- Parasites Treatment and ControlWe have in-house capabilities for complete routine bloodwork (CBC, blood chemistries, and hormonal assays) as well as urinalysis, fecal testing, and cytology review allowing us to provide rapid test results in most cases.
- Pain ManagementAnything that causes pain in people can be expected to cause pain in animals, although pets may not show the same symptoms of pain. Providing appropriate pain relief is a humane and caring thing to do for your pet. Recent advances in pain medications for pets have allowed for better pain control than ever before. After surgery pain medication is given on a case by case basis. Any animal that appears painful will receive appropriate additional pain medication.
- Skin Condition and Allergy TreatmentWe also offer Class IV K-Laser therapy which can be of benefit post surgically for wound healing (this is routinely performed on surgical/dental patients as indicated) as well as addressing pain management and hard to treat conditions such as feline gingivitis and canine lick granulomas.
