    Our greatest concern is the well-being of your pet. Before putting your pet under anesthesia we will perform pre-operative bloodwork and diagnostic tests to determine if your pet has any special needs and is healthy enough for anesthesia. Our laboratory is fully equipped and staffed to perform these crucial tests and the results will be immediately available to review before placing your pet under anesthesia.

    Payment policy: We accept cash, checks (w/ a DL), Master Card, Visa, Discover, Amex and Care Credit for payment of services. We cannot extend the privilege of billing services as this puts us in the position of becoming a lending institution.

  • Benefits of Laser Surgery:

    • The laser seals nerve endings, therefore reducing post-surgical discomfort.
    • The laser cauterizes small blood vessels. This reduces bleeding during surgery.
    • There is no physical contact between the laser and the patient, reducing inflammation near the incision site.
    • Laser energy acts as an antibacterial agent by producing high temperatures reducing infection.
