Our Services

At Dewitt Veterinary Medical Center, we offer a variety of services to cater to the needs of your pets. These services include wellness exams, vaccinations, dental health, surgery, and sick visits.

Wellness exams are an essential part of maintaining your pet's health. These routine physical exams allow us to monitor your pet's health and address any questions or concerns you may have regarding their health. During a physical exam, your pet's history will be reviewed, and a snout to tail exam will be performed. We recommend routine physicals annually, and as your animal ages, more frequent visits may be necessary to monitor aging conditions more closely.

Vaccinations are a crucial part of protecting your pet against highly contagious, potentially deadly diseases. We take into consideration your animal's lifestyle, age, and vaccine history to determine the proper vaccine schedule to help keep your pet healthy.

Dental health plays an important role in maintaining optimal health. During a physical exam, we assess your pet's dental health. If dental disease is seen during the exam, a routine dental cleaning will be recommended. Dental procedures on animals, unlike humans, need to be done under general anesthesia for the safety of both your animal and the staff. A full dental exam performed under general anesthesia also allows further investigation of dental health. During a routine cleaning, large pieces of tartar are removed with dental forceps, ultrasonic scaling is then performed on all teeth (both inside and outer surface), measurements of periodontal depth are measured, and all teeth are polished. Any extraction or other required procedures are then performed. Dr. Bumgardner takes a special interest in dental health and procedures. Quite often, following dental procedures on pets with advanced dental disease, clients report an increased level of energy and interaction with their pet in a positive way.

We offer surgical services ranging from routine spay and neuters to more specialized surgeries. We are lucky in our location to have multiple board-certified surgeons in the area. If your pet's surgical requirements are better suited for a board-certified surgeon, we will work with you in the referral process, helping your animal to receive the top level of care.

If your pet is under the weather, we understand the stress that comes with it. Our in-house laboratory allows us to begin diagnostics on the spot, yielding quick results. That combined with our on-site pharmacy often creates one-stop care to efficiently help your pet get on the road to recovery.
