We have a veterinarian and personnel on duty 7 days a week who are trained and equipped to handle any urgent care your pet has. Usually an emergency team consists of at least one veterinarian and several nurses working together to save a pet's life. Emergencies can be things such a snail bait poisoning, hit by car, and chocolate ingestion. If you ever feel that your pet needs emergency treatment do not hesitate to call or come in immediately. If possible it is best to call before coming in so that a team member can advise you on your particular emergency.

We perform a variety of orthopedic surgery including ACL repair (Anterior Cruciate Ligament), Patellar Luxation, and Fractures.

Technology
We offer a comprehensive diagnostic lab, state-of-the-art X-ray and ultrasound units, EKG monitoring, endoscopy (for a closer, magnified look inside the ears, and upper respiratory tract), and lab equipment to process and evaluate blood, urine and fecal samples. We also are linked via the internet to regional veterinary diagnostic labs and worldwide to the Veterinary Information Network for consultation.

Our animal friends suffer from a variety of acute and chronic illness – some of which may benefit not only from traditional western medicine and surgery, but also from acupuncture. For example, chronic arthritis and post-operative orthopedic surgical patients benefit greatly from our use of veterinary acupuncture.
