Dental Services
Our dental services include comprehensive exams, professional cleanings, extractions, and digital x-rays to prevent periodontal disease. We emphasize home care with products like Maxi Guard gel and Oravet chews. Regular dental checkups ensure your pet's oral health, reducing risks of systemic infections and improving overall well-being through early intervention.
Spays & Neuters
We perform spay and neuter surgeries to promote animal health and reduce overpopulation. The procedures address reproductive health, behavioral issues, and long-term wellness. Our team also handles mass removals and laceration repairs, ensuring safe, stress-free experiences for pets and owners.
Radiology
In-house digital radiography provides immediate imaging for diagnosing fractures, internal injuries, and organ abnormalities. This technology enables quick, accurate assessments without referring patients elsewhere. Radiology supports surgical planning, chronic disease monitoring, and emergency care decisions.
Euthanasia Services
We offer compassionate euthanasia services with options for owner presence or private arrangements. Our technicians ensure pets are sedated for comfort, while respecting owners' emotional needs. We coordinate cremation options, including private or communal services, through West Coast Memorial for dignified aftercare.
Vaccination Programs
Our vaccination protocols use ULTRA vaccines for effective, low-volume protection against common diseases. Preventive plans address puppies, seniors, and pets with lifestyle-specific risks. Vaccinations are paired with wellness exams to assess overall health and tailor immunization schedules for lifelong immunity.
