Radiosurgery: A procedure that is similar to laser surgery, only better, especially for feline declaws.
|
|
 Laparoscopic Surgery: This non-invasive surgery has been available in human medicine for many years. Laparoscopy is surgery that is performed with instruments inside the abdominal cavity through small incisions. The procedure is visualized on a monitor. Recovery and pain control is significantly better than with traditional abdominal surgery. Dr. Brown has received additional training and has a special interest in laparoscopic procedures including ovariectomy, ovariohysterectomy, biopsy of the kidneys, pancreas, liver and intestine, gastropexy, cystopexy and other procedures where rigid endoscopy can be used.
|
|
Radiographs: We offer both dental and general full body radiographs.
|
|
Ultrasound/Telemedicine: Our ultrasound unit utilizes color doppler and pulse wave doppler, which are forms of ultrasound that allows for visualization of bloodflow through the heart and vessels. Once the images are captured on site, they are immediately forwarded via the internet to any veterinary school or specialist anywhere in the world for review. Interpretation and results are electronically transmitted back to our hospital within one day. Consequently, our clients now have the convenience of having ultrasound imaging, diagnostic review and determination of long- or short-term treatment options performed in one location without having to leave town or schedule additional appointments with a specialist elsewhere.
|
|
Dental/periodonal cleaning & extractions: Our certified veterinary dental technicians can perform full dental prophylactic (comprehensive preventive cleaning) treatments, and our doctors can perform root canals, crowns, restorations when necessary. We place a high level of emphasis on dental treatment and periodontal disease prevention as research has shown that proper oral health plays a primary role in the prevention of many life threatening diseases in dogs and cats.
