Veterinary Care at Your Pet-Friendly Workplace
Report
The Downtown Veterinary Clinic is a pet-friendly clinic where clients are often greeted by pets of Dr. Ficarra and staff. As such, we understand the benefits of having pets in the workplace. We also appreciate that fitting a veterinary visit into your already busy schedule is not always possible. We are pleased to provide quality veterinary care for your pet at your workplace.
Homeopathy & Chiropractic Care
Report
At our clinic, the goal is to work with you in determining the best course of treatment that is most comfortable for you and your pet. You have the rare opportunity of having both modern and homeopathic approaches working side by side. The practice of homeopathy, which uses minute doses of natural substances to treat ailments and disease, has been around for ages yet it is rare to find a veterinary practitioner in New York City.
Laser Therapy
Report
Our Low Level Laser and LED therapy allows us a non-intrusive means to treat your pet for a variety of conditions. These lasers act by increasing production of cellular fuel and reducing pain and inflammation by increasing blood flow in the area of injury. Please contact us if you feel that your pet may benefit from the healing effects of laser therapy.
Wellness Care
Report
Regular health exams are key in detecting and preventing illnesses before they become life threatening. It is recommended that adult pets receive an annual examination, while senior pets be seen every six months. From new puppy to senior wellness examinations, our pet will receive a comprehensive physical examination.
Dentistry
Report
Your pet's oral hygiene is important in preventing infection, both orally and to its organs, tooth loss and discomfort. Routine care can add years of pain-free living. During the examination, your pet's mouth will be assessed for swelling, abscesses, excessive tartar and odor to determine whether a cleaning is needed.
