We provide dental cleanings and treatment plans to help each patient remove the tartar present and try to prevent it form returning. Dental disease is so prevalent in our patients that 90% or more have dental tartar and resulting gum inflammation and/or infection from the tartar. We provide dental discounts throughout the year when dentals are scheduled within a specific time frame from the dental exam.
Vaccination
AAHA is the only organization that accredits animal hospitals throughout the U.S. & Canada. AAHA-accredited hospitals adhere to the highest-quality standards available, which helps ensure the best care for your pet. AAHA reminds pet owners that they can help pets live healthier and longer lives by taking their pets to the veterinarian for annual physical exams, vaccinations, and dental care as well as providing pets with fresh water, a balanced diet, and exercise.
Veterinary Ophthalmology
Glaucoma testing measures the pressure in each eye quickly and painlessly using a tonometer. Undetected glaucoma leads to irreversible blindness. During a retinal exam, performed after the pupils are dilated, the veterinarian will look for evidence of bleeding, degeneration, inflammation, or detachment.
Nutritional Counseling
Our purring companions are a little harder to exercise because they tend to be content at doing nothing. Again, we have to cut back on their food intake and treats to make the biggest impact on weight loss. I recommend 1/4 to 1/3 a cup of dry cat food twice a day or 1/4 to 1/2 a can of cat food, depending on the size of the can. One must understand the small kibbles of food are calorie dense.
Comprehensive Examination

Is your dog or cat overweight? Did you know obesity in pets is a growing problem? It has been reported that 45% of dogs and 58% of cats are overweight or obese. Being overweight can cause a lot of health problems for our pets, including heart disease, respiratory disease and joint disease. Here are a few ways you can get out there and help your pet shed more than hair and get back into great shape..
FeLV/FIV testing, recommended for senior cats, tests for the feline leukemia and feline immunodeficiency viruses, which can suppress the cat’s immune system and lead to secondary infections, anemia, and even cancer.
We have a Class IV Laser which has been a great addition to our treatment modalities for infection, tissue healing and osteoarthritis. We have seen so many patients benefit from laser treatments that we recommend it for all surgical procedures and arthritic joints. It is nice to have a way to help alleviate joint pain without medications that can be harsh on the liver and kidneys, especially with older patients.

Diabetes Treatment
Thyroid Disease Treatment
Heart Disease Treatment
Blood pressure measurement lets our team check for hypertension. Just as in humans, high blood pressure in pets can lead to kidney problems, heart disease, blindness, and other complications.
Kidney Disease Treatment
A physical exam is the most important part of the senior care program. Your veterinarian will assess all body systems to check for any abnormalities. Blood chemistry tests measure levels of various substances in the blood and diagnose diseases such as diabetes, and liver and kidney failure.
A complete blood count (CBC) provides a detailed look at the blood itself and helps the doctor diagnose anemia or infection. A urinalysis gives information on kidney function and checks for urinary tract infections.
X-Ray
We are very fortunate to have digital radiography (X-ray) and Ultrasound machines to help us diagnose and treat many diseases that may get overlooked without them.
