Services

  • Surgical Procedures
    Surgical procedures in our hospital are performed under strict sterility standards. These include sterile patient preparation as well as sterile instruments and the use of caps, masks, gloves, and gowns. We constantly monitor the patient's heart rate, respiratory rate, blood pressure, temperature, and use pulse oximetry. Surgical patients are given pain medication before, during, and after each procedure for the comfort of the pet.
  • Orthopedic surgery
    We perform a wide range of orthopedic surgeries. These include routine fracture repairs as well as Anterior Cruciate repair and patella luxation repair. 
  • Radiographs
    We use one of the most powerful conventional X-ray units in the industry. This allows us to perform both routine and specialized X-ray studies as required. The use of an automatic film processor greatly enhances the quality and readability of our X-ray films
  • Ultrasound/telemedicine
    Our practice uses the most up to date digital ultrasound equipment available. This allows us to assess internal organs without painful surgery or hazardous X-rays.  We can also use ultrasound to determine pregnancy in both dogs and cats.
  • Dental cleanings/extractions
    We offer and encourage regular professional dental cleaning, and our state of the art dental operatory utilizes air driven dental equipment similar to your own dentist.
  • On-site laboratory
    Speedy laboratory results are essential for treating critical care cases and our on-site hematology and chemistry lab equipment provides quick results. Pre-Anesthetic blood testing is an important part of our pre-surgical workup, and on-site results allow us to immediately assess your pet's state of internal health, assuring us that they will be a good candidate for surgery.
  • Pharmacy
    Our on-site pharmacy not only stocks the drugs and medications required to treat your pet's illness, but also a full range of heartworm, flea and tick prevention products. We also carry vitamins, minerals, nutritional supplements and prescription diets. Any pharmaceuticals that we do not have in stock can usually be ordered for next day delivery.
  • Preventive health care
    We recommend annual physical exams along with blood profiles to help assure that our patients remain healthy. In the event that we detect abnormalities, it allows us to start corrective treatment early in the process.  The medical needs of pets change dramatically as they become senior citizens and our senior wellness program adds years to their life and life to their years.
