Services
Wellness Care
Our wellness programs focus on disease prevention through regular checkups, vaccinations, and parasite control. We create customized care plans for pets at every life stage, emphasizing early detection of health issues. Services include nutritional counseling, senior pet monitoring, and comprehensive bloodwork to maintain optimal health.
Surgical Care
We perform routine and complex surgical procedures using modern equipment and safety protocols. Pre-anesthetic blood testing ensures patient safety, while intravenous fluid therapy supports recovery. Our surgical suite handles spay/neuter operations, mass removals, and emergency interventions with post-operative pain management and monitoring.
Dental Care
Comprehensive dental services address oral health issues through professional cleanings, digital X-rays, and extractions. We educate owners on home care techniques to prevent periodontal disease. Anesthesia ensures thorough treatment, with digital imaging to diagnose hidden problems affecting teeth and jaw structures.
Acupuncture
Certified veterinary acupuncture treats chronic pain, arthritis, and neurological conditions using traditional Chinese medicine techniques. Fine needles stimulate healing points to improve mobility and comfort without pharmaceutical side effects. This non-invasive approach complements conventional treatments for long-term wellness.
Ultrasound
Ultrasound technology provides real-time internal organ visualization without radiation exposure. Our trained veterinarians use this tool for abdominal and cardiac evaluations, pregnancy monitoring, and guiding biopsies. Same-day results help create accurate treatment plans for pets showing symptoms like vomiting or weight loss.

My 3 adult cats are always seen here however,l haven't really been satisfied with their care . I have been tolerant because of covid. Today I suddenly lost my 9-month-old female and when I called South towns to ask some general questions I was uncompassionately told they were not able to give me advice. No doubt will I find another vet.

Guys, whoever is handling your Google listing needs to be changed. If it is the owner, stop, pay someone. If it is someone that works for you, get someone else to do it. If you are paying someone, fire them, and get a new company. Your responses to some of these 1 star reviews is atrocious. Making written excuses for all to read, rather than trying to make changes. It stopped me from bringing my dog here.

When I brought Quigley in to the vet as a puppy, socialization and making him feel comfortable were prioritized. He loves going to the vet. Dr. Jacobi and Zgoda have answered all my questions and treated Quigley successfully. He had a lot of health issues as a puppy and we worked together to help him. I have used Southtowns with all my dogs. Always been happy with care!!
