Services
Pet Wellness Exams
Annual wellness exams detect health issues early through comprehensive physical exams, vaccinations, and lab work. Our preventive approach includes tailored care plans for dogs, cats, and exotic pets. Regular checkups establish health baselines, monitor chronic conditions, and maintain optimal pet wellness through targeted nutritional and behavioral assessments.
Veterinary Vaccinations
Core and non-core vaccinations protect pets against infectious diseases like rabies, distemper, and Lyme disease. We develop customized vaccination schedules based on age, lifestyle, and health status. Our protocols follow AAHA guidelines while addressing specific risk factors for cats and dogs in Will County.
Dental Care
Professional dental cleanings and exams prevent periodontal disease through scaling, polishing, and oral cancer screenings. We use digital X-rays for diagnosing subgingival issues while providing at-home care guidance. Regular dental maintenance helps prevent systemic infections affecting pets' hearts and kidneys.
Orthopedic Surgery
Specialized surgical procedures treat ligament tears, fractures, and joint conditions using advanced imaging and implants. Our ACL repairs and fracture management follow strict anesthesia protocols with pre-operative bloodwork. Post-surgical rehabilitation plans ensure proper healing and mobility restoration for active pets.
Pet Boarding
Climate-controlled boarding facilities accommodate dogs and cats with personalized attention. We provide three daily walks for dogs and monitored socialization while maintaining strict vaccination requirements. Medical boarding options available with immediate access to veterinary care for pets needing special attention during owners' absences.
