Services
Vaccinations
Our vaccination program protects pets against preventable diseases like rabies, distemper, and parvovirus. We create customized schedules for puppies, kittens, and adult animals. Vaccinations combined with annual exams ensure early disease detection and prevention.
Annual Physical Exams
Comprehensive health assessments detect early signs of illness during yearly checkups. These exams include parasite screening, weight management, and preventative care planning. Early intervention helps maintain long-term pet health and wellness.
Dental Care
Professional dental cleanings and oral exams prevent periodontal disease. We treat dental infections, perform extractions when needed, and educate on home care. Maintaining oral health prevents systemic issues affecting heart and kidney function.
Surgery
Routine and specialized surgical procedures use modern anesthetic protocols for safety. We perform spays, neuters, mass removals, and soft tissue surgeries. Complex cases receive referrals to board-certified specialists in St. Louis.
Geriatric Exams
Tailored health assessments for aging pets detect age-related conditions early. These exams include mobility evaluations, organ function tests, and pain management strategies. Our senior care program helps maintain quality of life for older animals.
