Wellness Exams
Wellness exams, annual exams, routine exams, are important for your pet to live a long and healthy life. A Wellness Exam consists of one of our veterinarians checking your pet over from nose to tail. They will look in the
ears with an otoscope, check the eyes with an ophthalmoscope, listen to heart and lungs with their stethoscope and check lymph nodes as well as for any other lumps or bumps. These exams are for pets that are not having any health related issues, that the pet owner is aware of and are generally just routine physicals.
Sometimes during a Wellness exam our veterinarians do find an issue. If this happens, and the exam becomes more of a focused exam due to the issue, it can become a sick exam. Read More

Sick Exams
Sick exams are when your pet has an issue. It may be skin, ears, eyes, urinary, upset stomach or diarrhea. All of these are important and need the attention of a veterinarian. However, if your pet has an eye issue, and not knowing
exactly what is going on, it is recommended that your pet be seen as soon as possible or within 24 hrs to prevent loss of eye sight.
If your pet is experiencing vomiting or diarrhea, be prepared to give a brief history: How old is your pet? Is your pet up-to-date on vaccines? Could they have ingested something they should not have? Have they gotten into a potential toxin? How long has this been going on?
If you are scheduling your pet for an appointment related to a urinary issue or diarrhea, please bring in a urine sample or a fecal sample. We will need to run the sample to help us determine the cause of the issue. The fresher the sample the better, you may collect the sample up to 12 hrs prior to the appointment and refrigerate it until you leave for the appointment. Read More

Dentistry
Good oral health care is vital for dogs and cats to live long, happy lives. Bad oral health, tartar build up can harbor bacteria and lead to issues with the heart, or damage to the liver or kidneys. We provide routine dental cleanings
and extractions as needed for dogs and cats to help them live longer and to prevent health issues later in life.
Your pet’s dental cleaning may be scheduled when your pet is in for their routine exam or during a dentistry consult with one of our veterinary technicians. Dentistry for pets does require them to have anesthesia and be asleep for teeth cleaning and potential extractions.
During the routine visit or dental consult visit your pet we will recommend pre-anesthesia bloodwork. This bloodwork is recommended for all pets undergoing anesthesia, but it is REQUIRED if your pet is 7 yrs or older. Pre-anesthesia bloodwork tells us many things about your pet. We are given insights to your pet’s blood count, platlets, and kidney and liver function. The kidneys and liver are what filter the anesthesia from the pet’s body. If there would be an issue with either organ, this could pose an issue during your pet’s surgical procedure. Therefore, this is why pre-anesthetic bloodwork is so important. Your pet’s bloodwork will be sent to our outside lab and we will get results within 1-3 business days. The bloodwork will tell us if your pet is a good candidate for anesthesia. While bloodwork minimizes the risks with anesthesia, it does not totally eliminate those risks. Before leaving your exam or consult with a technician, you will be given an appointment time and an estimate for the dental procedure so you will know what to plan for concerning your pet. Read More

Surgery
We offer spay and neuter, as well as minor soft tissue surgeries for dogs and cats. We recommend to spay or neuter when your pet is 6 months of age or older. In some instances, we MAY be able to spay or neuter at a younger age.
To spay or neuter dogs and cats helps to minimize the likelihood of center types of cancers and other health related issues that can occur.
We can schedule a routine exam for your pet or a pre-surgery consult with a technician, at that visit we will go over the procedure, expectations, costs and requirements. You will also receive an estimate for the surgery and any other services requested. A Rabies vaccination will be REQUIRED to be given at the time of the surgery if your pet is old enough, and is not current on one. If your pet is current on their Rabies vaccine, you must provide us with written proof from where it was given by a licensed veterinarian. Ideally, your pet has been established with our clinic and has had an exam and started on vaccines prior to a surgical appointment. Exams and estimates are valid for 30 days. Read More
