Services
Wellness Exams
Annual wellness exams help detect early signs of disease through comprehensive physical examinations. Our veterinarians assess pets from nose to tail, checking for heart disease, dental issues, and other health concerns. We develop customized vaccination schedules and nutrition plans based on each pet's specific needs and lifestyle factors.
Vaccinations
We provide tailored vaccination programs using modified or killed disease agents to stimulate immune responses. Our protocols consider each pet's age, species, and exposure risks while following current veterinary guidelines. Vaccinations protect against common illnesses and help maintain overall pet health and community safety.
Dentistry
Our dental services address periodontal disease through both preventive care and surgical interventions. We offer teeth cleaning under anesthesia, fracture repairs, and extractions when needed. Advanced monitoring equipment ensures patient safety during procedures while promoting long-term oral health.
Soft Tissue Surgery
We perform various surgical procedures including spays, neuters, and internal organ treatments. State-of-the-art monitoring equipment tracks vital signs during operations. Pre-anesthetic blood testing ensures surgical safety while our experienced team provides post-operative care instructions for optimal recovery.
Diagnostic Imaging
Digital x-rays, ultrasounds, and endoscopy help diagnose internal conditions without invasive procedures. Our imaging technology allows real-time organ visualization and minimally invasive biopsies. Board-certified specialist consultations are available through digital image sharing for complex cases.

We were treated with respect and compassion as we had to have our pet put to sleep. Extenuating circumstances. Thankful for their honesty and caring bedside manner

My dog passed on Dec 22nd. My boy Shiloh didn't make it and died on the table at Pondview.. It was one of the worst days of my life watching him pass but the staff did everything they could to save him and after they collected some of his hair and paw prints for me and never charged me a dime to do it.. Great people and I will miss taking him to the vets cause he always liked the people..

I adopted a great 9 yr old Torti, took her for her first checkup. The vet was super. Pondview has been our go to place when we had dogs, and now that I have another cat, they are great.
