Our Services
Preventive Care
Routine care keeps pets healthy and helps prevent disease before it starts. We provide wellness exams, pet vaccinations, and parasite prevention customized for your pet’s age, breed, and lifestyle. Regular visits also give us the opportunity to discuss nutrition, weight management, and early signs of health issues.
Dental Care
Healthy teeth mean a healthy life. Our pet dental services include professional cleanings, dental X-rays, and treatment for gum disease. Regular oral care prevents infections that can affect the heart, liver, and kidneys — helping your pet stay pain-free and energetic.
Behavior Medicine
Behavioral changes can be signs of stress, fear, or underlying health problems. Dr. Dashley offers specialized behavior medicine for dogs, cats, and birds, using fear-free techniques, environmental adjustments, and customized treatment plans to improve your pet’s well-being and strengthen your bond.
Diagnostic Imaging & Laboratory Testing
When your pet isn’t feeling well, accurate diagnostics are key. Our in-house laboratory and advanced diagnostic imaging (including X-rays and ultrasound) help us quickly identify the cause of illness or injury so we can begin effective treatment without delay.
Conditions Treated
Our veterinarians diagnose and treat a wide range of medical and surgical conditions affecting pets of all ages. Whether your pet has allergies, infections, or chronic illness, our team provides compassionate care and long-term management to restore health and comfort.
Laboratory Services
Our in-house laboratory allows for fast and accurate diagnostic testing. From bloodwork and urinalysis to parasite screening and cytology, we can quickly identify concerns and begin treatment without delay.
Laser Pain Management
Laser therapy promotes faster healing and pain relief for pets recovering from surgery, injury, or chronic conditions like arthritis. This non-invasive treatment reduces inflammation and improves mobility naturally.
Microchipping
Microchipping provides permanent identification for your pet, increasing the chances of a safe return if they ever become lost. We use safe, quick microchip implantation and ensure your pet’s information is properly registered.
PRP Injections
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy uses your pet’s own cells to promote healing and tissue regeneration. It’s ideal for pets with joint injuries, arthritis, or surgical recovery, helping reduce pain and improve mobility.
Pet Vaccinations
Protect your pet from serious diseases with core and lifestyle-based vaccinations. Our veterinarians customize vaccine plans to your pet’s age, exposure risk, and environment for the best protection possible.
Video Otoscope & Deep Ear Cleaning
Our advanced video otoscope allows precise visualization and treatment of ear canal issues. Deep ear cleaning removes wax, debris, and infection safely—especially beneficial for pets prone to chronic ear conditions.
Wellness Care
Comprehensive wellness care focuses on prevention, nutrition, exercise, and early detection of disease. We tailor every plan to your pet’s unique needs, ensuring a happier, healthier life at every stage.
Surgery (General & Orthopedic)
Our hospital provides both general and orthopedic surgeries, performed with modern anesthetic monitoring and a strong focus on safety and comfort. Whether your pet needs a spay or neuter, mass removal, or orthopedic repair, you can trust our surgical team to provide precise, compassionate care.
Internal Medicine
For chronic or complex conditions such as diabetes, thyroid disorders, or organ disease, our internal medicine expertise ensures accurate diagnosis and tailored care plans. We use a combination of diagnostic tools and continuous monitoring to manage your pet’s health effectively.
Exotic Animal Medicine
Our veterinarians also provide specialized care for exotic pets, including reptiles, birds, and small mammals. We understand their unique needs and offer exams, diagnostics, and treatments designed specifically for non-traditional pets.
Cryosurgery & Specialty Procedures
We offer cryosurgery for the safe and effective removal of small growths or skin lesions with minimal discomfort. Our video otoscope and deep ear cleaning services help diagnose and treat chronic ear infections, restoring comfort and preventing future issues.
Advanced Anesthesia Care
Ensure the highest level of safety for your pet with real-time tele-consulting from board-certified anesthesiologists. We provide custom-tailored sedation plans and continuous specialist monitoring from induction through recovery.
Shockwave Therapy
Your pet’s safety is our priority. Through our advanced telemedicine partnership, a board-certified veterinary anesthesiologist joins your pet’s procedure via secure video. This provides specialist-level oversight, real-time vital monitoring, and custom anesthesia plans to ensure the safest possible surgical experience.
