Advanced Care

Orthopedics

When it comes to orthopedic care, prevention, detection, and treatment of injuries or disorders of the skeletal system and associated muscles, joints, and ligaments are an important and vital part of keeping your pet up, running, and healthy. In addition to a thorough physical exam, we use laboratory tests and radiological findings to determine the cause of your pet’s pain and/or the extent of their injury or illness.

Pain Management

Our veterinarians work with you to determine the cause of pain and teach you how to recognize pain in your pet. Acute or chronic pain affects your pet’s ability to physically function and can also have a detrimental effect on their well-being and state of mind. Pain management is one of our primary considerations when treating a pet for any medical condition.

Laser Therapy

Laser therapy is often used in conjunction with physical therapy or rehab and is a non-invasive, pain-free treatment that helps to reduce inflammation, decrease pain, and aid in healing. Laser therapy is good for post-surgical patients, chronic arthritis, skin conditions, muscle strains and sprains, joint or disc disease, wounds, bites, and burns.

Blood & Plasma Transfusions

Blood transfusion (including transfusion of blood products, like plasma) is a critically important service that can mean the difference between life and death for your pet. All blood is carefully screened for safety, handled carefully to ensure delivery of healthy cells, and administered by experienced professionals. Our staff has been extensively trained and will handle your pet with care and compassion.

Animal Reproduction

Animal reproduction and breeding is a serious business. A vital component of a quality breeding program is education, which ensures that you are fully aware of the issues that may arise to guarantee the safety and health of your male or female dog or cat, and their offspring. Our services include breeding management, ovulation timing, artificial insemination, pregnancy diagnosis, and cesarean deliveries.

OFA Certification

Hip and elbow dysplasia is a common condition that affects dogs and can cause debilitating and painful conditions for your pet. OFA Hip & Elbow evaluation/certification helps pet owners and breeders to evaluate the hip joint before breeding. We strongly recommend OFA Hip & Elbow certification before breeding a female, before the purchase of a puppy, and/or to evaluate your pet's hip condition.

Chinese Herbal Medicine

Chinese herbal medicine is a holistic approach to healing. Along with nutrition management and acupuncture, it comprises a system of diagnosis and systemic treatment commonly known as Traditional Chinese Veterinary Medicine or TCVM. Chinese medicinal herbs are used in dogs and cats for a variety of conditions. Herbal treatments tend to be gentler than medication and may take longer to see clear results.

Hospice & Euthanasia

Deciding when your pet may need hospice care or euthanasia is a very personal and private decision, but that doesn’t mean you have to make this difficult choice on your own. Our hospice and humane euthanasia services are conducted with respect, compassion, and care. If you are worried you have a sick, elderly, or terminally ill pet that is suffering, call us to learn how we can help.

Farm Animals

We offer on-site and at-clinic appointments for large farm and ranch animals. Our wellness and preventative care includes vaccinations, deworming, dehorning, and hoof trimming. We also offer minor surgical procedures, such as castrations, spays, and laceration repairs, and blood testing for fertility, Coggins, and Trichomoniasis.

Goats

Animals like goats need medical care just as much as house pets. Our routine veterinary exams evaluate their growth and the wellness of all body systems, looking for any changes or potential problems. In addition to regular check-ups, vaccinations and parasite control are important components of preventative medicine for your goat.

Equine

Our equine health services include routine health care and nutritional counseling. Additionally, we offer hoof consultation, minor surgery, and wound care, diagnostic testing, lameness exams, parasite control and vaccines, equine dentistry, and medical care. Our goal is to continually provide the best available veterinary care for your horses, allowing them to live longer, happier, and healthier lives.

Exotic Pet Care

Exotic pets include small mammals, reptiles, birds, fish, amphibians, and invertebrates. We recommend that all newly acquired exotic pets be kept separate from your other pets for one month after purchase. They should also receive an initial health evaluation by your veterinarian prior to introduction to your other pets. We offer a wide array of wellness services for exotic pets.

Pocket Pets

Pocket pets refer to smaller household pets such as guinea pigs, hamsters, mice, rats, gerbils, and hedgehogs. Each pet is different and requires different care. We will guide you in your pet’s care, provide helpful tips for keeping your pet safe and we offer treatments (such as vaccination, parasite screening, and spay/neuter) to keep your pet healthy.

Rabbits

Rabbits are susceptible to a variety of diseases and conditions, including overgrown teeth, hairballs, parasites, and cancer. They also tend to hide signs of illness or pain. We suggest regular dental check-ups and recommend that you have your rabbit spayed or neutered. We offer these services in our office and would love to meet your furry friend.

Health Certificates

Many of our clients travel with their pets, even when going abroad. Often they’ll need a health certificate to accompany their pet. You will want to make sure you know the requirements of the carrier and/or destination, and then plan ahead: make your appointment with the USDA (if required), have your pet’s vaccinations and tests performed in the appropriate time frame, and schedule your appointment appropriately.
