Microchips have helped reunite thousands of pets with their families. We offer the most widely used microchip products to increase the chances of a safe recovery.

Veterinary patients feel pain and discomfort under the same circumstances as people do. We know that recognizing and alleviating pain in animals is the essence of good patient care.

That branch of veterinary medicine concerned with reproduction, including the physiology and pathology of male and female reproductive systems and the clinical practice of veterinary obstetrics, gynecology, and andrology. Theriogenologists are veterinarians with advanced training in animal reproduction and obstetrics.

BLOOD TRANSFUSION
We maintain a supply of blood for dogs and cats in case of emergency. The blood is collected from healthy donor animals that are kept at our hospital as pets.

EMERGENCY AND CRITICAL CARE

Examining a Specimen

In any emergency, seconds count. Our experienced staff is backed up by our resuscitation unit, stocked and equipped to administer the ABCs of basic life support – Airway, Breathing, Circulation/Cardiac compressions. Emergency care is offered during regular business hours. In addition, we use the services of a local, fully staffed emergency center for after hours.

EUTHANASIA SERVICES
Saying goodbye to a long-time friend is painful. We work with clients to ensure their pet’s comfort and dignity. We can also take care of the remains as directed by the client.

ULTRASOUND
This non-invasive, state-of-the-art technology uses sound waves to painlessly examine specific internal organs, primarily the heart and abdominal organs. Pregnancy exams are also available.

NUTRITIONAL COUNSELING
Some pets require special food, and all pets benefit from a balanced diet. Our trained staff is available to help you choose the right diet for your pet to keep him or her happy, healthy and active.

BEHAVIORAL MEDICINE
Illness doesn’t always have a physical cause. Our veterinarians have training in animal behavior and can help determine the cause of such disorders as separation anxiety and obsessive behavior, and then develop a treatment regimen for the client.

FULLY STOCKED PHARMACY
We stock a wide range of the best veterinary drugs in the animal healthcare field.
