• Lasers

  We offer laser surgery as an elective choice for your pet's surgical needs. Lasers are a minimally invasive alternative to traditional surgery. Lasers replace scalpels in many procedures, and are useful for a wide range of conditions such as cyst, tumor, and wart removal, and can even be used in declawing. Laser procedures result in less pain, less bleeding and less swelling. They reduce risk of infection and result in less post-operative discomfort.

• Dental Care

  Regular professional cleaning is important to maintaining your pet's teeth, as well as their general health. We use modern and safe ultrasound to clean each tooth thoroughly, above and below the gum line. Dental technicians polish teeth to create a smooth, lustrous tooth surface more resistant to plaque buildup. After dental procedures we will discuss dental management and future dental care for your pet to keep them smiling bright and feeling great!

• Fully Stocked Pharmacy

  Our hospital stocks a wide range of the best veterinary drugs in the animal healthcare field. We can also special-order drugs and nutritional supplements to meet our patients' needs.

• Microchipping

  Microchips have helped reunite thousands of lost pets with their families. We offer the most widely used microchip products to increase the chances of a safe recovery. Our staff will implant the chip into your pet and guide you through the chip registering process so that he or she will be permanently identifiable and registered to you. The other benefit to microchipping your pet is that you can obtain a lifetime license once your pet is permanently identified (microchipped or tatooed).  This eliminates the need to purchase an annual pet license and is less expensive in the long run.
