Smith Veterinary Hospital, A Thrive Pet Healthcare Partner, Clinic

We provide thorough Comprehensive Physical Exams for pets of all ages, assessing their overall health from nose-to-tail, including skin, eyes, ears, teeth, heart, lungs, and abdomen. These exams help detect early signs of illness or disease while ensuring your pet’s vaccinations, microchipping (if needed), and preventive care are up to date.

We offer specialized Senior Pet Wellness Care, including twice-yearly exams, tailored diagnostics (bloodwork, urinalysis), and personalized recommendations to address age-related health concerns. Senior pets (typically over 7 years) receive focused attention to maintain their quality of life.

We administer Core Vaccinations for dogs and cats, including rabies, distemper, parvovirus (for dogs), and FVRCP (feline respiratory vaccine). These vaccines are essential for preventing serious diseases and are updated during wellness exams to ensure optimal protection.

We offer Heartworm Testing & Prevention to safeguard your dog against this potentially fatal disease spread by mosquitoes. Annual testing and preventive medications are recommended for all dogs, regardless of lifestyle, as heartworm can be asymptomatic in early stages.

We provide Flea & Tick Prevention solutions tailored to your pet’s needs, including oral and topical treatments. Fleas and ticks not only cause discomfort but also transmit diseases like Lyme disease and Ehrlichiosis, making prevention critical for year-round protection.

We offer Microchipping & Registration as a permanent form of identification for pets. Microchips increase the likelihood of reuniting lost pets with their families and can be updated during wellness exams or separately by appointment.

We provide Nutritional Counseling & Weight Management to help your pet maintain a healthy weight through personalized diet plans, portion control guidance, and recommendations for high-quality pet food. Obesity can lead to serious health issues like diabetes and joint problems.

We perform Parasite Deworming during wellness exams or as needed to treat intestinal parasites detected through fecal testing. Regular deworming is essential for pets, especially those with outdoor access or symptoms like diarrhea or weight loss.

We conduct In-House Bloodwork, including Complete Blood Counts (CBC) and chemistry panels, to monitor your pet’s organ function, detect early signs of disease (e.g., diabetes, kidney disease), and guide treatment plans. Annual bloodwork is recommended for middle-aged and senior pets.

We offer Urinalysis as part of our diagnostic services to screen for urinary tract infections, kidney disease, diabetes, and crystals or stones. This test is particularly valuable for senior pets or those showing signs of discomfort during urination.

We provide Fecal Testing to detect intestinal parasites (e.g., roundworms, hookworms) and ensure your pet’s digestive health. Fecal samples are analyzed during wellness exams or when symptoms like diarrhea or weight loss are present.

We utilize Digital X-Rays to diagnose conditions such as fractures, arthritis, heart disease, and foreign objects. Our in-house radiography allows for quick results and tailored treatment plans, whether for acute injuries or chronic issues.

We offer Ultrasound Imaging to evaluate abdominal organs (e.g., liver, kidneys, spleen), reproductive health, and cardiac function. Ultrasounds are non-invasive and provide detailed images for diagnosing conditions like tumors, cysts, or pregnancy.

We perform Eye Pressure Testing to screen for glaucoma and other ocular diseases. Early detection is key, as glaucoma can cause irreversible vision loss if untreated. This service is included in comprehensive eye exams or when symptoms like redness or cloudiness are observed.

We provide Blood Pressure Monitoring to assess cardiovascular health, particularly for pets with kidney disease, diabetes, or senior pets prone to hypertension. Accurate blood pressure readings help tailor treatment plans to prevent organ damage.

We offer EKG/ECG (Heart Monitoring) to evaluate heart rhythm and function, especially for pets with murmurs, coughing, or suspected cardiac disease. EKGs are performed in-house using advanced equipment for immediate results.

We take Dental X-Rays during professional cleanings to identify hidden issues like tooth root infections, fractures, or periodontal disease. These images guide treatment decisions, such as extractions or fillings, for optimal oral health.

We perform Tooth Extractions for severely diseased, fractured, or abscessed teeth to relieve pain and prevent infection. Extractions are typically done during dental cleanings under anesthesia for safety and efficiency.

We offer Oral Surgery for complex cases, including jaw fractures, tumor removals, or advanced periodontal disease. Our team uses sterile techniques and advanced equipment to ensure the best outcomes for your pet’s oral health.

