We provide thorough Comprehensive Physical Exams to ensure early detection of health issues and personalized care tailored to your pet’s unique needs during every visit. Our team uses advanced diagnostic tools to assess overall well-being, including weight, mobility, organ function, and more. This proactive approach is the foundation of our preventive care philosophy to support your pet’s long, happy life.

Our Puppy & Kitten Wellness Packages are designed to give your young pet the strongest start in life with age-appropriate vaccinations, parasite prevention, and early health screenings. We cover core and lifestyle vaccines, nutritional guidance, and growth monitoring to build a strong immune system and foster a lifelong bond of trust with our clinic. These packages include education for pet owners on training, behavior, and home care.

We administer Core Vaccinations (Rabies, Distemper, and Parvo) as part of our essential protective care to safeguard your pet from highly contagious, potentially fatal diseases. These vaccines are critical for public health compliance and are strongly recommended by veterinarians to ensure community safety and individual pet protection. Visit us to stay current on your pet’s vaccination schedule.

We provide annual Heartworm Testing & Prevention services to safeguard your pet from this deadly parasite transmitted by mosquitoes. Heartworm disease can lead to severe heart and lung damage, but effective prevention is simple and affordable. We partner with pet owners to create a year-round prevention plan that includes testing, medication, and educational support to keep your pet safe.

Our team offers Flea & Tick Prevention treatments tailored to your pet’s needs to eliminate parasites and prevent secondary diseases like Lyme or Ehrlichia. We provide monthly preventative options, environmental treatments, and guidance on symptoms to watch for (e.g., itching, lethargy). Protecting your pet starts with consistent prevention and regular check-ups with our veterinarians.

We offer Microchipping & Registration to ensure your pet can be safely returned if lost. Our microchips are permanently implanted and registered in national databases, linking your contact information to your pet’s unique ID. This is a one-time, painless procedure that provides lifelong security. We’ll also guide you on how to keep registration details updated for maximum effectiveness.

Our veterinarians provide expert Nutritional Counseling & Weight Management to help your pet achieve an optimal, healthy weight through personalized diet plans and feeding strategies. Whether your pet is underweight, overweight, or needs dietary adjustments for health conditions, we’ll work with you to create a sustainable plan that supports their longevity. We also offer recommendations for premium pet foods and supplements.

We offer Behavioral Counseling to address common issues such as aggression, anxiety, barking, or house training problems. Our approach combines evidence-based techniques, environmental modifications, and owner education to foster a calmer, happier pet. Should complex cases require additional support, we may refer you to specialized behaviorists or trainers for comprehensive care.

Our clinic performs In-House Bloodwork (CBC and Chemistry Panels) using advanced laboratory equipment to provide quick, accurate results for diagnostic purposes. These tests help us monitor organ function, detect infections, diseases (e.g., diabetes, kidney/ liver issues), and tailor treatment plans promptly. Fast results mean less waiting time for you and faster relief for your pet.

We conduct Urinalysis to screen for urinary tract infections, kidney disease, diabetes, and other conditions that may not have obvious symptoms but require early intervention. This simple test provides critical insights into your pet’s overall health, allowing us to diagnose issues like crystals, blood, or infections that may affect their quality of life. Regular screenings are key in preventive care.

Our Fecal Testing service identifies intestinal parasites (e.g., giardia, worms) and ensures your pet’s gastrointestinal health is protected. Regular stool checks are especially important for puppies, seniors, and pets with compromised immune systems. We use reliable diagnostic methods and provide guidance on deworming medications or environmental hygiene as needed.

Our Tooth Extractions service addresses severe dental issues like fractured teeth, irreversible decay, or advanced periodontal disease that cannot be saved. We perform extractions under anesthesia with strict sterile protocols to ensure your pet’s comfort and safety. Post-procedure care instructions will be provided to aid recovery and prevent infection.

We treat Periodontal Disease through scaling, root planing, and antibiotics to combat gum inflammation and bone loss in pets. Left untreated, periodontal disease can lead to chronic pain, systemic infections, and even heart or kidney disease. Our treatments aim to preserve oral health, extend your pet’s quality of life, and reduce discomfort.

As part of our At-Home Dental Care Education, we equip pet owners with tools like daily brushing techniques, dental treats, and dietary recommendations to maintain their pet’s oral health between professional cleanings. Preventive care at home reduces the buildup of harmful bacteria and helps detect early signs of dental issues. We’ll demonstrate proper methods and provide tailored advice based on your pet’s needs.

