New Pet Exams
Our new patient exams establish baseline health metrics while introducing pets and owners to our practice. We review medical histories and create customized wellness plans based on age, breed, and lifestyle factors. Our doctors provide age-appropriate vaccination schedules and parasite prevention recommendations during these introductory visits.
Dental Cleanings
We perform comprehensive dental procedures under general anesthesia using ultrasonic scaling technology. Our services include subgingival tartar removal, dental polishing, and extraction when medically necessary. We emphasize home care education to prevent periodontal disease and its systemic complications.
Soft Tissue Surgery
Dr. Holly specializes in soft tissue surgical procedures with strict aseptic techniques. We offer spays/neuters, mass removals, and wound repairs using modern anesthetic protocols. Pre-operative blood testing ensures patient safety while post-operative pain management supports comfortable recoveries.

Our on-site laboratory provides rapid diagnostic results for bloodwork, urinalysis, and parasite screening. We utilize advanced equipment for complete blood counts, chemistry panels, and infectious disease testing. This capability enables timely treatment decisions for critical cases.
