BACK! Saturday Vaccination Clinics

To help better serve our clients, we are now offering a vaccination clinic once a month on the 3rd Saturday of each month for healthy patients. Vaccination clinic appointments are strictly for vaccinations only and we request that if you have any concerns you would like to discuss with our veterinarians that you schedule a longer appointment during the week.

What is a vaccine clinic? A vaccine clinic is a 15-minute appointment with one of our veterinarians, where we conduct an annual exam and vaccinate your pet. If there are any questions or concerns we are not be able to schedule an appointment on the vaccine clinic day as those appointments require more time. We will schedule an appointment during regular hours, Monday-Friday, if you need any diagnostic services or have questions for the veterinarian.

If would like to schedule an appointment please call our veterinary hospital at (208) 888-3444.

Our veterinarians strongly encourage you to schedule regular health checks so that we can perform routine wellness exams. This is a crucial component of preventative pet health care, which can help to ensure a long and happy life for your pet. Our animal hospital’s thorough wellness exams can help to prevent serious issues such as heart disease, diabetes, dental issues, arthritis, and more. If you haven’t visited us recently, we encourage you to call to schedule your next appointment today!

Your pet’s dental health can be an incredibly important indicator of their overall health and wellness. Our veterinarians recommend regularly brushing your pet’s teeth and offering proper dental chews to ensure improved dental hygiene while at home. A dental examination will be performed as part of every general wellness exam. This will allow our veterinarians to identify any dental problems that need to be addressed for the overall health of your pet. Along with performing routine dental procedures, our veterinary clinic is also equipped to perform digital dental X-rays and surgical extractions when needed.

While there are some vaccines that all pets require, our veterinarians understand that pets have different exposure and risk levels based on age, environment, travel history, and other deciding factors. To ensure adequate protection without over-vaccinating, our veterinarians will assess and determine the best vaccination protocol for your pet. This may change over the life of your pet as their needs change.

As an important component of our comprehensive diagnostic services, our pet clinic also offers ultrasounds, which is a non-invasive imaging modality that allows our veterinarians to visualize internal organs and structures. Ultrasound enables us to image soft tissue structures in a way that radiographs (X-ray) cannot. It can often be done with little or no sedation.

By maintaining an in-house laboratory, our veterinarians are able to run a large quantity of tests and analyses directly on location, reducing the turnaround time that would be required when we have to ship samples for further analysis. In cases where more extensive testing is required, we have access to outside laboratory services. Our animal clinic’s comprehensive in-house laboratory is just one benefit we’re happy to provide to pet owners who choose our animal hospital as their pet health care destination of choice.

Through the use of personalized pain management, advanced anesthetic protocols, and state-of-the-art monitoring during every surgical procedure, our veterinary team can provide the safest and most successful veterinary surgery procedures possible. Soft tissue surgeries range from spays and neuters to tumor resection, abdominal exploratory, and other such procedures.

The same level of care, sterile environment and anesthetic care are used on the most minor to the most advanced procedures. No surgical procedure is minimized on the level of importance and we take every surgery seriously.

If you have any questions or would like to know more about our animal hospital’s soft-tissue surgical procedures, please call us at (208) 888-3444.

In specific cases, we may recommend orthopedic surgery to improve the health and comfort of you pet. If your pet is experiencing acute issues related to their bones, joints, ligaments, or tendons, surgery may be required to correct these issues. Through the use of personalized pain management, advanced anesthetic protocols and state of the art monitoring during every surgical procedure, we can provide the safest and most successful veterinary surgery procedures possible.

High-definition X-rays can serve as a crucial diagnostic tool for an accurate diagnosis before performing surgeries and procedures, especially when other veterinary diagnostic services aren’t sufficient. In cases where a physical examination, blood tests, or urinalysis are only a piece of the puzzle, digital X-rays can often provide a boost by giving increased diagnostic insights into the overall health of your pet.

Our veterinarians are extremely proud to offer Class IV Deep Tissue Laser Therapy: a modern and innovative advancement in veterinary science that has changed the course of pet health care. Laser therapy delivers deep photonic energy to your pet, assisting with rapid tissue repair, reducing inflammation, and decreasing pain. This is a quickly growing area of advanced veterinary medicine that can dramatically improve the health and comfort of your pet!

Thousands of pets are tragically lost or stolen each year, which is why our veterinary clinic has partnered with HomeAgain to offer accessible and affordable microchipping services. Microchipping allows your pet to be registered in a national database after they are implanted with a tiny chip smaller than a grain of rice. If your pet ever gets loose, runs away, or is missing for any reason, our veterinary team can work with the national database to rapidly locate and recover your pet. For both new pet owners and those who are interested in ensuring the long-term health of their pets, we highly recommend this service.

Our animal hospital offers a full in-house veterinary pharmacy to meet your pet’s prescription needs. Rapid approval and availability of your pet’s medications are tremendous benefits to any patient, whether in person or through VetSource, our online pet pharmacy. Utilizing our online pharmacy also gives you the reassurance of our assistance if any orders are incorrect.

Some pets can hide their symptoms surprisingly well, especially cats, and may actually suffer from chronic pain. When this happens, it can dramatically reduce the quality of life experienced by your pet. If you notice limping, hindered mobility, or persistent discomfort, please let our veterinarians know. During your visit, we’ll take a personalized approach to manage your pet’s pain, implementing proven multi-modal solutions that will work best for your pet’s overall health, taking their life stage and lifestyle into direct account.

End-of-life care is never an easy discussion to have, but we’ve found that adequate preparation can allow for a pet’s end-of-life stages to be as comfortable and gentle as possible. If your pet is nearing the end of their life, our veterinary team invites you to ask us about our euthanasia, cremation, and hospice services, which are all designed to make this process as comfortable for your pet as possible.
