Services
Pet Wellness Care
Our wellness programs emphasize regular check-ups and preventative treatments to maintain optimal pet health. We provide tailored vaccination schedules, parasite control, and nutrition counseling for pets at every life stage. Our comprehensive exams detect early signs of disease while offering owners valuable education about their pet's specific needs.
Pet Dentistry
We offer complete dental services including oral exams, teeth cleanings, and surgical extractions. Our dental care prevents periodontal disease that can affect major organs. Using digital imaging and modern anesthetics, we ensure safe procedures while maintaining detailed dental records for ongoing care planning.
Exotic Pet Care
Our team has specialized training for exotic animals including birds, reptiles, and small mammals. We provide species-specific wellness exams, dietary consultations, and treatment for unique medical conditions. This expertise extends to avian medicine, reptile husbandry, and care for pocket pets like ferrets and hedgehogs.
Pet Imaging
We utilize digital radiography and ultrasound for accurate internal diagnostics. These non-invasive tools help assess organ function, detect abnormalities, and guide treatment decisions. Our imaging services support rapid diagnosis while minimizing patient discomfort through gentle handling techniques.
Pet Surgery
Our surgical services include spaying/neutering, soft tissue procedures, and emergency interventions. Patients receive comprehensive pre-anesthetic evaluations and multi-modal pain management. We maintain strict sterilization protocols while providing post-operative care instructions tailored to each pet's recovery needs.

Love Dr. Chris. She and the Vet Tech Ann took great care of both of our dogs. Ann called the following day to see how both dogs were doing after getting vaccinated and the following day with test results.

Everything was great! It's so hard to find an avian vet, and even harder to find one you really like. And this is exactly what I found at GoldenView! The vet had a great "bedside" manner - treated both my bird and me very warmly and professionally. She took the time to answer all my (many!) questions, and did a thorough exam. I am so happy to have found such a great local resource.
