• Comprehensive Examination
  This is where physical exams twice a year can help. Remember  pets age so much quicker than we do, so one year is equal to several years in a human.

Illness Treatment

• Parasites Treatment and Control
  Heartworm is not only a disease for dogs. Cats can get Heartworm. Learn more by visiting KnowHeartWorms.org or The Feline Heartworm Society.
• Pain Management
  Every pet scheduled for surgery is given a complete preoperative examination by the surgeon. Laboratory tests are evaluated if indicated.  Pain relief medication is administered and an intravenous catheter is placed.  Anesthesia induction is started to make your pet feel like taking a nap. Anesthetic gas and oxygen are delivered through an endotracheal tube.  Patient monitoring is non stop in several ways. First we have a trained technician monitoring anesthetic levels along with the heart and respiratory rates. Monitoring machines record the blood pressure, electrocardiogram, pulse, blood oxygen level, temperature and respirations. IV fluids are given during the procedure to maintain hydration.

Chronic Condition Treatment

  Pets are enjoying longer life spans than ever before partly because of better nutrition,  medications, vaccines and advances in medicine and surgery.  Regular check ups are a vital component to your pets well being. Annual pet exams help establish a baseline for your pet’s weight, temperature, heart and respiratory rates and many other things.  A complete nose to tail exam is done to cover all the bases since our patients do not always tell us where it hurts. Laboratory testing of the blood, urine and feces help to give a look on the inside of your pet for early signs of many diseases such as diabetes, kidney and thyroid disease, hormone imbalances, infections and many more.
• Kidney Disease Treatment
• Periodontal Disease Treatment
  Halitosis or bad breath is one of the most common results of gingivitis and periodontal disease. Periodontal disease is a number one cause of infectious disease in pets. It affects all the supporting structures of the teeth. Bacteria and salivary proteins stick to the surface of the tooth and form a biofilm that is the beginning of tartar build up on the teeth. Bacteria can now have easy access to the blood stream and then in turn to vital organs such as the heart, liver and kidneys.

General Pet Care

• Senior Pet Care
  Pets age much faster than people. Our pets have unique needs that may require additional care to keep them comfortable.  Many diseases mask themselves in subtle ways that may  make it appear that it is just getting old. A geriatric age is different for cats and dogs. It also varies by breed and size of dog. Generally, the larger the dog, the quicker it ages. So a Great Dane may be considered a geriatric a 4 or 5 years and a Chihuahua may not reach that until he is 8 or 9 years. Most cats may be considered middle age by 7 or 8 years.
