oral surgery, ensuring thorough care.

We perform Tooth Extractions when necessary, addressing advanced decay, disease, or fractured teeth under anesthesia with dental X-rays for precision. This ensures pain relief and prevents systemic infections for your pet’s oral health.

We specialize in Oral Surgery, including Tooth Extractions, Periodontal Disease Treatment, and repairs for complex dental issues. Dental X-rays guide precision treatments performed under anesthesia for your pet’s comfort.

We perform Spay & Neuter Surgery to help prevent unwanted litters, reduce health risks (like mammary tumors or cancer), and manage behavioral issues in dogs and cats. Our team follows strict surgical protocols to ensure safe and comfortable recovery.

We offer C-Section (Cesarean Section) services for complex deliveries, dystocia, or maternal health concerns in dogs and cats. Our surgical team uses advanced monitoring and postoperative care to ensure safety for both mother and puppies/kittens.

Our clinic provides Emergency Stabilization for acute conditions like trauma, poisoning, or collapse. We use IV fluid therapy, oxygen, and pain management to address critical needs before further diagnostics.

For pets requiring overnight care, we offer Hospitalization & 24-Hour Monitoring with ICU-level support. Our team tracks critical signs, administers treatments, and communicates regularly with owners.

We provide Oxygen Therapy for pets with respiratory distress, anesthesia emergencies, or chronic conditions. Oxygen cages and monitored delivery ensure your pet receives safe, effective support.

We administer IV Fluid Therapy to correct dehydration, support organ function, or manage emergencies. Our team monitors hydration status and tailors fluid options based on your pet’s specific health needs.

Our Pain Management services include medications, laser therapy, and post-op care to ensure your pet’s comfort during recovery from surgery or chronic conditions. We prioritize quality of life for all patients.

Medical Grooming services are available for pets requiring gentle care due to health conditions, including medicated baths for skin conditions, sanitary shave, and nail trimming & dremeling (with optional vet-recommended sedation).

We offer Nail Trimming & Dremeling as part of our grooming and medical services. Overgrown nails can cause discomfort or mobility issues, so we provide safe, precise trimming—even for anxious pets—with optional sedation for stressed animals.

Anal Gland Expression is provided to relieve discomfort or inflammation in pets prone to impacted glands. Our team performs this quick, gentle procedure during routine check-ups or grooming visits to maintain your pet’s comfort.

Our Cold Laser Therapy service uses deep-penetrating light to accelerate healing, reduce inflammation, and alleviate pain—ideal for post-surgical recovery, arthritis, wounds, or chronic conditions like dysplasias.

We conduct Quality of Life Assessments for senior or chronically ill pets to guide end-of-life decisions. This holistic evaluation considers comfort, mobility, appetite, and happiness to help you make informed choices for your pet’s well-being.
