Dr. Spatz: Office cat/CAT scan Expert: Dr. Spatz came to us in the spring of 2013. Dr. Baird’s son had found a litter of kittens. After finding homes for all of the other kittens, Dr. Spatz was the last one left. We obviously fell in love with him and decided that he could have a home here with us. He is Mr. Personality! He is extremely curious which sometimes gets him in to trouble. He is also VERY loving and affectionate. He has been known to "dress up" on holidays and special occasions and some of his costume pictures have even been published! Thankfully, he hasn't let his "celebrity status" go to his head. 

sireac.jpg

Sir Eac: Office Cat/"Totally getting by life on his looks":  In July 2021 a litter of very sick and malnourished kittens, were abandoned at our front door.  We did our best to nurse them back to health and after finding loving homes for all of them that survived, Sir Eac never left. He and Dr. Spatz became instant friends, and we knew he had found his home with us.  He is VERY sweet but VERY mischievous and is definitely not the sharpest knife in the drawer.  He literally falls off of counters, tables, etc. on a daily basis! He is an absolute character and keeps all of us laughing.

We are pleased to announce the addition of the Companion Therapy Laser® to our practice! We are the first Veterinary practice in the region to use the Companion therapeutic laser. With the addition of the laser, pets will receive instant relief of pain, inflammation and swelling associated with soft tissue injuries, trauma, surgery and chronic everyday disorders. A relatively new branch of medicine, the Class IV laser delivers a large amount of light energy into the pet’s body. When it interacts with damaged cells, healing is accelerated and pain is virtually eliminated. As our best friends age, recover from trauma or surgery, or simply need relief from everyday aches and pains, this advanced technology offers: Drug-Free, Surgery-Free, Pain-Free Relief. We have already seen some amazing results! Feel free to contact us if you have any questions or feel that this treatment may benefit your pet!
