Since 1984 our facilities have been ever changing to better accommodate the needs of our clients.  We are currently undergoing a complete rebuild of our main practice and look forward to moving out of our temporary buildings very soon!  Our facilities will include five small animal examination rooms, in-house laboratory, federally accredited coggins testing laboratory, pharmacy, small animal surgical prep and dental suite, two small animal surgical suites as well an equine recovery room, equine stocks, equine stalls, small animal boarding facilities, and an isolation ward.  

In-House Laboratory

 

laboratory

Our in-house laboratory consist of the most up to date Idexx ProCyte, Catalyst, SNAP Reader, and VetLab Station.  Using SmartLink, your pets comprehensive lab results are transferred directly to your pets record for accuracy in reporting.  Our technicians are certified on each piece of equipment through online courses at the Idexx Learning Center.

The in-house laboratory enables us to get quick results on routine heartworm and intestinal parasite tests, as well as pre-surgical blood work.  Our ability to test in-house means your Veterinarian gets the information necessary for quick diagnosis and treatment recommendations, reducing treatment cost and stress on your pet.

Pharmacy

All prescription refill requests are reviewed at no additional fee by a doctor to ensure safe administration.  

Ambulatory Vehicles

Farm calls compose a large percentage of our practice and we have two fully equipped veterinary trucks capable of handling routine equine heatlh care as well as emergencies.  We are also equipped with portable x-ray equipment for use in the field when necessary.
We provide a wide range of other services including dentistry, lameness evaluation, vaccination programs, nutritional consultation, minor surgical procedures, neonatal care, pre-purchase exams, and extensive medical treatment. 

Surgical Prep/Dental Area

Dental cleanings have become one of the most common procedures performed. It is enormously important to the health of our patients-dental infections are painful, and associated bacterial infection may spread to internal organs such as the heart and kidneys. Dental Prophylaxis and extractions are performed under general anesthesia.
A routine dental cleaning includes scaling with an ultrasonic device, application of a revealing stain to identify residual tartar-which is subsequently removed and polishing to leave a smooth non-adherent surface. 

 Surgical Suites

 equine-surgery

Many clients have questions about anesthesia. We make every effort to minimize the risks of anesthesia by performing a thorough physical exam and encouraging blood work prior to anesthesia. We use the most modern equipment to monitor patients during all anesthetic procedures with the use of pulse oximetry, EKG, audible respiratory monitor and blood pressure monitoring every 60 seconds. Cats and dogs that are to be anesthetized for planned surgical or diagnostic procedures should not have any food after 8 pm the night before and water should be taken away first thing in the morning.
