To schedule a technician appointment, your pet's annual exam must be up-to-date within the year. It's important to note that a tech appointment does not cover an annual exam conducted by a doctor. Instead, these appointments are designed for updating vaccines, trimming nails, or performing other quick procedures that a technician can carry out under the supervision of a doctor.

February is National Pet Dental Health Month! Maintaining your pet's dental health is crucial; if uncared for, it can lead to future complications. If you observe your pet dropping food, showing disinterest in meals, or experiencing weight loss, their teeth may be the culprit. Dental surgery, conducted under anesthesia, enables us to clean their teeth and extract any problematic ones. If you suspect your pet has dental disease, it’s important to seek veterinary attention promptly. Untreated dental issues can result in serious systemic conditions, such as kidney and liver disease.
