We perform various surgical interventions using modern anesthetic monitoring equipment. Our operating suite handles soft tissue and orthopedic procedures with safety protocols for high-risk patients. Traveling specialists enable advanced surgical techniques on-site for client convenience.
Dentistry
Professional dental cleanings remove plaque and tartar buildup to prevent periodontal disease. Our services include tooth extractions and oral surgery for pets' comfort. Regular dental maintenance supports overall systemic health and prevents infection-related complications.

My little dog Bentley has been selling Dr. Perks for 11 years. Dr. Perks is very thorough and goes over everything with you, and she takes her time with you. In the 11 years that Bentley has been seeing her I have never had a bad experience with her or anyone that works for her. She is amazing and loving person and a great Veterinary Doctor. Thank you for everything you do. I wouldn't want Bentley to see anyone else. Thank you from the bottom of my heart
With love and many thanks.

The staff is very knowledgeable and very easy and friendly to work with. I've been bringing my dog here since the beginning of the year and am very pleased. They work with your schedule and there has been a few times I've been a little late and everything is OK. This place is very good on reminders and you can tell they care.

Great place. The people are nice and I know some of the vets personally and they are very nice. I've had many different dogs in my time as well as other pets and this has always been a good veterinary clinic to bring them for checkups and nail clippings. Definitely deserves 5 stars

We have been coming here since 2005. Our dogs have always been treated well. Staff and Dr Perks are very knowledgeable and friendly. Our latest dog is a tough case due to previous abuse but they are incredible with him and me!
