Preventive Care

• Dental Care
  As they age, all pets will accumulate plaque and hardened calculus on their teeth, and most will develop dental and/or gingival (gum) disease. At HVC we provide products and services to help keep your pet’s mouth healthy, and prevent mouth pain, infection and tooth loss. Dental cleanings are performed under anesthesia, with a thorough exam, cleaning, polishing of the teeth, and extractions when necessary. Proper home care of the mouth after a cleaning can keep your pet’s mouth healthy longer, helping to prevent associated disease involving the heart or kidneys.

• Comprehensive Examination
  HVC offers a choice of weekday morning, afternoon or Saturday scheduled appointments, as well as the convenience of a patient drop-off option to accommodate busy pet owners. We will take a complete history, perform a thorough physical examination, and suggest any further testing or procedures if necessary to arrive at an accurate diagnosis.

Illness Treatment

• Parasites Treatment and Control
  Our clinic maintains a full inventory of pharmaceutical products for your pet’s needs. We dispense a wide array of prescription medications, the best options for flea and tick control, and effective and affordable products for heartworm prevention and internal parasite treatment. We also stock shampoos, over-the-counter pet health maintenance products, and the highly respected line of Hill’s Prescription Diets and Science Diet pet foods.
• Pain Management
  Aseptic surgical conditions are maintained, and patients are monitored throughout surgery and recovery. Proper pain control medications are used to alleviate pain, provide comfort and contribute to faster healing. The safety and wellbeing of your pet are our highest surgical priorities. If your pet requires a surgery that we do not provide onsite, we will facilitate arrangements with a specialty surgeon, and in many cases follow-up can be done at HVC.

  Spaying, neutering, abscess treatment, laceration repair, soft tissue procedures such as lump and mass removals, bladder stone removal, and gastrointestinal surgery, among others.
