Pet Dentistry
Our comprehensive dental services include oral examinations, professional cleanings, and advanced treatments for periodontal disease. Utilizing dental x-rays, we identify hidden issues below the gumline to prevent systemic health complications. Our team provides extractions, pain management, and home care guidance to maintain optimal oral health for pets.
Diagnostic Imaging
We offer digital radiology services for rapid diagnosis of internal conditions. Our advanced imaging technology enables assessment of musculoskeletal, cardiovascular, and abdominal issues. With access to IDEXX Laboratories testing, we perform comprehensive bloodwork and fecal analysis to identify underlying health concerns through both in-house and external diagnostics.
Surgical Procedures
Our surgical services include spay/neuter, soft tissue procedures, and wound repairs. We follow AVMA guidelines with pre-anesthetic bloodwork, continuous monitoring, and multi-modal pain management. Each patient receives intravenous fluid therapy and personalized recovery plans for optimal post-operative outcomes.
Dermatology Services
We diagnose and manage skin conditions through allergy testing with IDEXX Laboratories. Our approach includes elimination diets for food sensitivities and customized treatment plans for environmental allergens. We provide specialized shampoos, hydrolyzed diets, and injectable medications to address both acute symptoms and long-term allergy management.
Laser Therapy
Our non-invasive laser therapy treats arthritis, skin conditions, and post-surgical recovery. This technology reduces inflammation and promotes healing without medication side effects. The treatment protocol is customized for each patient's specific condition while providing a comfortable experience for animals during sessions.
