Pain Management
Our comprehensive pain management program addresses both acute and chronic pain in pets through multimodal approaches. We utilize oral medications, physical rehabilitation, and advanced surgical techniques tailored to each animal's specific condition. Our team actively identifies hidden pain indicators during examinations and educates owners about behavioral changes that may signal discomfort in their pets.
Regenerative Therapy
This innovative treatment uses platelet-rich plasma and stem cell therapy to accelerate healing for soft tissue injuries and osteoarthritis. Our minimally invasive procedures harness pets' natural healing mechanisms while laser therapy reduces inflammation and promotes recovery. Each treatment plan is customized based on the animal's specific musculoskeletal needs and overall health status.
Veterinary Surgery
We perform both routine and complex surgical procedures following AAHA guidelines to ensure optimal outcomes. Our surgical capabilities include spays/neuters, mass removals, orthopedic repairs, and emergency exploratory surgeries. All patients receive comprehensive pre-anesthetic evaluations and continuous monitoring by dedicated veterinary technicians throughout the procedure.
Dental Care
Our dental services encompass comprehensive oral examinations, professional cleanings, and advanced periodontal treatments. Each anesthetized dental procedure includes pre-operative bloodwork, EKG monitoring, and full-mouth radiography. Our team addresses dental abnormalities while emphasizing preventive care to maintain oral health and prevent systemic complications from periodontal disease.
Diagnostic Imaging
We utilize digital radiography, ultrasound, and echocardiography for accurate internal diagnostics. Our imaging capabilities enable early detection of organ abnormalities, skeletal issues, and cardiovascular conditions. Board-certified specialists interpret complex cases while we provide immediate image sharing with referral clinics for collaborative care planning.

I've been bringing my pets here for over 30 years. The doctors and staff are very caring and treat my cats like family!

Report
Took our cat in for her first appt. didn't even do any blood work. After that they gave us expired meds. Seriously? Is it that hard to check if it's expired or not? They had it in a bag that said it didn't expire for a year but on the med itself it said it was expired. Than when I took my car back, they looked at her for 3 min. Than decided that she needed a shot and another med to help. How can you tell! You didn't even look at her long enough to know that her infection is worse and her bumps are worse too! Definitely don't recommend.

Report
Took my boxer for a walk on a late Sunday morning and she had blood in her pee. Took her to this clinic because my regular vet was closed. Got there at 1:30 pm, a half hour before they normally close up, they took her in and examined her. They were kind to me, upfront with cost, and had a diagnosis and treatment plan ready for me so I could take my buddy home. Was very impressed by professionalism and kindness of staff.
