Pet Wellness Care
Our comprehensive wellness programs focus on disease prevention through regular checkups, vaccinations, and early detection screenings. We tailor care plans to each pet's life stage, breed, and health status. Our team educates owners on nutrition, exercise, and parasite prevention to maximize longevity.
Pet Dentistry
We provide complete oral health services including cleanings, extractions, and digital dental radiography. Our annual dental exams identify periodontal disease early, preventing systemic health complications. Pain management protocols ensure patient comfort during procedures.

This non-invasive treatment reduces inflammation and chronic pain from arthritis or injuries using Class IV laser technology. Sessions typically last 15-20 minutes with no sedation required, offering drug-free relief for pets with mobility issues.

Specialized techniques minimize stress for cats through dedicated exam rooms, pheromone diffusers, and towel-wrapping methods. Our staff receives ongoing training in low-stress handling to create positive veterinary experiences for feline patients.

I took my goldendoodle yesterday for her first visit at this location. Let me say I was impressed! The vet that did her check up was thorough, made me feel like she genuinely cared about my pets wellbeing. Not rushed and out the door like other places. Staff was friendly. Would recommend oklandon family vet. We had a good experience!
