Acupuncture and Eastern Medicine

Developed over 6000 years ago in China, the same conditions people are treated for can be managed in our pets. Rather than focusing on specific disease signs (Western Medicine), Eastern medical philosophy is to address balance within the body and overall health. Insertion of needles at specific points on the body (on pathways called meridians), diet and nutrition modification, and supplementation with ancient herbal preparations we are able to manage pain, a number of metabolic issue (kidney failure, diabetes, thyroid problems, and seizures to name a few) and even help pets with anxiety issues. Sessions typically last an hour, and most pets remain completely relaxed for the treatment.

Hydrotherapy and Rehabilitation services

The underwater treadmill is a great way to get your pet back on all 4! Whether recovering from an orthopedic surgery, needing some activity to help combat arthritis, or just to drop a few pounds, exercise in water is a safe, effective alternative to activity on dry land.

Additional Services

Preventative Medicine

Research has shown that preventing a disease, or treating a condition before it becomes a problem, will dramatically improve the quality of a pet’s life and lengthen time we spend with them.

Annual Examinations

Not just taking the temperature and giving shots! Our pets will age much faster than we do, so it is important that they have a comprehensive physical examination at least once a year.

Geriatric Care

Old age is not a disease, and many of the signs we attribute to aging can actually be treated or prevented!

Laboratory Diagnostics

From routine blood work and parasite exams, to in-depth analysis on machines on site, we can quickly run laboratory tests that take others 24 hours or more to perform. When your best friend is sick, every second counts!

General Medicine

Even with proper preventative medicine, our pets can get sick. We have the tools and knowledge to diagnose, treat, and manage even complicated medical issues. Diabetes, thyroid disorders, and cancer are but a few of a long list of complicated medical cases we are prepared to treat.

General Surgery

"Routine" or not, surgery is scary! We meet and exceed safety guidelines for surgical procedures, from check-in to check-out. State-of-the-art monitoring equipment and a highly trained staff ensure safety for your pet, and rigorous pain management protocols focus on comfort and recovery.

Ultrasound

This completely non-invasive technology allows the veterinarian to “see” internal structures with great accuracy. Thanks to the internet and a network of board-certified radiologists throughout the country, most ultrasound studies can be viewed by a specialist within hours of submission.

Dentistry

Not just a cosmetic consideration! The health of our pets mouths are directly related to their overall health. Many liver, kidney, and heart problems can be prevented with proper oral hygiene.

Thank you for taking such good care of Wilco when our friend had to bring him in for an evaluation. We were out of the country and worried about him but we knew he was in good hands with Dr. Carson and the team!
