Small Animal Services
Yearly exam:
Because of the shorter lifespan of our pets, we stress
the importance of an annual physical examination.
Thorough check-ups and preventative care can help
alleviate serious health problems. Our hospital will
send you a reminder card in the mail when the time for
your pet's physical is approaching. At the yearly exam
your pet will be thoroughly examined by one of our
doctors and brought up to date on all vaccinations, as
well as treated for any other minor issues that may have
come up over the course of the year.
Diagnostic Services: Our hospital is equipped to process
many different diagnostic tests, including fecal
evaluations, serum chemistry, hematology, serology,
parasite testing, urinalysis, cytology, blood testing
for diseases such as heartworm and feline leukemia, and
complete blood count. We also utilize commercial
veterinary laboratories for specialized diagnostics and
consultations. With our state-of-the-art x-ray,
ultrasound, ECG, and pulse oximetry equipment, we can
more quickly and accurately diagnose your pet's specific
problem.
Surgical Services: Our surgical suite provides for the
performance of a wide variety of surgical procedures for
small animals, including routine spays and neuters,
orthopedic, exploratory, and emergency surgery when
needed. We also provide excellent post-operative care
and instructions and are always available, should you
have questions about your pet's recovery or post-op
care.
Anesthesia: We utilize the safest available anesthetics
to provide an extra margin of safety, especially for our
older or high-risk patients. Using the most modern
equipment, the patient's vital signs are monitored
during all anesthetic procedures.
Internal medicine consults: We offer in-hospital
referrals to an internal medicine specialist who
performs ultrasounds, endoscopic procedures and helps us
with the diagnosis of more complicated cases
Dentistry: Our dental services include teeth cleaning and
polishing, tooth extractions and minor oral surgery.

Pharmacy: We maintain a complete inventory of
pharmaceuticals, vitamins, prescription shampoos, flea
and tick control products and heartworm preventatives to

programs for the specific needs of your pet and your own
particular environmental situation. We will review with
you the best ways to control fleas in your house, in
your yard and on your pet.
Dietary and Behavioral Counseling: We will provide
guidance regarding your pet's nutritional needs for each
life stage, including dietary requirements for growth,
weight maintenance and performance. We
have several
prescription diets that encourage weight gain or loss,
and keep these foods stocked regularly in our pet food
department. We can also provide advice regarding the
correction of problems such as excessive barking,
chewing, spraying, scratching, digging, house soiling,
and aggression.
Boarding: We provide pet boarding as a service to our
clients. All boarders receive personal attention from
our caring staff. Pets may be dropped off and picked up
during regular business hours Monday through Saturday.
