Heart Arrow Veterinary Service

Our clinic performs routine and major surgical procedures using sterile techniques and modern anesthetic protocols. Pain management and optional pre-surgical blood testing ensure patient safety. Procedures include mass removals, spays/neuters, and soft tissue surgeries, with same-day discharge whenever possible.

Annual wellness examinations assess pets' overall health through temperature checks, physical exams, and medical history reviews. We recommend bi-annual exams for senior pets or animals showing behavioral changes. Early detection of issues like dental disease or weight changes improves treatment outcomes.

We provide core vaccinations and parasite prevention programs tailored to pets' lifestyles. Services include puppy/kitten vaccine series, rabies certification, and customized deworming schedules. Our team educates owners on heartworm prevention, flea control, and zoonotic disease protection.

Comprehensive dental services include oral exams, digital x-rays, and professional scaling under anesthesia. We address gingivitis, tartar buildup, and tooth infections while providing free nail trims and ear exams during procedures. Special discounts available twice yearly for preventive dental maintenance.

On-site laboratory facilities enable rapid bloodwork analysis, urinalysis, and fecal exams. Digital radiography provides immediate imaging for injury or illness diagnosis. These capabilities allow timely treatment decisions for critical cases and chronic condition monitoring.

I love this crew. My old, ornery dog was so great for them and I know that they have my best financial interests in mind while also taking exceptional care of my dog. They are kind and joyful and so loving towards us. I am immensely grateful for how much they care for our old grouch. The staff is mostly women which our mutt prefers and it has made such a difference in his care. I HIGHLY recommend this vet! We have been taking our new mutt puppy here for a few months and they are still an amazing crew--office and medical staff alike.

Nice people and nice doctors. They treat our Australian Shepherds great! The only negative is it's sometimes hard to get a appointment.

I should have written this review a long time ago, back when we had to say goodbye to our sweet Boxer momma Roxy, Heart Arrow came to our house and helped Roxy pass over in the comfort of our own living room, she was 11 and losing the ability to walk/hold her back end up. The following two years were even harder, our boy Boxer Cooper, son of Roxy, had been suffering from Megaesophagus for quite some time, and Heart Arrow helped us through it as much as possible, until we could no longer watch him suffer and waste away.

Once again, they came to our home and helped Cooper pass over. If we would have had to drop them off and walk away, I can't imagine the feeling of abandonment our dogs and guilt our family would have gone through. Instead we got to hold them, tell them how much we loved them and grieve unabashed. I can't say enough wonderful things about Heart Arrow, they treat our fur babies like their own, we now have Oscar the Boxer and Ollie the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, both are treated with love and the utmost care at every visit. I highly recommend.

Great, caring staff here have provided a lot of care to our family! Communication is pretty good! Timing and scheduling can sometimes be a challenge, but that's the way it is now in these COVID times. We appreciate them for all they do.

My visit today was to pick up the ashes of a little dog that I had to euthanize. The staff was very compassionate about the occasion. Lilly's ashes were in a beautiful little box. This is the second animal that I have had to put to sleep for their old age. These folks made the occasions bearable with dignity and grace.
