Animal Hospital-Crested Butte - Laura A Ramos

You can tell from that wagging tail or the soothing purr that your pets are happy and healthy. And keeping them happy and healthy are what the wellness examinations are all about. A wellness exam is important for proactive health care in all the stages of your pet's life. With regular wellness exams, we can see changes in your pet's well-being that you might not notice at home, such as weight gain or loss, dental issues, changes to skin and haircoat, or heart and lung irregularities.As your pet ages, a wellness exam is a good way to detect early onset of diseases, such as heart disease, leukemia or diabetes.

Vaccinations are one of the simplest ways to help your pet live a long, healthy life. As part of our wellness exams, we determine the best vaccination schedule for your furry friend, based on age, medical history, environment and lifestyle. Call us to schedule a wellness exam and keep your pet's vaccinations up to date.

Here at the Animal Hospital, our talented Dr. Ramos can perform a wide variety of surgeries, from elective to emergency. We also have a very gifted orthopedic surgeon who travels the western slope that can be brought in for Bone related repairs, including Cruciate or knee tendon repair, broken and dislocated bones.

X-rays are a valuable diagnostic tool for detecting problems that simply can't be found with a physical examination. That's why we have radiological services available on site. And we have access to radiology consultants for unusual cases and second opinions. X-rays are also an important component of our dental services.
