Our Services

Our Services

WELLNESS EXAMS

Make sure your pet is happy and healthy. Each pet has it's own individual needs and our doctors find the best ways to help you take care of your pet through diagnosis and treatment. 

MICROCHIPPING

Make sure you can find your pet. Our doctors inject your pet's personalized microchip under the skin of the neck. The procedure is harmless and the chip is no bigger than a piece of rice.  

SURGERY

Your dog ate a sock? We can get that out. All of our doctors perform Soft Tissue Surgeries, including Exploratory and Spay and Neuters. We are also able to offer money saving options for Orthopedic Surgeries.

VACCINATIONS

If you don't want your pet to get sick, get them vaccinated. 

After a wellness exam, our doctors will determine what vaccines are needed for your pet. 

DIGITAL X-RAYS

Your animal is limping? Let's check it out. We offer Digital X-Ray imaging, which means that the X-Ray images are immediately available and permanently stored in your pet's health record. Making it easier to identify the issue and then share with specialists. 

DENTAL CARE

Its like taking your pet to the dentist.

We offer preventative dental care as well as dental surgery

HEALTH CERTIFICATES FOR TRAVEL

Traveling with your pet to a different country? We can help.

Health certificates by a USDA-accredited veterinarian are required for taking pets outside of the United States.

Requirements for pets vary by country. Some countries may require a rabies titer that can take up to 21 days, and some countries require additional visas to enter with a pet.
