Services
Annual Exams
Comprehensive physical examinations for cats of all ages. Our veterinarians check skin, teeth, eyes, ears, heart, and lungs while reviewing medical history. Senior cats receive biannual recommendations due to accelerated aging, with thorough documentation of any changes in health status.
Feline Dentistry
Complete dental prophylaxis including scaling, polishing, and radiographic imaging under anesthesia. We address tooth resorption, periodontal disease, and perform necessary extractions while maintaining strict pain management protocols throughout the procedure.
Vaccinations
Customized vaccination programs using non-adjuvanted formulas to minimize risks. Core vaccines include rabies, RCP, and feline leukemia protection with personalized risk assessments for lifestyle-specific immunization decisions.
Bloodwork Lab
In-house hematology and chemistry analyzers provide same-day results for complete blood counts, serum profiles, urinalysis, and fecal exams. This enables rapid diagnosis and treatment planning for various health conditions.
Surgical Services
Elective and emergency surgical procedures with pre-anesthetic evaluations. Includes spaying/neutering, dental extractions, and soft tissue surgeries performed with advanced monitoring equipment and multi-modal pain management strategies.
