Services
Pet Dental Exams
Our dental exams detect oral diseases early, preventing systemic issues like heart and kidney disease. We use digital X-rays and ultrasonic scaling to address tooth decay, trauma, and gum disease. Customized treatment plans ensure pets receive extractions or polishing as needed.
Pet Surgical Services
We perform surgeries with presurgical blood work, IV fluid therapy, and advanced anesthesia monitoring. Our team handles soft-tissue procedures, spays/neuters, and emergency interventions. Postoperative care includes pain management and recovery tracking for optimal healing.
Pet Wellness Exams
Annual and biannual exams assess pets' overall health through physical checks and lab tests. We tailor vaccine schedules and recommend preventive measures like flea control. Early disease detection reduces long-term treatment costs and improves outcomes.
Diagnostics
Digital radiology and ultrasound enable accurate, rapid diagnosis of internal conditions. On-site lab testing identifies heartworm, Lyme disease, and organ dysfunction within minutes. Microscopy evaluates blood, urine, and tissue samples for comprehensive health assessments.
Vaccination Programs
Customized vaccine schedules protect pets based on lifestyle and exposure risks. Core vaccines for rabies, distemper, and parvovirus are administered alongside optional vaccines for Lyme disease and feline leukemia. We document all immunizations for future reference.

Have been bringing my pets here or over 20 years. DR Anderson helped me save a rescued dog and Dr Hersmann was there from beginning to end with my best friend, Belle and her son Charlie. Thank you for being here for my new pack.

Called to have my dog looked at she's not eating she's shaking bad losing alot of wait I called to have her seen they tell me a month away. Tell the girl she's not eating she chuckled which I thought was rude. So my dog could pass away before her appointment. Will never go back to that place.

Moved from NJ to Mass. Needed a new Vet for 3 dogs. I was recommended by local animal control!
Had a hard time finding a Vet that was accepting new patients.
1 of my dogs had an eye ulcer and needed a recheck. They took me right away. What a GREAT experience. Staff was kind and very friendly. Dr. was exceptional! Explained course of treatment. No unnecessary treatments were requested. Not judgemental.
WILL RECOMMEND!
