Wellness Care
Our wellness care programs focus on disease prevention and early detection through regular checkups, tailored vaccination schedules, and nutritional counseling. We create customized wellness plans for pets at every life stage, from puppies/kittens to senior animals. Our comprehensive approach helps identify potential health issues before they become serious, ensuring longer, healthier lives for your pets.
Vaccinations
We provide core and non-core vaccinations to protect pets against common infectious diseases. Our vaccination protocols follow AAHA guidelines while considering individual risk factors. We offer rabies, distemper, parvovirus, feline leukemia, and other essential vaccines with proper documentation for travel and boarding requirements. Our team explains each vaccine's purpose and recommended schedule during wellness visits.
Surgery
Our surgical services include spay/neuter, soft tissue procedures, and emergency interventions. We utilize modern anesthetic protocols and monitoring equipment to ensure patient safety. Pre-operative bloodwork and post-operative care instructions are provided for all surgical cases. Our facility maintains strict sterility standards to minimize infection risks during procedures.
Dentistry
We offer complete dental care including cleanings, extractions, and periodontal treatment. Digital dental radiography helps diagnose hidden oral issues. Our technicians perform thorough oral exams and recommend appropriate dental procedures during wellness visits. Regular dental care prevents systemic infections and maintains overall pet health.

We are always so thankful for the wonderful care everyone gives to Abbie. She is not the easiest cat to take care of but all of you try to make her visits very comfortable for her. We appreciate that so much.

I can go on and on about how this office will perform tests, put animals thru stressful situations for money. But my real problem with them.. I switched vets because of several reasons.. I am SO PLEASED with Anchor Bay Vet. Everyone is so pleasant and the doctor seems to truly care. The doctor calls me and says my cat has a grade 4 heart murmur! The doctor expected me to know this.. but I didn't because instead of checking my cats heart.. Bayside animal clinic was too busy doing the things that could rack up my bill! So glad I never have to deal with them again. Just going to be angry as all hell

I feel like the dr cares more about the money then the animals. I really didnt want to bring my dog into her but i had no choice due to so many places not taking new patients/booked months out. I would just say maybe look other places even if its close.