We provide Spay & Neuter Surgery to reduce overpopulation, prevent reproductive issues (e.g., cancers, infections), and curb unwanted behaviors like roaming. Our procedures are performed by skilled surgeons in a sterilized environment, with monitoring to ensure your pet’s comfort and swift recovery. Early spay/neuter is recommended but can be done safely at any life stage.

For Emergency Stabilization, our team provides immediate life-saving interventions for critical conditions, such as trauma, severe poisoning, or respiratory distress. We stabilize patients before advanced diagnostics, offering IV fluids, pain management, oxygen therapy, and continuous monitoring to bridge the gap until deeper treatment or hospitalization can be administered.

We offer Hospitalization & 24-Hour Monitoring for pets requiring intensive care after surgery, chronic illness management, or severe conditions. Our advanced facilities include IV drip stations, oxygen cages, and dedicated medical staff to track vitals, administer medications, and ensure your pet’s comfort during recovery. Family updates are provided to keep you informed.

We provide Oxygen Therapy for pets experiencing respiratory distress, anesthesia recovery, or chronic lung conditions (e.g., heartworm disease). Oxygen supplementation is administered through specialized cages or masks, carefully monitored to ensure your pet receives the right oxygen levels for comfort and safety. This life-saving measure helps during emergencies and critical recovery periods.

Our IV Fluid Therapy supports hydration, circulation, and organ function in pets dealing with illness, surgery recovery, or dehydration. Fluids are tailored based on your pet’s needs—from electrolyte balancing to fluid resuscitation—administered by our veterinary team using sterile techniques. Close monitoring ensures optimal response and recovery.

We offer Pain Management through medications, therapies, or advanced techniques to improve your pet’s quality of life during illness, post-surgery, or chronic conditions like arthritis. Our clinicians design personalized plans that may include oral analgesics, injections, or alternative therapies like laser treatment and acupuncture. Pain relief is our priority to enhance mobility and comfort.

If your pet ingests Poison or Toxins, we provide immediate treatment, including induction of vomiting, activated charcoal, IV fluids, or antidotes as needed. Our goal is to minimize absorption of toxins and support organ function while monitoring for complications. We strongly recommend keeping toxic substances (like human medications or plants) out of reach and having our 24-hour emergency line on hand.

We offer Medical Grooming for pets with specific health needs, such as diabetic shaves (to avoid urinary stones), sanitary clip-ons, or grooming adjustments for mobility issues. Our certified technicians work closely with veterinarians to ensure comfort and safety while maintaining your pet’s hygiene. Let us address these needs during your next visit.

As part of Medical Grooming, we perform Sanitary Shaves to prevent urinary tract infections, fecal matter buildup, or other hygiene-related issues in pets that groom themselves inefficiently. This procedure is especially beneficial for male dogs prone to complications like prostate problems or perianal hernias. We’ll tailor shave frequency based on your pet’s anatomy and health status.

We provide Nail Trimming & Dremeling to maintain healthy paws and prevent uncomfortable overgrowth, fractures, or painful conditions like pododermatitis. Our technicians use high-precision tools to avoid quick damage while ensuring a comfortable experience for your pet. Regular trims contribute to better mobility and overall well-being.

Our clinic offers Anal Gland Expression to relieve impacted or infected anal glands, which can cause significant discomfort, scooting, or licking. This quick procedure is performed by trained technicians in a non-invasive manner, and we’ll advise on prevention strategies for chronic issues. Chronic problems may require dietary changes or manual expression at home.

We utilize Cold Laser Therapy for pain relief, inflammation reduction, and accelerated healing in conditions like joint pain, wounds, or postsurgical recovery. Laser therapy is non-invasive, drug-free, and promotes cellular regeneration by penetrating deep tissues. Sessions are typically quick, with noticeable improvements often seen within a few treatments.

Our Physical Therapy & Rehabilitation services address musculoskeletal injuries or degenerative diseases through targeted exercises, massages, underwater treadmills (hydrotherapy), and therapeutic tools. We assess each pet’s mobility and design a plan to restore function, enhance strength, and improve quality of life. Rehabilitation often follows orthopedic surgery or chronic conditions like arthritis.