We treat Periodontal Disease through deep cleanings, scaling below the gumline, and addressing underlying causes like plaque buildup or misaligned teeth. Early intervention prevents tooth loss and systemic health issues.

We educate pet owners on At-Home Dental Care, including brushing techniques, dental-friendly treats, and oral rinses. Proper at-home care complements professional cleanings to maintain your pet’s oral health between visits.

We perform Spay & Neuter Surgery to prevent unwanted litters, reduce cancer risks (e.g., mammary tumors), and address behavioral issues like roaming or aggression. These procedures are routine and performed with safety as our top priority.

We remove Foreign Bodies ingested or lodged in pets, such as bones, toys, or grass awns. Early intervention via X-rays and surgery prevents complications like perforations or infections.

We perform C-Sections for safe delivery of puppies or kittens when natural birth is not possible due to dystocia, small litters, or maternal complications. Our team monitors both mother and offspring closely during the procedure.

We repair Wounds & Lacerations with sutures, staples, or advanced wound management techniques to promote healing and prevent infections. Emergency cases are prioritized for immediate care.

We remove Bladder Stones via cystotomy surgery when detected through urinalysis or ultrasound. This procedure alleviates pain, prevents urinary blockages, and improves quality of life for affected pets.

We provide Emergency Stabilization for critical conditions like trauma, poisoning, or severe illness. Immediate interventions (IV fluids, oxygen, medications) are administered to stabilize pets before further diagnostics or surgery.

We offer Hospitalization & 24-Hour Monitoring for pets requiring intensive care post-surgery, during chronic illness management, or after emergencies. Our team ensures continuous observation and treatment adjustments.

We provide Oxygen Therapy for pets with respiratory distress, heart disease, or post-anesthetic recovery needs. Oxygen cages or nasal catheters are used to improve oxygen saturation and support healing.

We administer IV Fluid Therapy to dehydrated pets, those undergoing surgery, or with kidney disease. Fluids restore hydration, deliver medications, and support organ function during critical care.

We offer Pain Management through medications, injections, or laser therapy for post-surgical pain, arthritis, or chronic conditions. Our goal is to enhance comfort and mobility while minimizing side effects.

We treat Poison & Toxin Exposure with induced vomiting (when safe), activated charcoal, IV fluids, and supportive care. Common toxins include chocolate, lilies, rodenticides, and human medications—contact us immediately if ingestion occurs.

We provide Medical Grooming for pets with skin conditions, mobility issues, or post-surgical care needs. Services include sanitary shaves, nail trims, and gentle handling to promote healing and comfort.

We perform Sanitary Shaves for pets with matted fur, skin infections, or those requiring post-surgical hygiene. This service prevents complications like urinary tract infections (in cats) or wound contamination.

We offer Nail Trimming & Dremeling to maintain paw health and prevent overgrowth, which can cause pain or mobility issues. Nail trims are also part of our wellness exams or available as a standalone service.

We provide Anal Gland Expression for pets with impacted anal glands, a common issue in dogs causing discomfort or scooting. This quick procedure relieves pressure and prevents infections during wellness exams or as needed.

We use Cold Laser Therapy to reduce pain and inflammation for arthritis, post-surgical recovery, or wound healing. This non-invasive treatment promotes tissue repair and improves mobility without medications.

We offer Physical Therapy & Rehabilitation for pets recovering from surgery, injuries, or managing chronic conditions like arthritis. Services include laser therapy, hydrotherapy (underwater treadmill), and customized exercise plans.

We provide Hydrotherapy using an underwater treadmill to improve mobility, reduce joint stress, and aid recovery for pets with orthopedic issues or post-surgical rehabilitation. The buoyancy of water supports healing while minimizing pain.

We provide Domestic Travel Certificates for pets moving between states or boarding at facilities requiring health documentation. This includes updated vaccinations and vet-approved health records.

We conduct Quality of Life Assessments to help pet owners evaluate their companion’s comfort, pain levels, and overall well-being during end-of-life care. This tool guides decisions about treatment options or euthanasia.

We refer clients to At-Home Euthanasia Services for pets requiring end-of-life care in the comfort of their home. Coordination includes on-site veterinarians, cremation options, and emotional support for families.
