Services
Pet Wellness Exams
Regular wellness exams help detect health issues early through comprehensive physical assessments. Our veterinarians evaluate pets' overall health, discuss behavioral changes, and recommend preventative care tailored to each animal's age and lifestyle. These exams form the foundation for maintaining long-term health through early intervention and customized vaccination schedules.
Pet Vaccination
We provide core and lifestyle-based vaccination programs to protect pets from preventable diseases. Our team develops customized schedules for puppies, kittens, and adult pets while explaining each vaccine's benefits and risks. Services include rabies, distemper, parvovirus, and rattlesnake vaccines, with proper documentation for travel and boarding requirements.
Pet Dental Care
Comprehensive dental services prevent and treat oral diseases through professional cleanings, digital radiography, and surgical extractions. Our team addresses gingival recession, tartar buildup, and periodontal disease while educating owners on home care techniques. Advanced equipment ensures accurate diagnosis and treatment of hidden dental issues beneath the gumline.
Pet Microchipping
Permanent microchip implantation provides reliable pet identification that cannot be lost like collars. The quick, minimally invasive procedure offers lifelong security by linking pets to owner contact information through national recovery databases. We register chips and update contact details to maximize reunion chances if pets become lost.
Pet Urgent Care
We handle urgent medical situations with immediate attention for injuries, poisoning, and acute illnesses. Our facility manages critical cases during operating hours while providing referral options for after-hours emergencies. Services include triage assessment, stabilization, and follow-up care coordination for pets requiring specialized treatment.

Horrible. Every. Single. Time. I've called over the past 2 years they're always "too busy" to see my pet when she's having an emergency issue. Trying to book an appointment is impossible, and even if you do get an appointment they still make you wait and the treatment is basically, "I don't know what's causing that, here's a bill". It just seems like they guess about healthcare. Front desk staff is awful. COVID is not an excuse anymore to be this unorganized.

I'm visiting from out of town and needed an appointment for my dog on a Sunday morning. The vet here agreed to take a look at her between appointments even though they were fully booked. Everyone was very friendly at the hospital, and the vet called once he'd had a chance to look at her to go over any questions I might have. Super appreciative that they made room to see me, and I'd have no problem recommending!
