Wellness Exams

Every pet should have a through physical exam at least once a year. Discussion of diet, activity, behavior, and physical changes may reveal an animal's disease or aging processes. Vaccination decisions are made based on individual lifestyle risks. Frequency of examinations may change depending on age and underlying illness. Most diseases are much easier to treat or control if they are diagnosed early. Diagnostics such as lab work and x-rays may be indicated based on the examination.

Dentistry

We have state-of-the-art dentistry equipment: high speed drills, specialized dental instruments, and a digital x-ray. We take pride in our ability to assess and treat oral disease, thereby improving the quality of life for your pet. Remember, most pets will not tell you when their mouth hurts!

Ultrasound

Ultrasound can provide quick information about an animal's illness: looking for fluid in the abdomen or chest cavity, looking at organs to see tumors, and getting tissue or urine samples to aid in diagnostics.

We offer minimally invasive sterilization surgeries, as well as more advanced soft tissue surgeries. Most orthopedic surgeries are referred to Lucerne Veterinary Hospital. Our surgical patients are closely monitored with pulse oximetry, blood pressure, respiration, temperature and ECG during anesthesia. Our surgical licensed veterinary technicians are experienced in monitoring during surgery and after in recovery to ensure your pet is safe. All pets receive pain medication before and after surgery to ensure their comfort.
