Our clinic has an amazing support staff team who are highly skilled and trained to support our doctors, with ongoing continuing education required for both credentialed and non-credentialed staff. Each doctor is assigned two technicians specifically designated for your needs for the day, with additional floater technicians to help out with keeping the day running smoothly. Our reception staff is also fully staffed and highly experienced when it comes to appropriate appointment scheduling and client communication.
The building, which was designed by veterinarians, offers a large lobby with separate waiting areas for canine and feline patients. There is also a separate wing of two exam rooms completely dedicated to our feline patients. The main part of our hospital boasts five more exam rooms, one being a larger procedure room that allows us to do ultrasounds, acupuncture, laser therapy and much more. We are proud to be a Certified Feline Friendly Practice and have many Fear Free certified doctors and technicians. We are equipped with the usual full in-house lab diagnostics, digital radiography, a large double surgical suite, a spacious treatment room with two wet tables, two dental units with digital dental radiography, two procedure lift tables and four computer stations for doctors to easily work at while examining their patients.
