Services
Vaccinations
We provide core and lifestyle-based vaccinations for dogs and cats, including rabies, DHPP, FVRCP, and bordetella. Our protocols follow AAHA guidelines to protect pets from contagious diseases. Vaccination schedules are tailored to each pet's age, health status, and exposure risks.
Dental Care
Our dental services include professional cleanings, extractions, and periodontal treatments. Using anesthesia for safety, we perform scaling, polishing, and oral exams to prevent tooth decay and systemic infections. Home care guidance is provided to maintain oral health between visits.
Emergency Services
Available 24/7, our emergency team treats critical conditions like trauma, poisoning, and respiratory distress. Advanced diagnostics and stabilization equipment ensure immediate care for life-threatening situations. Priority is given to severe cases while maintaining timely triage.
Surgical Procedures
We perform soft tissue surgeries, spays/neuters, and mass removals using sterile techniques and modern anesthetics. Preoperative bloodwork and pain management protocols ensure patient safety. Postoperative care includes recovery monitoring and follow-up appointments.
Microchipping
Permanent microchip implantation offers reliable identification for lost pets. The quick, minimally invasive procedure places a rice-sized chip under the skin, registered to owner contact details. Microchipping significantly increases reunion chances compared to collars alone.
