Diagnostic and Therapeutic Services

We stress the importance of an annual physical examination. Regular check-ups and preventive care can help alleviate serious health problems. We offer a wide range of veterinary services to keep your companions feeling their best.

Comprehensive Physical Examinations: evaluation of the heart, lungs, abdomen, skin, eyes, ears, nose and throat, teeth and gums, legs and paws, gastrointestinal system, urogenital system, weight, and dietary needs.

Puppy/Kitten Vaccinations: We get babies off to the right start with puppy/kitten packages to ensure your new one is properly vaccinated, de-wormed and examined.

Annual Vaccinations: Our all-inclusive core vaccines for dogs include: Rabies, Distemper, Hepatitis, Parainfluenza, Parvo, Leptosporosis, Bordatella plus fecal and heartworm testing. Our all-inclusive core vaccines for cats include: Rabies, Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis, Calicivirus feline leukemia, Panleukopenia plus fecal testing.

Parasite Control: Intestinal parasites that are commonly found in dogs and cats not only can cause symptoms and disease in animals, but can also be transmitted to humans! We practice routine deworming as recommended by the Center for Disease Control. As part of our twice yearly wellness plan, your dog will be tested for intestinal parasites and dewormed every 6 months.

Prescriptions: We carry our most commonly prescribed medications in-house. Occasionally, we will prescribe medications that are not in our inventory. In these instances, we will either special order the medication for you, or call in a prescription to a local pharmacy. Medications and prescriptions are available for patients with a current physical exam, for known health problems.

Dental Care: We will check your pet’s teeth and gums for signs of tartar/plaque, gingivitis, periodontitis, worn or broken teeth, etc. Dental cleanings are available, and we will give you tips on preventing dental disease.

Allergy Treatment: Allergies can be difficult to diagnose and treat. We have a complex plan of attack to determine the best treatment for relief of your pet’s allergies.

Diagnostic Testing: We offer in-house laboratory testing for Complete Blood Count (CBC), Chemistry profile, Electrolyte profile, Fecal testing, Urinalysis, Electrocardiogram (ECG), blood pressure reading, Radiographs (x-ray), Ultrasound, Cytology, and many other services. We also have the ability to send out samples for testing should it be needed.

Heartworm Treatment: Our heartworm treatment follows the guidelines of the American Heartworm Society. The typical treatment is a 5-step process. We will evaluate your pet’s heart, lungs, and labwork for changes associated with advanced heartworm disease. Animals receive pain management and follow-up care during treatment.

Hospitalization/Treatment: We offer hospitalization and treatment for a variety of medical/surgical conditions. We pay particular attention to pain management, fluid, antibiotic, and nutritional therapy for your pet. Our clinic offers open-visitation during regular operating hours.

Microchipping: We microchip pets with the “Home Again” microchip which allows identification of your pet and you as its owner should your pet become lost. With registration to the Home Again program, you now have access to a 24-hour vet hotline, an All-Points alert that will inform area veterinarians, shelters, and rescue groups that your pet is missing, and an ID card that will carry your pet’s medical information.

Senior Pet Care: We offer comprehensive testing to evaluate the health of senior pets, with a goal of prevention and maintenance of conditions associated with aging.

Compassionate Euthanasia: This is always a difficult decision, but, unfortunately, necessary in certain cases. We promise to treat your pet respectfully during this process. We always sedate patients prior to euthanization, which ensures a peaceful transition. Clients may stay with their pet during the procedure, but this is not required. Our compassionate staff will comfort you and your pet. After euthanasia, we offer communal cremation, private cremation (you will keep your pet’s ashes), or you may take your pet’s remains with you for burial.

Referrals: Should your pet need a specialist, such as an opthalmologist, cardiologist or other specialty, will see that you are referred to a hospital that will give your pet the same special care that we would.
