Services
Vaccines
We provide core and elective pet vaccinations starting at 6 weeks of age. Services follow state requirements and disease prevention protocols. Our programs protect against distemper, rabies, and other pathogens through age-appropriate schedules for puppies, kittens, and adult animals.
Wellness Panels
Our diagnostic blood work includes complete blood counts and chemistry profiles for early disease detection. Testing packages evaluate organ function, thyroid performance, and infectious disease markers. We recommend annual screenings to monitor senior pets' health and identify hidden conditions.
Surgical Services
Modern surgical suite handles procedures from spays/neuters to complex soft tissue operations. We use absorbable sutures when possible and administer IV fluids during high-risk cases. Pre-anesthetic blood testing ensures patient safety during operations under monitored anesthesia.
Laser Therapy
Non-invasive treatment reduces inflammation and arthritis pain in pets. Our Class IV laser system delivers targeted therapy for post-surgical recovery and chronic conditions. Each 15-minute session uses light energy to stimulate cellular regeneration without medication side effects.
Diagnostic Testing
In-house facilities perform fecal exams, urinalysis, and bloodwork within the hospital. For specialized needs, we partner with reference labs for advanced diagnostics. Complete evaluations combine digital x-rays, EKG monitoring, and microscopic analysis during urgent and routine cases.
