Vaccinations
We provide core and optional vaccines for dogs and cats, including AAHA-recommended distemper, hepatitis, parvovirus, rabies, and feline distemper. Puppies and kittens receive initial vaccines by eight weeks of age. Risk-based vaccinations like Bordetella, leptospirosis, and Lyme disease are tailored to lifestyle factors. Annual wellness exams ensure timely immunizations for adult pets.
Dental Care
Our dental services include routine exams, cleaning under anesthesia, and home hygiene education. Oral health assessments detect infections or gum disease during wellness visits. We address tooth decay, gum inflammation, and other dental issues to prevent systemic health problems linked to poor oral hygiene in pets.
Spay/Neuter
We perform spaying and neutering to control pet overpopulation while offering health benefits like reduced cancer risks and behavioral improvements. The procedure prevents euthanasia of millions of unwanted pets annually. Clients receive guidance on post-operative care to ensure smooth recovery for their pets.
Surgical Procedures
Common surgeries include tooth extractions, skin mass removal, bladder stone treatment, and cancer interventions. Pre-surgical laser use and post-op MLS Laser Therapy minimize inflammation and pain. Veterinarians explain procedures and recovery expectations, emphasizing patient comfort and successful outcomes for complex conditions.
Senior Wellness
Bi-annual exams for pets aged seven and older detect kidney disease, heart conditions, diabetes, and mobility issues early. We offer discounted senior wellness lab packages through Idexx to monitor age-related risks. Tailored preventive strategies improve quality of life for aging pets with individualized treatment and lifestyle adjustments.
