Figgatt Shelly E, Clinic

We provide annual or bi-annual (for seniors) comprehensive physical exams to assess overall health, detect early signs of disease, and ensure your pet remains healthy. Our thorough evaluations include weight checks, organ assessments, and detailed examinations of eyes, ears, teeth, heart, lungs, and more.

We offer specialized wellness packages for puppies and kittens, including initial exams at around six weeks (puppies) or eight weeks (kittens), deworming medications, and the first round of vaccinations. Follow-up appointments ensure your new pet stays on track with their vaccination schedule and overall health.

We provide tailored wellness care for senior pets to monitor age-related conditions such as arthritis, heart disease, diabetes, or kidney issues. Regular exams help us detect early signs of illness, recommend proactive treatments, and ensure your aging pet remains comfortable and healthy.

We administer core vaccinations for dogs (rabies, distemper, parvo) as required by North Carolina state law. These vaccines are essential to protect your pet from serious and potentially fatal diseases.

We perform heartworm testing as part of our preventative care and offer monthly preventive medications to protect your pet from this serious and potentially fatal disease. Early detection and prevention are key to keeping your pet safe.

We provide a range of medically approved flea and tick preventatives, including topical treatments, oral medications, and collars. These products help protect your pet from infestations year-round while preventing serious diseases like Lyme disease.

We offer microchipping services to ensure your pet can be identified and returned if lost or separated. The procedure is quick, painless, and provides lifelong protection for your pet’s safety.

We provide personalized nutritional counseling to help you choose the best diet for your pet’s needs, including weight management plans. Our team can recommend prescription diets or specialized foods based on your pet’s health condition.

We offer deworming treatments to eliminate intestinal parasites such as roundworms, hookworms, and tapeworms. These medications are essential for puppies, kittens, and pets with parasite exposure risks.

We perform in-house bloodwork, including Complete Blood Counts (CBC) and chemistry panels, to assess your pet’s overall health. These tests help us detect early signs of disease, monitor chronic conditions, and provide a baseline for wellness care.

We conduct urinalysis as part of our diagnostic services to evaluate kidney function, detect urinary tract infections or crystals, and screen for metabolic diseases. This test is especially important for senior pets and those with urinary issues.

We offer fecal testing to identify intestinal parasites such as worms, giardia, or coccidia. Early detection allows us to treat your pet promptly and prevent the spread of parasites in your home.

We provide digital radiography services to diagnose issues such as fractures, tumors, heart defects, or intestinal blockages. Our in-house x-ray technology allows for quick and accurate imaging with minimal wait time.

We offer ultrasound imaging to diagnose conditions like pregnancy, organ diseases (e.g., liver or kidney issues), and cancer. This non-invasive procedure provides detailed images of internal structures without requiring sedation in most cases.

We offer dental radiography (x-rays) to detect hidden dental issues such as fractures, abscesses, or root problems. These x-rays provide a comprehensive view of your pet’s teeth and jaw structure for accurate diagnosis.

We perform tooth extractions when necessary due to severe decay, trauma, or periodontal disease. Our team ensures your pet receives safe anesthesia and post-operative care for a smooth recovery.

We treat periodontal disease through professional cleanings, scaling, root planing, and antibiotics if needed. Early intervention helps prevent tooth loss and systemic health issues linked to poor oral hygiene.

We educate pet owners on at-home dental care practices such as brushing teeth, using dental treats, and providing dental diets. Proper home care complements professional cleanings to maintain your pet’s oral health between visits.

We perform spay and neuter surgeries to prevent unwanted litters, reduce the risk of certain cancers (e.g., mammary tumors), and improve overall health. Our team ensures a safe surgical experience with post-operative care instructions.

We provide hospitalization services for pets requiring intensive care, including post-surgical monitoring or treatment of chronic illnesses. Our team ensures your pet receives round-the-clock attention and personalized care.

We administer IV fluid therapy to pets suffering from dehydration, kidney disease, or post-surgical recovery. This treatment helps restore hydration and supports organ function during illness or recovery.

We treat pets exposed to toxins, poisons, or ingestions of harmful substances. Our team provides immediate care, including induced vomiting (if safe), IV fluids, and medications to counteract poisoning effects.

We perform anal gland expression to relieve discomfort caused by impacted or infected glands. This procedure is often recommended for pets showing signs of scooting, licking their rear, or straining during bowel movements.

We offer quality of life assessments to help pet owners evaluate their companion’s well-being, especially in senior or chronically ill pets. This discussion guides decisions about comfort care and end-of-life planning.
