Preventive Medicine

Pets today are sharing a much greater part in peoples' lives.  As their lives are accellerated when compared with humans, proactive, regular, preventative medicine is important to promote the highest quality and length of life for your four-legged family members.  Click here to learn more about our wellness programs.


Laboratory

The hospital has recently upgraded it's in-house laboratory equipment.  We offer:

  • accurate blood chemistry determinations for a range of situations from pre-anesthetic screenings to emergency cases, providing results in less than 30 minutes;
  • immediate results on a full array of immunologic tests for many diseases such as Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV), Feline Leukemia Virus (FeLV) and Canine Heartworm disease;
  • a new ultrasonic blood pressure screening device and a new electrocardiograph machine, which function both for diagnostic evaluations and for anesthetic monitoring;
  • expanded urinalysis capabilities; and
  • updated microscopic cytology.

We also utilize an extensive professional laboratory system, so that our clients have no need to make trips elsewhere when advanced tests are necessary.

 


Radiology

Our on-site, modern X-ray equipment provides high quality radiographs to aid in the diagnosis of many disorders.   All of our x-rays are regularly reviewed by a veterinary radiologist.


Pharmacy

Our pharmacy is fully stocked for the convienence of our clients, with both prescription and over-the-counter medicines available.  We carry a vast array of modern medicines and strive to offer the lowest price possible.

We offer shipping for chronic or ongoing treatments.  "Bulk discount" pricing is also available for many chronic medications.


Surgery

We perform all surgeries in a dedicated surgical suite, equipped with top-of-the-line surgical instruments, electrocautery, heated table, assisted ventilation capabilities and modern anesthetic monitoring.  We strongly believe in pain management tailored to each animal's needs.


Anesthesia

We utilize the safest available anesthetics to provide that extra margin of safety, especially for our older or high risk patients. Using the most modern equipment, the patient's vital signs are monitored during all anesthetic procedures.


Dentistry

Dental care is an important aspect in the health of any animal.  We continue to invest time and resources every year to offer the highest quality oral care possible.  Screenings are performed with each examination and a "Dental Scale and Polish" package is offered at discounted pricing - just because we believe in it so strongly. 


Boarding

Caring for your pets while you're away is important to us, and we see to it that each one receives individual attention and love.  All animals are under medical supervision during their stay and must be vaccinated and flea-free.  Click here to learn more about our pet hotel and doggie day care.
