Pet Wellness Exams
Regular wellness exams ensure pets maintain optimal health. These exams include thorough physical assessments, parasite screenings, and early detection of potential issues. Our veterinarians tailor recommendations to each pet's age, breed, and lifestyle, promoting preventive care to extend healthy lifespans.
Vaccinations
Vaccinations protect pets from infectious diseases like rabies, distemper, and parvovirus. We customize vaccine schedules based on species, age, and risk factors. Core vaccines are prioritized, while non-core options are recommended for pets with specific lifestyle needs.
Dental Care
Dental care prevents and treats oral diseases in pets. Services include professional cleanings, extractions, and treatment for gum disease. We educate owners on at-home care, such as brushing techniques and dental diets, to maintain oral hygiene.
Surgery
We perform surgical procedures ranging from spaying/neutering to tumor removals and fracture repairs. Anesthesia is carefully administered, and post-operative care includes pain management and recovery monitoring to ensure safe healing.
Exotic Pet Care
Specialized care for exotic pets, including birds, rabbits, and small mammals. Our team addresses species-specific needs, such as dietary requirements, habitat setup, and disease prevention, ensuring these unique animals receive appropriate medical attention.

Dr. Hook has been my primary vet for over 20 years and I'd never go anywhere else. He's always treated my pets as if they were his own. When I had to euthanize my 21 year old cat several years ago, he came in on his weekend off to be there for us. He is kind, gentle and is always focused on the best care. Now that my sweet pup is at the end of her life, he is still there helping guide us in making the best decisions to make the end of her life the best it can be.
I've always felt lucky to have him as a vet! I don't understand the complaints about cost, Dr. Hook's staff has always provided a detailed cost analysis *before* any treatment and explained everything. If you want a vet who will treat your pets like family, look no further.

This was my first visit to this vet with one of my cats. Staff were very friendly and answered all of my questions. The only reason why I didn't give them 5 stars is because my cat was sick for 2 days after his shots. He was very lethargic and wouldn't eat. I've never seen my cat like this after shots before. Maybe it was the manufacturer of the shot, I don't know but it was sad to see my kitty so sick.

We have loved Arbor Ridge Pet Clinic for 3 years now. Our dog has allergies and Arbor Ridge has taken great care of him. The staff is friendly and understanding. Manager Kenny is always so kind and makes scheduling easy. Jenn is our (and our dog's) favorite person. Her interactions with our dog make our visits stress-free. She seems to know just what to do to make our dog feel more comfortable. She has a special touch with animals and truly cares. Shawn is the perfect vet for us.
We love Shawn's honesty and care. He provides concise and accurate assessments and recommendations, we appreciate that Shawn approaches us in a nonjudgmental way and doesn't try pressure us into doing things. All around Arbor Ridge has a wonderful staff and we will keep coming back. Thanks ya'll, you rock! Alyssa, Emily, and Jackson
