Services
General Wellness
Our preventative care program includes routine checkups, vaccinations, and screenings to detect health issues early. By focusing on wellness, we help pets maintain optimal health and avoid chronic conditions. This approach reduces long-term medical costs while extending pets' lifespans through proactive management of potential risks.
Dentistry
Annual dental exams and cleanings prevent periodontal disease and systemic health problems. Using advanced dental radiography, we diagnose hidden issues like tooth root abscesses. Our services include scaling, polishing, extractions, and home care guidance to ensure pets maintain clean, pain-free mouths throughout their lives.
Diagnostic Services
We utilize radiography, ultrasounds, and laboratory diagnostics to identify illnesses and injuries. These tools enable accurate diagnosis of internal conditions, heart problems, and chronic diseases. Timely testing allows us to develop targeted treatment plans, improving recovery outcomes for pets in both urgent and ongoing care scenarios.
Surgical Services
Our surgical capabilities include soft tissue and orthopedic procedures for conditions like torn ligaments and broken bones. Using sterile techniques and advanced anesthesia protocols, we perform spays, neuters, tumor removals, and joint repairs. Post-operative care ensures pets recover comfortably with minimal complications.
Laser Therapy
Non-invasive laser therapy reduces pain and inflammation for pets with arthritis, post-surgical conditions, or chronic pain. This drug-free treatment accelerates healing by stimulating cellular regeneration. Its particularly effective for senior pets or those recovering from injuries without requiring additional medication.

We have used this place for 13 years with good experiences untill now. We had our 16 year old dog here for 2 weeks in the kennell costing us $405. I know he was very old and not much life left, however, our poor dog did not eat the whole time, and nothing was done and we werent notified of him not eating, They claimed he needed steroids for his arthritis which we were made aware of(and i dont know why or how they know this because obviously he was never brought out of the cage)which we gave permission for, which resulted in his 2 back legs being paralyzed. When we picked him up 2 weeks later he

My cat is felv positive. They diagnosed him and talked through our options and are giving him the aide that is keeping him with us. When we moved and I changed jobs, we missed an appointment and just forgot to call. When we did, they got us in next day. They have done everything to make his care as affordable as it can be and to keep him comfortable and happy. There is a reason it takes a while to get an animal seen. They earn their customer loyalty.

They always care about my questions and concerns and offer great suggestions to help. I've been to other vets that make you feel like you are on a conveyor belt...you go in, your pet gets their shot(s)...and the vet would not give you time to go over anything or discuss anything with you. I would recommend any pet owner to give them a try.
