The veterinary medical team works together to provide the best care to your pets- technicians are the nurses/technologists who provide all of the medical care to our patients as ordered by our three vets. They are also the primary caretakers of our patients: preparing patients for surgery, helping procedures and appointments run smoothly, and ensuring that medications are given and that hospitalized patients are fed, walked, and kept comfortable. Some of the various services techs help perform include: wellness/routine care and vaccinations, in-house pharmacy, in-house laboratory, echocardiograms and abdominal ultrasounds, diagnostic and dental radiology, orthopedic/soft tissue/major organ surgery, dental cleanings/oral surgery, patient disease diagnosis and management, laser therapy, sick patient care and hospitalization, chemotherapy, boarding, and grooming. We treat dogs, cats, exotics, and pocket pets, and our techs are trained to handle them all!
