Services
Cold Laser Therapy
Our cold laser therapy uses light energy to reduce inflammation and promote healing for arthritis, wounds, and post-surgical recovery. This non-invasive treatment complements traditional pain management approaches while accelerating tissue repair. Patients typically receive multiple sessions for optimal results.
Dental Care
We provide comprehensive dental services including cleanings, extractions, and oral health assessments. Digital x-rays help diagnose hidden dental issues while professional scaling maintains periodontal health. Preventative care recommendations help pet owners maintain their animals' oral hygiene at home.
Preventative Care
Annual exams, vaccinations, and parasite screening form the foundation of our preventative care approach. Blood pressure monitoring and senior wellness testing help detect health issues early. Customized vaccination schedules protect against common infectious diseases.
Pet Surgery
Our surgical suite handles routine procedures like spays/neuters and complex orthopedic surgeries. Advanced monitoring equipment tracks vital signs during anesthesia while post-operative care includes pain management and recovery support. Emergency surgical interventions are available for critical cases.

Dr. Kevin did a fantastic job with my bearded dragon! He described each procedure he was going to perform, explained any extra costs, and is very knowledgeable about reptiles. I even received a message post-visit with some extra thoughts from him to better my bearded dragons care. I would definitely recommend him for your reptile needs!

Our first visit with our Maggie was a great experience. Maggie has had allergies four years now and Dr. Kevin took his time with Maggie and provided us hope of relief for her.

The doctor we had was very very good! He took care of my dogs diabetic problem I had no idea that a continuous glucose monitor could be used to keep an eye on her blood sugars to get better handle on her insulin needs I was able to purchase the device from Walmart at a fraction of the cost and I'm waiting now for my appointment to have it inserted on to my dog and we can watch her sugar needs! This Veterinary Center is more like a hospital in that they have a door just for cat services and regular dog services and also an emergency entrance for emergency need thank you Patton animal Hospital

I took my kitten for her first visit to the Patton Veterinary Hospital and everything went well. The vet and the technician who assisted her were very professional, patient with all my questions, answered those questions thoroughly and asked me questions about my kitten. They request that you stay in your car when you arrive and call them to let them know you are there. One of the techs came out to my car with paperwork for me to complete and also a packet of information. Once we were called to enter the hospital, we were escorted into an exam room. Everything was clean and well maintained. They

We have taken all of our pets here since 1995. The doctors and staff have always taken very good care of our feathered and furried friends. They have kept them healthy and when it was their time to go to the Rainbow Bridge, they were caring, helpful, and understanding.

Dr. Walters was truly amazing at a very sad time we put our fur baby to sleep. She was very clear in telling me what she was doing. She even petted my dog after he was gone and said, Rest Easy to him! The nurse assisted her, Sara was super sweet! It was very peaceful at a difficult time! Thank you!!
