Preventative Health Care Programs:

The importance of a routine visit is immeasurable. Among other things, it will help to ensure:

• Early diagnosis of health or behavioral  problems
• Infectious disease management and prevention
• Highest level of immune readiness
• Heartworm, flea, other parasite control

Our annual pet health maintenance package includes a thorough physical examination of your pet's coat and skin, eyes and ears, nose and throat, mouth, teeth and gums, heart and lungs, legs and paws, abdomen and gastrointestinal system, urogenital system, weight and diet.

If your animal is found to be healthy, vaccinations will be administered.  Please contact us for information about the specific vaccines that we recommend. A microscopic examination of the feces for intestinal parasites (such as hookworms, ascarids, whipworms, tapeworms, giardia and coccidia) is also included.  Canines receive an annual blood screen to detect the presence of heartworm disease. Additional health screening procedures may be performed depending on your pets' age and other medical issues. Click here to better understand the importance of  wellness health check-ups.

 Surgical/Anesthesia Services:

Our state-of-the-art surgical suite is equipped for the performance of a wide variety of procedures. In addition to performing pre-operative blood screening, other screening tests may be recommended in order to determine whether the patient is a good candidate for anesthesia. The patient’s vital signs (blood pressure, heart rate, respiration rate, temperature, oxygen saturation) are monitored during anesthesia with the most modern machinery. We utilize the safest available anesthetics to provide that extra margin of safety, especially for our older or high risk patients. Fluid therapy is administered to aid in flushing the patient's system of residual anesthetic and to keep the patient hydrated.  All patients recover in a supervised environment, where the patient is kept safe and comfortable. We then design a pain management plan to fit the patient's post-operative needs.

Dental Care:

Our dental services include ultrasonic teeth scaling to remove tarter and plaque, polishing, dental X-ray, tooth extractions and oral surgery.  Click here for detailed information on and pictures of what is involved in a professional dental cleaning.  Ask us about veterinary-approved foods, treats and special sealants that are proven to slow the progression of tarter build-up.

• Scaling and Polishing - Veterinarians use similar instruments as human dentists to remove plaque and calculus from your pet’s teeth. To smooth out any scratches in the tooth enamel, polishing with a special paste is also recommended.
• Fluoride and Sealants - The application of an anti-plaque substance, such as a fluoride treatment and a barrier sealant can help strengthen and desensitize teeth as well as decrease future plaque.
• Post cleaning examination and diagnostics - We examine individual teeth for mobility, fractures, malocclusion, and periodontal disease.

Supervised Boarding/Hospitalization:
