We perform non-orthopedic procedures including spays/neuters, tumor removals, and gastrointestinal blockage corrections. Our surgical suite prioritizes safety with anesthetic ventilators and multi-parameter monitoring during all operations. Post-operative care includes pain management and recovery support.

Dr. Akers saw our German Shepherd, Athena, today and was very thorough. We couldn't be happier with our experience. Her tech was very helpful and kind. The office staff very kind, the office and exam rooms were very clean. I would highly recommend them.
