Services
Laser Therapy
Laser therapy uses Diowave Technology to reduce inflammation, treat arthritis, and aid post-surgical recovery. This non-invasive option accelerates healing and minimizes discomfort. Pets benefit from faster recovery times and improved mobility, especially those with chronic conditions or injuries.
Surgery
We perform routine and complex surgeries, including neutering, intestinal obstruction removal, and select orthopedic procedures. Cases requiring specialists are referred to board-certified professionals. Our focus is on minimizing stress while ensuring precise, safe interventions for pets needing surgical care.
Radiology
Digital x-ray and ultrasound technologies deliver rapid, accurate diagnostic results. This allows immediate treatment decisions for conditions affecting bones, organs, or soft tissues. Timely imaging ensures pets receive urgent care for injuries, respiratory issues, or internal obstructions.

24/7 emergency services are available with Dr. Bertoldo on call for after-hours emergencies. Critical care includes trauma treatment, poisoning, and acute illnesses. Immediate access to diagnostics and treatment stabilizes patients before regular business hours.

We recently moved to the Poconos area and started taking our pets here. Dr Bertoldo has been excellent. He is thorough in his exams and consideration of current medical conditions. He is affordable and doesnt push extra services or procedures. He is kind to our animals and patient to us in explaining things. Weve never felt rushed or forgotten. He is also the only vet at the practice which I absolutely love. No more of our pets shuffling around between 3-4 vets who dont know us or our animals or their ongoing needs. This veterinarian clearly cares about animals and about the humans who
