Services
Physical Exams
Annual wellness exams help detect age-related changes and hidden health issues in pets. We thoroughly evaluate vital signs, dental health, and organ function to create preventive care plans. Early diagnosis through routine checkups improves treatment outcomes and extends pets' healthy lifespans.
Vaccinations
Customized vaccine protocols protect pets from contagious diseases based on lifestyle and risk factors. We offer core vaccines like rabies and distemper, plus optional protections for Lyme disease and influenza. Regular boosters maintain immunity against preventable illnesses.
Diagnostics
In-house lab work and radiography enable rapid diagnosis of illnesses and injuries. We perform blood panels, urinalysis, and X-rays to identify internal issues like infections or fractures. Quick results allow immediate treatment planning for sick or injured pets.
Surgeries
Dr. Miller performs spays, neuters, mass removals, and emergency procedures with strict safety protocols. Pre-anesthetic blood tests ensure surgical readiness, while continuous monitoring minimizes risks. Post-operative care includes pain management and recovery guidance.
Dental Cleanings
Professional dental cleanings remove plaque and prevent periodontal disease under anesthesia. We polish teeth, apply fluoride, and document progress with before-and-after photos. Early detection of dental issues prevents systemic health complications in pets.

You could grow old waiting for this vet to show up. It is habitual. Inconsiderate of me but even more so for my anxious dog.

Report
My dog has been a patient his entire life (he is now 11). He has been on Ibuprofen for dogs for the last year and a half. Dr. Miller is refusing today refill his prescription for ibuprofen unless I pay for the costly bloodwork yet again as well as a physical exam. I explained I could afford the exam but not the bloodwork. I also explained that he is in pain and elderly. Dr. Miller did not suggest any other medication, nor did she offer any payment plan or modification to cost.
She did not return my phone calls and I have only spoken to the receptionist. Since he didn't need bloodwork for the ibuprofen when she first prescribed the medication (he had bloodwork done for another medication after already being prescribed the ibuprofen), I'm wondering why he would need it done now?
