Wellness Checks
Annual and bi-annual wellness exams detect health issues early. Our comprehensive physical exams assess weight, organ function, and mobility. We create preventive care plans tailored to each pet's life stage, including senior wellness screenings for pets over seven years old.
Dental Care
Preventive dental cleanings remove plaque and tartar buildup. We perform oral exams during routine visits and offer professional scaling, polishing, and extractions under anesthesia. Our team provides home care guidance to maintain oral health between visits.
Laser Therapy
Non-invasive treatment reduces inflammation and pain from arthritis, injuries, and post-surgical recovery. Laser therapy promotes tissue repair and improves mobility. Each session delivers targeted light energy to affected areas for enhanced healing.
Diagnostic Testing
In-house lab processes blood work, fecal exams, and disease screenings within minutes. We test for heartworm, Lyme disease, and other tick-borne illnesses. Advanced diagnostics include digital radiography and ultrasound for accurate diagnosis.
Acupuncture
Traditional Chinese medicine for chronic pain, neurological conditions, and organ dysfunction. Sterile needles stimulate energy flow and release natural painkillers. Treatments complement conventional medicine for conditions like arthritis and digestive disorders.
