Pet Wellness Exams
Our comprehensive nose-to-tail wellness exams detect early health issues in pets. Veterinarians perform age-specific assessments and vaccinations to prevent diseases. Regular checkups help maintain optimal health through lifestyle recommendations and nutritional counseling. This proactive approach extends pets' lifespans while improving their quality of life through early intervention.
Veterinary Surgery
We perform routine and advanced surgical procedures using modern equipment. Services include soft tissue surgery, orthopedic repairs, and dental operations. Pre-anesthetic evaluations ensure patient safety while post-operative care focuses on pain management. Our surgical team handles emergency cases like foreign body removal and trauma repair with 24/7 critical care support.
Emergency Care
24/7 emergency services treat urgent medical conditions including trauma, poisoning, and breathing difficulties. Our facility handles critical cases with blood analysis, radiography, and surgical interventions. For complex emergencies, we coordinate with Charleston Veterinary Referral Center while providing immediate stabilization care for pets during after-hours crises.
Pet Boarding
Our clean, temperature-controlled boarding facilities offer separate spaces for cats and dogs. Pets receive personalized attention with regular playtime and medication administration. Boarding includes access to veterinary care if needed. We require up-to-date vaccinations and provide pre-boarding exams to ensure guest pets' health and safety during their stay.
Diagnostic Testing
Advanced diagnostic capabilities include digital radiography, ultrasound, and in-house lab testing. These tools help identify internal injuries, organ dysfunction, and chronic conditions. Specialized tests like tonometry and EKGs assess eye pressure and heart health. Diagnostic imaging supports accurate treatment planning for both routine and emergency veterinary cases.
