Services Please note, our practice
is limited to treating dogs and cats.
Diagnostic and Therapeutic
Services Our
hospital is equipped to provide diagnostic and therapeutic services
to care for your pets' complete health care needs. We have an
extensive in house laboratory that allows us to do pre-anesthetic
or diagnostic screens, without having to wait for results from an
outside laboratory. Electrocardiography
Services We
provide ECG services on-site as well as consultations with
cardiology specialists. We currently screen all patients
undergoing anesthesia, at no charge, as a value added service
to our clients. Pharmacy We
maintain a complete inventory of pharmaceuticals, vitamins,
shampoos and heartworm preventatives to meet the needs of your
pet. Animal nutrition has made great strides in recent
years. We offer a complete line of specialized veterinary
diets that are taylored for the many specific medical conditions
seen in dogs and cats. With our guidance, a safe and
effective flea and tick control program can be individualized for
your pets. |

Microchips Microchipping involves placing a
small transceiver under the skin of your dog. This chip sends out a
unique identifier that can be read by a scanner. This provides
positive identification of your pet. After placing the chip, you
register your pet with HomeAgain, which maintains a database of
yours and your pet’s information. Should your pet get lost, any
shelter or veterinarian with a scanner can identify your pet, and
help you recover them. These chips have also been used in court,
when an ownership dispute occurs. We highly recommend all dogs be
microchipped. |
 |
Surgical Services Our
state-of-the-art surgical suite provides for the performance of a
wide variety of surgical procedures. Anesthesia We
utilize the safest available anesthetics to provide that extra
margin of safety, especially for our older or high-risk patients.
Using the most modern equipment, the patient's vital signs are
monitored during all anesthetic procedures. |
Radiology Services Our
on-site, modern, X-ray equipment provides high quality radiographs
to aid in the diagnosis of many disorders.
Digital capabilities allow us to send films to a specialist via the
internet when needed. |

Ultrasound and Echocardiographic
Procedures Ultrasound is a non-invassive way to look inside an
animal. Being able to see organs as they function provides
invaluable information for the diagnosis and treatment of numerous
diseases. Often, little or no sedation is required, making
this a very safe and painless procedure for your pet. |
Dentistry Often
overlooked, preventative dental care can help your pet live a
longer and healthier life. We provide complete dental
prophylaxis, and recommend it be done at least once a year starting
at age 3. ReferralsWe have an excellent working relationship with numerous
specialists in the fields of internal medicine, surgery,
cardiology, dermatology, and ophthalmology. These specialists all
work within the Richmond area, and provide a valuable service to
our clients, when needed. They are all board certified, which means
that they have spent 4 to 6 years, after graduating from veterinary
school, to study in their chosen areas, and then had to pass a
rigorous board exam to become certified. The Richmond community is
very fortunate to have this expertise available to
them. Emergency Care Please
