The experienced emergency team handles trauma cases, toxic ingestions, and acute illnesses with rapid diagnostic capabilities. For after-hours emergencies, we coordinate care with 24-hour facilities while maintaining continuity of treatment.
Wellness Exams
Comprehensive physical examinations detect early health issues through systematic snout-to-tail evaluations. Annual bloodwork screens identify organ function abnormalities, while personalized vaccination schedules protect against preventable diseases. Senior pets receive specialized twice-yearly assessments to monitor age-related changes.

Pre-anesthetic blood testing ensures patient safety while fluoride treatments strengthen enamel. Our practice emphasizes preventive care to avoid periodontal disease complications affecting major organs.

Report
The entire staff was nice from the moment I scheduled her appointment over the phone to her visit. They were so welcoming and treated my baby like a princess. As a new dog mom Dr. Vera answered all of my questions and provided me with some new puppy tips. They also gave me a new puppy kit with a bunch of resources and readings, poop bags, a leash, some treats and more. She was so calm in their care.

We unfortunately had to put our beloved sweet angel down and the support and compassion from Dr. Vera and her staff was wonderful. Dr. Vera is a truly caring individual. Maya was comfortable and felt so loved through the whole process. The staff even sent a super thoughtful sympathy card afterward. I can't imagine a better experience for something so hard to go through.

Report
I've taken my pets to The Colony Animal Clinic since I can remember and they've all seen Dr. Holt. Since he's retired, I've seen Dr. Vera and she is very caring. I've had 3 cats and 1 dog and they've had diabetes, cancer and allergies. When we've had to put them to sleep, the staff has been very compassionate and caring. The staff is always courteous and helpful when you call them on the phone. We currently have 1 cat and will continue to use the clinic. I'm still very pleased with their service and how thorough they are.

Report
I came in for a checkup and prescription renewal after moving from out of state. The staff was not very friendly and the facility were messy and cramped. The front desk area was filled with unorganized piles of pet food. I was charged a $10 fee for prescriptions because i didn't want to buy the medication directly from them. This place is ok if you're in a pinch but i will be looking elsewhere for a more permanent vet clinic for my two dogs.
