Services
Our staff's goal is to provide excellent patient care and useful client education. The Front Desk staff (Reception) will book your appointments, answer your initial questions, and check you in and out. Our Exam Room Assistants and Veterinary Technicians will take a brief history to find out what concerns you may have regarding your pet and his or her care.
We all know that "an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure". Annual health check exams ("Wellness Visits") are a chance for us to assess your pet's overall health including heart and lung function, mobility and gait, dental health and skin and coat condition.
We will discuss what vaccinations are needed based on your pet's lifestyle and determine the best internal and external parasite prevention products for your pet as well address dietary and behavior concerns.Annual tick borne disease screening is recommended for all pets and more extensive bloodwork (CBC, Organ Function) may be indicated.

When your pet is sick or injured, we are here to help. Same day appointments are usually available for current clients. Our doctors treat all types of problems, from vomiting and diarrhea, to ear infections, skin problems, bite wounds, urinary tract infections, or limping. Our in house laboratory testing allows us to find answers quickly, while for more complicated issues we may send samples to various outside diagnostic labs.
We offer state of the art equipment for imaging your pet's internal organs as well as bones, joints and teeth. We have digital full body Xray capability as well as digital dental Xrays. Dental Xrays and certain body Xrays require your pet to be sedated or anesthetized. Dr. Lee offers ultrasound examinations of the abdomen, helpful in diagnosing many disease conditions.
Dental disease has become the most common health problem affecting dogs and cats. Most pets over the age of two years have some degree of dental disease affecting the teeth or gums. The untreated disease leads to painful periodontal disease then tooth and bone loss. It can also contribute to liver, kidney and heart disease as well as the risk of jaw fractures and oral cancer.

Dr Lee is the best!! He is so good with the animals. He really cares about your pet, even calling to follow up on your pet after a sick visit or surgery. You never feel rushed or like a number and dr Lee and the staff take time to thoroughly explain everything to you. I have recommended Dr Lee to several friends looking for a vet for their pets.

Positive: Professionalism, Responsiveness, Value
Dr. Lee was so compassionate! He allowed me to bring my hurting cat at the end of his day and was so patient and gentle and professional. I got a same day appointment. My own vet would make her wait a month to be seen. I couldn't be happier with the whole staff. Nice and clean facility. Prices so reasonable.

My cat was sick and I was very pleased with the care the nurse and veterinarian provided. My cat was seen promptly and I understood the diagnosis and the medications he was prescribed. They were very thorough and answered all my questions!
I will return to this location again. I was very happy with staff and their genuine concern for my pet!
