EARLY DETECTION PREVENTIVE CARE
Our goal is to provide a better quality of life for your pet and your family. One of the best ways to accomplish this is by detecting medical problems as early as possible. This starts with a head-to-tail examination by the doctor and a consultation with you about what your pets’ specific needs and risks are. We will then recommend appropriate diagnostic tests, immunizations, dental care, diets, etc. to keep your pets in optimal health.
This early detection approach will increase treatment success thereby limiting your pets’ unnecessary suffering. Since pets are instinctually programmed to hide pain and cannot tell us when something is bothering them, we need to be proactive. Our hope is that all of the tests are normal. This not only gives us peace of mind but gives us normal results to compare to if the pet gets ill later. We may also be able to pick up on trends that are changing in the tests allowing early intervention. Based upon our findings, we can make specific recommendations for diet, exercise, treatment, behavior modification or further testing.
We feel that our role in your pets’ care is to assist you in making the best health care decisions possible.
RADIOWAVE SURGERY
We provide cutting edge radiowave surgery. These techniques allow for faster healing time with less pain and bleeding. The radiowave actually seal both nerves and blood vessels as they cut. They allow more effective treatment of many conditions like tumor removal, corrective procedures (stenotic nares, eyelid reconstruction, skin fold removal, and anal sac removal), treatment of infections of the mouth and skin and many other procedures.
INTERNAL MEDICINE
Our internal medicine service allows for diagnosis of most medical conditions affecting pets. We begin with a comprehensive examination. The examination findings are then used to determine a diagnostic plan that usually can be done in our hospital usually within minutes or hours. Our hospital possesses up-to-date diagnostic equipment including a complete laboratory, digital radiology (x-rays), endoscopy, etc. After an accurate diagnosis is made, our complete pharmacy allows us to begin treatment immediately, whether treatment consists of outpatient care or intensive care in the hospital.
DENTAL CARE
Our dental suite is equipped to provide the best and safest dental care for your pet. Over 80% of pets older than 7 years old have dental disease. Appropriate prevention and treatment of this dental disease has a huge impact on the length and quality of your pet’s life. Our technicians are specially trained to clean your pet’s teeth while they are anesthetized with isoflurane gas anesthetic and monitored closely throughout and after the procedure.
The doctor uses digital dental radiography (x-rays), root planing, extractions, medications, and oral surgery to treat problems that can occur in the mouth and keep your pet healthy.
We also carry a complete line of home dental care products and will counsel you on the appropriate use of these items to keep your pet’s dental health at its best.
LABORATORY
Our hospital is equipped with a complete in-house laboratory that can provide you with test results within a few minutes. Our doctor and technicians can acquire samples, perform the appropriate tests and interpret the results while you wait. We partner with many specialty labs across the nation to provide special tests for the more complicated medical cases.
RADIOLOGY
We offer digital radiology to provide the most diagnostic x-rays as quickly as possible. Not only does digital radiology allow us to get more diagnostic images, we can easily involve a specialist through telemedicine.
