Acupuncture
Certified veterinary acupuncture treatments help manage pain and improve wellness in animals. We use sterile needles and electroacupuncture to stimulate nerve pathways, reducing pain and inflammation. This service benefits animals with chronic conditions, arthritis, or recovery needs, offering a non-invasive treatment option alongside traditional veterinary care.
Penn Hip Screening
We conduct Penn Hip screenings to assess hip dysplasia risk in dogs as young as 16 weeks. This diagnostic service uses specialized X-rays and breed-specific measurements to predict arthritis likelihood. Early detection allows for preventive care planning and informed breeding decisions to improve canine joint health across generations.
Low-Stress Handling
Our practice implements specialized handling techniques to minimize anxiety during veterinary visits. We offer 'Happy Visits' for acclimation and use fear-free methods for all patients. This approach benefits pets with previous negative experiences, ensuring more accurate medical assessments and improved long-term healthcare compliance through positive associations.
