Scheduled or emergency.
Regular vaccinations protect dogs and cats from a variety of diseases. Since no single vaccination program is ideal for every pet, we work closely with you to determine the specific vaccinations your pet needs to stay healthy.
Regular dental exams and cleanings are essential to your pet’s well-being. If dental disease is left untreated, the risk of heart, kidney, and liver disease may increase.
Thorough dental cleaning and evaluation require anaesthesia to allow examination and treatment below the gumline.
Every pet has unique nutritional needs. We carry a wide selection of everyday and veterinary therapeutic diets, and our veterinarian can recommend the most appropriate food for your pet’s health and stage of life.
We dispense prescriptions and refills for a wide range of conditions, and our veterinarian reviews and monitors your pet’s medications so their treatment stays safe and effective.
We recommend annual wellness exams for all dogs and cats. Our veterinarians perform thorough physical examinations, review your pet’s medical history, and discuss any health concerns you may have, using in-house lab services and digital X-rays to detect issues early.
Parasites can affect your pet at any point in their life — and some may even be transmitted to humans. We’ll work with you to develop the best prevention plan to keep your pet happy and healthy for as long as possible.
As your pet ages, frequent veterinary visits become essential for monitoring their health. We provide comfortable, compassionate care throughout their golden years, including special care and end-of-life services.
For pets who find clinic visits stressful, our veterinarian can visit you at home to provide wellness exams, immunizations, and diagnostic testing in familiar surroundings.
Comprehensive care before, during, and after pregnancy, including pre-breeding exams (for licensed breeders), pregnancy monitoring, and litter health checks.
Our digital X-ray machine delivers quick and accurate results, while ultrasonography lets us examine your pet’s internal health without any invasive procedures.
Our hospital is equipped with modern veterinary technology so we can diagnose accurately, treat efficiently, and keep your pet safe and comfortable.
Targeted freezing treatment
Our cryotherapy pen uses extreme cold to treat selected small skin growths, such as certain warts, skin tags, and benign lesions. It allows targeted treatment with no cutting. Our veterinarian first examines the growth to determine whether freezing, biopsy, or surgical removal is the most appropriate option.
Support for arthritis and pain management
Therapeutic laser treatment uses targeted light energy as a non-invasive addition to your pet’s care plan. It may help manage discomfort associated with arthritis and selected muscle or soft-tissue conditions. Our veterinarian assesses whether laser therapy is suitable and combines it with other treatments to support your pet’s comfort and mobility.
Breathing support during every surgery, just like in human hospitals
Our veterinary ventilator assists or controls your pet’s breathing when additional support is needed during general anaesthesia. It helps move air and oxygen into the lungs and remove carbon dioxide. Our team adjusts the settings to your pet’s needs and monitors breathing throughout the procedure.
Precision vessel sealing for most routine and non-routine surgeries
LigaSure uses controlled energy and pressure to seal blood vessels during surgery. It helps minimize bleeding and can reduce the time needed to secure vessels during suitable procedures, including selected spay and neuter surgeries. This technology supports precise, efficient surgical care.
Timely insight into your pet’s health
Our in-house blood-testing equipment helps assess blood cell counts and important health indicators, including kidney and liver markers, blood sugar, and electrolytes. Results help our veterinarians investigate illness, evaluate pets before anaesthesia, and monitor ongoing conditions. Testing on-site supports timely treatment decisions.
Comprehensive oral care
Our dental suite brings together equipment for professional teeth cleaning, polishing, and dental procedures. It allows our team to remove plaque and tartar above and below the gumline, assess oral health, and perform extractions when needed. Dental procedures are performed under general anaesthesia with monitoring and appropriate pain management.
A clearer view below the gumline
Dental X-rays reveal tooth roots and the surrounding jawbone — areas that cannot be fully assessed during a visual examination. They help our veterinarians identify hidden problems such as root infections, bone loss, fractured roots, and tooth resorption. These images guide treatment decisions and help assess extraction sites.
