Services
Wellness Exams
Routine veterinary examinations detect early health issues and prevent disease progression through comprehensive physical assessments. Our preventive care approach includes vaccination planning, nutritional counseling, and parasite control tailored to each pet's life stage. Regular checkups help maintain optimal health while building trust between pets, owners, and our medical team.
Emergency Care
We provide immediate veterinary attention for acute injuries, sudden illnesses, and critical conditions during regular business hours. Our emergency services include rapid diagnostic testing, pain management, and stabilization procedures for established patients. Prompt intervention capabilities ensure pets receive life-saving care when time-sensitive medical situations arise unexpectedly.
In-House Diagnostics
Advanced diagnostic equipment enables swift blood work analysis, urinalysis, and imaging studies to identify underlying health problems. Rapid test results allow timely treatment decisions for infectious diseases, organ function abnormalities, and chronic conditions. This immediate diagnostic capability improves patient outcomes through expedited medical interventions.
Veterinary Surgery
Our surgical services address orthopedic injuries, soft tissue procedures, and specialized interventions requiring anesthesia expertise. Preoperative assessments minimize risks while postoperative care includes pain management and recovery monitoring. The surgical team utilizes modern techniques to treat injuries, congenital defects, and disease conditions affecting pets' quality of life.
Senior Pet Care
Tailored healthcare plans address age-related changes in senior pets through specialized nutrition guidance and mobility support. Regular monitoring detects early signs of arthritis, kidney disease, and cognitive decline.

Went for end of life care for a small animal, was the only place in this half of the state that would help out. Staff was very compassionate during a difficult time.

The doctors explained what was going on very well and everyone was so compassionate throughout the difficult process. All the staff was very nice but Sam was especially kind and I want to give extra kudos to her.

I would highly recommend not coming to this animal hospital. I was a victim of racial discrimination from another client and was disgusted by how the situation was handled by Staff.if you are a minority PLEASE STAY AWAY. The parkinglot staff did nothing but escalate the situation but what I found even more disgusting was the notes left on my Pets medical record. Providing no context to the racial slur that had been directed towards me making it increasingly difficult to find a new care provider;seems to have been done with Malicious intent.

This is by far the WORST animal hospital I have ever been to. They made multiple mistakes weighing my dog and issuing medication, not once but twice. I do not trust them with my animal and, if you care about yours, you shouldnt either. Each time I had to go back to the facility to exchange the medication after I noticed the mistakes. When I expressed my concern to the staff they mentioned the manager, Tom, would call me right away. After not hearing from him for over 24 hours I contacted the hospital myself. He was not available but eventually called me back. When he did, he was discussing the
