Pocket Pets

Pocket pets refer to smaller household pets such as guinea pigs, rabbits, hamsters, mice, rats, gerbils, and hedgehogs. Each pet is different and requires different care. We will guide you in your pet’s care, provide helpful tips for keeping your pet safe and offer treatments (such as vaccination, parasite screening, and spay/neuter) to keep your pet healthy.

Pain Management

Our veterinarians are committed to pinpointing the source of your pet's discomfort and helping you understand how to identify signs of pain as animals instinctively hide pain from humans. Pain management is one of our primary considerations when treating a pet for any medical condition.

Oncology

A cancer diagnosis for your pet can be scary. Our veterinary team is here to help guide you in finding the right treatment for your pet. We have extensive experience in treating pet cancers (and almost every pet can be helped to some degree!) For some pets, that may mean a cure; for others, we focus on palliative treatments that provide an improved quality of life.

Ophthalmology

If you are concerned about your pet’s eyes or vision, we can help. Our team diagnoses and treats a variety of ophthalmological issues, including but not limited to, dry eyes, cataracts, corneal infection or trauma, and glaucoma. It is important to report any changes in your pet’s eyes or vision during their routine veterinary visits.

Endocrinology

Endocrinology is focused on the key glands of your pet's endocrine system: the pituitary, thyroid, parathyroid, pancreas, adrenals, ovaries, and testes. Releasing hormones directly into the bloodstream, they orchestrate the regulation of essential bodily functions. Early detection of disorders within your pet's endocrine system is crucial to allow proper treatment to begin.

Acupuncture

Acupuncture, a therapeutic technique involving the insertion of fine needles into specific points on the body, is an excellent way to alleviate pain and inflammation in pets. It's particularly effective for managing common pet conditions such as arthritis, developmental bone issues, disc disease, and tendon or ligament injuries.

Laser Therapy

Laser therapy, a gentle and non-invasive option, often complements physical therapy or rehabilitation for pets. It's a pain-free way to reduce inflammation, alleviate pain, and enhance healing. This treatment is good for post-surgical patients, and pets with chronic arthritis, skin conditions, muscle strains and sprains, joint or disc disease, wounds, bites and burns.

Rabbit Care

Rabbits require special care and are susceptible to a variety of diseases and conditions, including overgrown teeth, hairballs, parasites, and cancer. Because they tend to hide signs of illness or pain, we suggest bringing your furry friend in for regular dental check-ups and having them spayed or neutered. Count on our team to provide comprehensive care for your rabbit.
