Urgent Care
Gasow Veterinary Hospital provides urgent care for non-life-threatening pet emergencies seven days a week. Services include triage, diagnostics, and treatment for injuries, allergic reactions, and sudden illnesses. Our team prioritizes cases based on severity, ensuring pets receive timely care after regular hours. Urgent care fees apply, and walk-ins are welcome.
Wellness Exams
Annual and bi-annual wellness exams assess pets' overall health, including dental, cardiovascular, and neurological evaluations. Senior pets receive specialized screenings for early disease detection. These exams emphasize preventive care to maintain health and reduce long-term costs through early intervention.
Dental Care
Comprehensive dental services include exams, cleanings, X-rays, and extractions under anesthesia. We follow AVMA guidelines to ensure safety and offer preventive advice for home care. Regular dental maintenance prevents periodontal disease and systemic health issues linked to oral bacteria.
Orthopedic Surgery
Advanced orthopedic procedures treat conditions like cruciate ligament tears, fractures, and patellar luxation. Our surgeons use techniques such as bone plating and joint repair to restore mobility. Post-operative care includes pain management and recovery guidance for optimal outcomes.
Microchipping
Permanent microchipping services ensure pets can be identified if lost. The quick, minimally invasive procedure places a chip under the skin, registered with owner contact details. We emphasize updating information to maximize recovery chances.

The after hour clinic alone makes this place absolutely amazing it has been a lifesaver for our dog who has utilize several times. Everyone has been extremely friendly and helpful every time I've called or had an appointment. Also the lab services come back fast, doctors call quickly and answer all your questions once the work is in. You can truly tell that everyone here really cares for animals and enjoys what they do. They really have empathy for you when your furry friend is not at their best. We found this place when our dog could not get into our regular vet, now this is our vet!

I have been going to Gasow Veterinary Hospital for 33 years. They are open 7 days a week which is so great for people who work 9-5 and can't take time from work to take their pet to the vet. When my pup gets a hot spot, I can go that day and wait my turn to get him/her in to be seen. I can't wait 2-3 days to get a hot spot treated. They've been in business 90 years and I trust them implicitly.

Referral from my vet and a better choice. Went to evening walk in and the atmosphere was wonderful. The care was great and put my mind at rest. My Stella is so much better and I'm extremely grateful. The cost was reasonable and as expected. Make the switch, you'll be glad you did!

A little pricey, but I appreciate that they didn't push a bunch of meds and vaccines that I don't want for my pets. They clipped Piper's nails without asking, I prefer to do that myself, but I understand that most pet parents would welcome the service. They said he had flea dirt, but none of my pets are outdoor pets, and even when I bathed him, there weren't any fleas. It's been over a week now and still no fleas.

Thank you to this clinic and their entire Team. I have been in the dog industry for 10 years and coming across a vet with a team that cares as much as they do is SO rare! My pup is experiencing some health issues that is requiring extensive testing and medication. Not only do they call me to check in on my pup, but myself as well. They take the time to answer my questions and do not nickel and dime you. They truly want what's best for your pup and you. Thank you Gasow Team!

I found a stray cat that was in a bad shape. Brought it to Glasgow vet not knowing what to expect. Tricia was an absolute Godsend, to the kitty and myself. This clinic cares about animals above all. That's the way it should be. Great clinic. Great staff. Five stars!

The Dr & techs were very nice once we got into the exam room. You still have to call when you arrive, you can come in just 1 person w your pet however I feel they try to talk you into staying in your car. The staff that comes out to the car and another staffer were pretty unpleasant. My husband was paying as I forgot my wallet & the process for me to get his wallet was a joke they still wouldn't let him in but for a second. I'd change vets but I can't find one we like. Go here if you have to as the vets & techs are nice but don't expect much from Support staff. It's been like this for quite a while too :-
