Our practice features a highly skilled healthcare
team and a complete full-service hospital offering a full range of medical,
laboratory, dental and surgical services. Should your pet require the expertise
of a veterinary specialist, we are affiliated with a full array of specialists
throughout the Metropolitan area. You can feel confident that your pet will
receive and have access to the very best care available.
Our number one goal is to help you keep your pet as healthy as possible.
Regular wellness examinations and a customized preventive care program are
designed to protect your pet from disease and allow for the early detection of
any health problems that may exist. A thorough health examination is recommended
at least annually for pets up to 5-7 years of age. For your senior pets, older
than 7 years, we recommend at least two health exams per year. These visits
typically include diagnostic blood work in addition to the physical examination
and a thorough discussion of your pet's health status.
Our practice is fully equipped with an in-house laboratory, an imaging
department with radiology and ultrasound services, cat and dog specific
hospitalization quarters, and a fully stocked pharmacy. Our medical care
services include advanced diagnostics, pediatric care, reproductive services,
cardiology, glaucoma screening, geriatric care, and oncology (cancer) therapy.
We maintain a strong relationship with a full array of specialists who are
available to consult on your pets case and to provide specialty care when
indicated.

Our hospital is well-equipped to perform most minor and major surgical
procedures from spays and neuters to more complicated emergency, orthopedic and
soft tissue surgeries. Some of the more advanced orthopedic procedures done at
our hospital include fracture repair, ruptured (cruciates) ligaments, and
patella (kneecap) luxations. Prior to surgery, each patient receives a thorough
physical examination to identify any pre-existing medical conditions that might
endanger your pet's health. Because not all problems can be detected on
examination, we also perform pre-anesthetic blood testing. These tests not only
give us a more complete picture of your pet's health but also allow us to tailor
an anesthetic regime that is specific for your pet. Our surgical suite is
equipped with state-of-the-art anesthetic machines and extensive anesthetic
monitoring devices including pulse oximetry, ECG heart monitor, and other vital
signs monitoring equipment.
Daily dental care is something we take for granted for ourselves because it
becomes so routine. However, we often forget that our pets need routine dental
care too. We offer a full line of home dental care products, including Oravet, a
new sealant. Daily dental care should become as routine for your pet as it is
for you. We include an oral exam with every physical examination we perform. If
your pet has bad breath, gingivitis, plaque or tartar a dental prophylactic
cleaning and polishing may be recommended to restore your pet’s mouth to a
healthy condition. We use ultrasonic scaling and polishing equipment, safe
general anesthesia, and state-of-the-art monitoring equipment for our dental
procedures.

We take our pledge to be a pain-free hospital very seriously. Our healthcare
team will help make you aware of the subtle symptoms of chronic pain and let you
know how you can help your pet live more comfortably. We have many drug therapy
options available in addition to physical therapy to ensure that your pet lives
as comfortable a life as possible. Pain management is also part of our
pre-operative, intra-operative and post-operative anesthetic and surgical
protocol. All surgical patients including those undergoing routine procedures
such as ovariohysterectomy or castrations receive pain control medications. We
urge you to discuss pain management options with our staff.
The very best care that we can provide for your pet is through our hospital
facility. However, we realize that sometimes it is not physically possible or
practical to bring your pet in. On other occasions, it may be more comfortable
for your pet and your family for our doctor to care for your pet at your home.
For these reasons, we offer house call service.
For your convenience and your pet's health and happiness, we carry a large
selection of fresh, competitively-priced prescription and premium diets. We also
carry: nutritional supplements, dental health supplies, flea control products,
and the highest quality, general pet supplies. We will be glad to consult with
you regarding the best dietary requirements for your pet's particular needs. Our
team is always happy to answer your questions.
