Services
Wellness Exams
Our comprehensive wellness exams detect early signs of health issues through physical assessments of heart, lungs, teeth, and skin. We recommend annual exams for adult pets and bi-annual visits for seniors. These preventive checkups help identify conditions like dental disease, obesity, and organ dysfunction before they become serious health threats.
Surgical Procedures
We perform routine and advanced soft tissue surgeries including spay/neuter, mass removals, and wound repairs. All procedures are outpatient with detailed post-op instructions. Our surgical care includes complimentary nail trims and pre-surgical consultations to ensure optimal outcomes for your pet's specific needs.
Preventive Dental Care
Our dental program prevents oral disease through annual assessments and professional cleanings. We address plaque buildup, tartar removal, and tooth extractions when necessary. Regular dental care protects against systemic infections that can affect heart, kidney, and liver health in pets.
Pet Health Certificates
We issue USDA-certified health certificates for domestic and international pet travel. Our staff assists with documentation requirements and processing timelines, which can take 2-4 months depending on destination. We provide necessary rabies certifications and vaccine records for airline and country compliance.
Urgent Pet Care
We offer limited daily urgent care appointments for non-life-threatening conditions. Available on first-come basis starting at 8:00 AM, these visits address minor injuries, infections, and sudden illnesses. For critical emergencies after hours, we recommend Eastern Carolina Veterinary Referral in Wilmington.
