Some health conditions require immediate intervention and treatment in order to properly treat your pet.  Traditional medical options are sometimes the best option to avoid a life-threatening crisis.  We will always provide you with treatment choices, along with our recommendations for the plan we feel is in the best interest of your pet.

We will always support and recommend the use of appropriate diet and other holistic treatments to aid in the healing process.  Holistic medicine can help your pet heal faster and prevent medical issues from recurring.

Traditional medical services we offer include:

• Physical and Wellness Exams - Physical exams are important for pets of all ages.  Young pets need to be checked for proper weight, growth, and development.  Pets age much more quickly than humans do. By age two, many pets have almost reached adulthood. At age four they are entering middle age, and by age seven many dogs are entering their senior years. We recommend exams every 6 months to keep your pet in optimal health and detect health problems early. Our exams include checking teeth, ears, eyes, heart, lungs, abdomen, muscles, joints, and skin. In addition, we will do, if indicated, blood work, x-rays, blood pressure, or ultrasound diagnostics.
• Medications - sometimes traditional medications are the most effective way of treating your pet
• Emergency care - injuries and sudden illnesses may need urgent care and treatment.  We are available to see emergencies during any of our regular office hours
  
• Nutritional - proper nutrition is the foundation of good health.  We offer a nutritional consultation program to help you feed your pet in a way that fits its needs and your budget and lifestyle
• Behavior - do you sometimes find your pet's behavior frustrating?  Ask us for advice and therapeutic options.
