OUR SERVICES INCLUDE
Wellness Exams
A complete yearly exam is important for monitoring the health of your pet. Our pets age at a much faster rate than people and regular exams allow for early detection and treatment of disease processes.
Canine and Feline Vaccinations
Vaccinations are one important way of preventing serious disease in your pet. Rabies vaccines are legally required for all dogs and cats in North Carolina. We recommend other vaccines based on the lifestyle, environment and risk factors of each individual pet.
Laboratory Services
Our new Vet Lab in-house laboratory allows us to process lab results quickly, so diagnosis and treatment can begin sooner. We also provide testing for heartworms, tick-borne diseases and intestinal parasites, pre-surgical testing, fungal culture and urinalysis. We utilize Idexx, an outside reference laboratory, for our more complex cases.
Radiology & Ultrasonography
Digital X-Rays and Ultrasounds help us evaluate musculoskeletal, cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, reproductive and urinary systems for disease processes.
Parasite Control
Both external parasites, like fleas, ticks and lice, and internal parasites, like heartworms or intestinal worms, can be the source of serious diseases in pets. Some of these parasites may also be contagious to people or carry diseases that may also infect people. We can recommend parasite testing, control and prevention programs for pets at all ages.
Sick Pet Care/Hospitalization
We diagnose and treat patients in all areas of medicine including infectious disease, dermatology, neurology, cardiology, gastroenterology and urinary disease. We also have regular consultation or referral to veterinary specialists when necessary.
Dentistry
Periodontal disease in animals is a serious, painful, and progressive problem that can lead to infections of the liver, heart, and kidneys if left untreated. Regular professional dental cleaning is important to maintaining your pet's health. Dental cleanings are performed under the same safe, balanced anesthesia that is used for surgical procedures. We use ultrasonic technology to clean all tooth surfaces. The teeth are then polished to help slow down reformation of plaque. We can perform minor extractions. More serious extractions, restorations or endodontics can be referred to a specialist. We can also work with you to develop a regular home care program.
Surgery and Anesthesia
We are equipped to provide a wide range of soft tissue surgeries for your pet. We can also do minor orthopedic procedures. For more complicated orthopedic and soft tissue surgeries, we may refer you to a surgical specialist. We use a combination of injectable drugs and gas anesthesia to provide a safe and pain free surgery with a quick recovery. We use electronic monitoring to assess your pet's condition during anesthesia and to ensure its safety.
Microchipping
A microchip is one of the best ways to permanently identify a pet. They assist in the return of thousands of lost and stolen pets each year. A microchip with a unique code is inserted under the skin with a needle. The chips can be read with a scanner at any animal shelter or veterinary hospital and compared to a national database.
Nutrition
We can help you make good nutritional choices for your pet based on its age, activity levels and medical condition. We also carry arange of prescription diets made for specific medical conditions.
Bathing
Bathing services are provided by appointment. We do not have a groomer on staff, so we cannot bathe animals with matted coats.Medicated baths are available for specific skin conditions.
Boarding
We do provide boarding as a service to our clients. Our kennels are climate controlled with separate areas for cats and dogs. All animals receive individual attention during the day. Dogs have the opportunity to exercise in an enclosed area at least twice daily, weather permitting.
Euthanasia Services
Saying goodbye to a beloved pet is a difficult and emotional decision. We work with clients to ensure their pet's death is as pain-free and compassionate as possible. We can also be responsible for taking care of the remains as directed by the owner.
