Companion Animal Services
Wellness Examination
We encourage preventative health care based on a yearly physical exam, life-style based vaccination schedules and screening tests for parasites and diseases. Our area has a high incidence of mosquito and tick diseases, such as Heartworm, Lyme, Ehrlichia and Anaplasmosis. We strongly encourage yearly testing for these diseases and the use of a monthly heartworm preventative and a good topical preventative for fleas and ticks.
Surgery and Anesthesia
Our veterinarians can perform many different types of surgeries including spays, neuters, declaws, C-sections, soft tissue surgeries and some orthopedic and emergency surgeries. Our surgical suite is equipped with a patient warming system and the latest in anesthesia monitoring equipment. Most surgeries go home the same day after 3:00pm Our team believes in spaying and neutering all pets that will not be used for breeding. There are many health benefits to having your pet spayed or neutered. Some of these include the elimination or reduction of certain types of cancers and the prevention of unwanted pregnancies.

Diagnostics
Our practice has the ability to handle most internal medicine cases utilizing our in-house laboratory equipment including endoscopy, ultrasonography, bacteriology, radiology, blood chemistry, hematology, urinalysis and parasitology. We will refer more complicated cases to specialists if needed. We can also send in your breeding dog's hip and/or elbow x-rays for evaluation and certification by the Orthopedic Foundation for Animals (OFA).
