Long before scientists began anatomy as we know it today, traditional Chinese medicine had mapped out a system of points and pathways on the body. They understood as early as eight thousand years ago that by stimulating specific points on the surface of the body, they could find relief from pain and disease.
Dental care is a very important part of a pet's total health plan. We offer the latest dental equiptment. Digital dental radiographs are performed on each animal undergoing a dental procedure. Teeth are cleaned with an ultrasonic scaler then polished to leave them pearly white. We offer a restorative sealant procedure to help repair damaged tooth enamel to its normal function.
Safety is our biggest concern while performing anesthesia and surgery on all pets. Our surgery suite is designed with your pet's safety in mind. Prior to surgery, a physical exam and lab work are performed on pets to ensure they do not have any underlying health concerns. We use the latest in monitoring equipment to monitor heart rate, respiration, blood oxygen, EKG, blood pressure and temperature while pets are undergoing surgery.
We use ultrasound technology to create images (or sonograms) of your pet's body for an accurate analysis. Ultrasound provides us with a means of non-invasive evaluation of your pet's physical condition. From emergencies to organ health, we can see below the surface with our ultrasound equipment to provide quality veterinary care for your pet's wellbeing.

I have brought my dog here since she was a puppy and they always take good care of her. They take time to answer questions and refer me to specialists when it was required for alergy testing. Even after moving near Hutch I drive back here as their service prices are better and they are a good vet.

We came in for some tests after going to the emergency vet a week prior. All of the staff was incredibly kind and helpful. It was LEAGUES cheaper than the other vet. I know emergency vets are expensive, but the one test we got was $63 compared to $311 at Bluepearl. Would 100% recommend.

I love this place! It is not our main vet, but we have used them a few times for more urgent matters that arise. Today was no different, we have a dog who woke up and his whole side of his face swollen. Our vet did not open for an hour after the Buffalo one. We called they got him in this morning. They said if it was a tooth they would not have time today to do it. They checked, it was, and they worked him in. Once they got him under anesthetic it was worse then expected. They did what was needed, and he will be okay! His human child is so relived after she got him back in her arms! Thanks again

Friendly staff and amazing Dr's. They helped save our 3 year old German Shepherd and always find space to get her in when needed. Couldn't have found a better Vet. We have used many but have finally found our forever Vet! They also see our Great Parenese and our cat, they are great with all of them! Overall affordable for a Veterinarian as well.

We brought our dog in for a neuter. They did a good job. He also got a nail trim, up to date on his shots, and tea and flick pill. The only thing I wish they would of done is give us better instructions on aftercare for the neuter. Didn't explain in person really what to expect.

Pup had an ear infection but couldn't get into my regular vet and was told to try finding another one to get him in. They got me in sooner than any place I called. Even though I'm not a "regular", they treated me like I was. It was during Covid so I was pretty nervous not even being able to go in with him, but the vet called me while I was waiting outside and talked to me for a half hour about all my questions which were not all related to the ear infection (first time dog owner, I have no clue what I'm doing 🤦). Loved the patience they had with me! And when we went for his free re-check, he
