Pet Dental Care
Our dental care services prevent and treat oral health issues that can lead to systemic diseases. Using ultrasonic cleaning tools and digital X-rays, we ensure thorough cleaning and early detection of problems. Our registered veterinary technicians monitor pets under anesthesia, while veterinarians address advanced conditions like periodontal disease. Regular checkups and professional cleanings maintain your pet's dental health, preventing heart and organ complications.
Urgent and Critical Care
We provide immediate treatment for pets in crisis, supported by partnerships with 24/7 emergency clinics. Our team uses advanced diagnostics like X-rays and ultrasound to stabilize patients. Services include surgery, intensive care, and life support for conditions like trauma, poisoning, or severe infections. We coordinate with specialists for round-the-clock care, ensuring pets receive timely interventions during critical moments.
Hospice and Euthanasia
Our compassionate hospice services focus on comfort and quality of life for pets in their final stages. We offer pain management, nutritional support, and home care guidance. When euthanasia is needed, we provide a serene environment and private consultations to ensure a peaceful transition. Partnering with Faithful Companion, we also offer cremation services to honor your pet's memory.
Laser Therapy
Class IV laser therapy reduces pain, inflammation, and recovery time for pets with arthritis, injuries, or post-surgical needs. This non-invasive treatment stimulates cell regeneration and improves mobility. Our veterinarians create personalized plans to address chronic pain or acute conditions, enhancing your pet's comfort and quality of life through advanced therapeutic technology.
Microchipping
We implant HomeAgain microchips to permanently identify pets, increasing the chance of reunion if lost. The quick, minimally invasive procedure places a rice-sized chip under the skin, linked to a national database. We also register existing microchips and offer tracking services, providing peace of mind through reliable identification and recovery support.

I have taken my dog here for years. Over the last year the service has become horrible. For the last 6 months we have been back and forth 4+ times for a situation. Been given antibiotics and even had a procedure, all to no avail. They've got plenty of my money, and, I've got a dog that is miserable. It is a Thursday at 11:43AM (that I am writing this), I called them at 8:01AM to talk to a Vet, and, I am still waiting for a call back from one of there Vets. My wife is on the way to the Vet ER. Shame shame shame on Big Creek. They've grown so much, but, bigger is not better. Seems they've gotten

Rude to me in an emergency situation. Receptionist was cold and seemed to not have any concern for my dog whatsoever. Offered me no help or suggestions. wouldnt squeeze my dog in For emergency and my dog was already at emergency vet, and couldnt find anything wrong even though shes very sick so I wanted her regular vet to see her right away. (this is my dogs usual vet office). They told me to call back and see if I can get in tomorrow. How does that help me?! How does that help an emergency with the dog?! They didnt even ask her symptoms. Bottom line, I found a new vet a few minutes

Dr. Percival and the team at Big Creek saved my dog's life, twice! In addition to that, they have been available to answer every question that I have had about my dogs health via phone whenever I call. Needless to say that I would highly recommend Big Creek to anyone who may be looking for a trustworthy and reputable vet.
