Lobby
Our receptionists are front and center when you walk in the door, ready to greet and assist you.
Although the lobby has undergone a few minor changes since Covid we are back to open door policy and it is great to see everyone again. We may be able to bring back our waiting area in the future. Our double-door entryway can be tight at times but it keeps pets safe inside to minimize escapes. Your veterinary diets and other products are over the counter upon walk-in. Prescription drugs and parasite control are available by request at the front desk.
Exam Rooms
Owners and pets can interact with their veterinarians in a private and safe setting. Most exam rooms come equipped with medical supplies so that the pets can stay with their owners if that is safer and more comfortable for everyone involved. Checkouts can be done in the rooms with our portable debit machines so that you don’t have to worry about your pet at the front desk.
Treatment Room
This is the behind-the-scenes of our vet clinic. Pet handling including blood draws, dermatology testing, grooming, physical examinations, surgical preparation and recovery, emergency protocols, and many other procedures all happen within this room.
Cat Room
No one prefers to leave their pet with us and would much rather stay with them but our large cat kennels have enough space for a bed, litter box, food/water bowls, and toys. We can see the kennels from our workspace in the treatment room so our patients are monitored safely.
Co-species Room
This room hosts cats that would prefer to be away from other cats, or if they need somewhere quieter. We also use it for kenneling small dogs that need to be monitored more often.
Dog Runs
Our tall and long canine runs allow space for your dog to move, jump, recover, and interact with our staff. The chainlink doors provide a more open feeling so your pet does not feel confined, and they can see past their kennel, into the hallway and rooms beyond. Bring your dog’s bed and all of their comforts for their stay with us to help them feel more comfortable and safe.
Surgery Room
Our surgery room allows our veterinarians to perform special, routine, or dental procedures in privacy without all of the chaos that can come with being behind the scenes at a vet clinic. Sterile instruments, oxygen tubes, heart rate monitoring, respiratory readers, anesthetic machines and so much more all go into ensuring your pet’s procedure runs smoothly and you have peace of mind knowing that your pet is being taken care of.
X-ray Room
With two radiography machines and an ultrasound, our technicians and veterinarians come here to get images of your pet that can show things such as infection, foreign bodies, fluid buildup, broken bones, litter counts and so much more. Our safety gear hangs on the back of the door that we put on to protect us against radiation. We have a new dental radiography machine and system update to ensure everything is the best we can offer for your pet’s dental procedure.
Offices
The offices are the workstations for our veterinarians and support staff to get notes entered, research done, phone calls made, and inventory updated. Relatively away from the occasional chaos that is clinic life, our vets are responsible for keeping your pet’s medical records up to date and accurate, including physical findings, diagnostic testing, and client communication.
