Our in-house lab provides rapid results for conditions like heartworm and tick-borne diseases. Timely diagnostics enable effective treatment planning and better outcomes for pets.

At first, I found this place to be difficult. The end result was supposed to be a teeth cleaning for our 12 yo chihuahua, Ren. They needed to give him an exam and run some tests. Thats understandable since anesthesia is involved. At pickup, I was told I would be emailed a cost estimate for his teeth cleaning. Great! Well that email didnt come and his scheduled appointment was approaching so I called again and asked if they had my email. They had it because they confirmed last time but alright. Yes, that is me and heres my husbands email. A couple days later, they called to tell us not

Very professional and warm staff! Really seem to want to do a good job. I brought our new St. Bernard puppy here for his shots and wanted them to advise us as We have noticed Bear has a missing toe and padd from his back leg. Very satisfied with the explanation and proposed treatment. Poor guy needs surgery!! Ugh.
Also, it took 3 rounds of antibiotics for a terrible UTI, but it finally is gone!!!
I like that we were able to solve the problem!! The front end staff are fantastic! There all very friendly and accommodating!! Brook came out to get bear for a follow up appointment and had to lift this

Am not very happy with this facility. The employees are unfriendly and sarcastic. The care that is given is more like being neglected on a daily basis. They talk a good talk in the beginning when taking the tour. And then it's totally the opposite when you move in. I would not recommend this if your thinking of finding this type of facility for a loved one.
