Microchips are small computer chips that are the size of a grain of rice that are inserted under pets skin between their shoulder blades. Your pet now has his own unique ID number. We recommend that all pets receive a microchip to help ensure that your pet is returned to you if ever lost or stolen.
Surgery
Our clinic offers a wide range of surgical procedures. We very commonly perform spay and neuter surgeries. We also perform soft tissue surgeries such as tumor removal, splenectomies, bladder stone removal and biopsies. Pre-anesthetic bloodwork is a must and done prior to the procedure.
Ultrasound
We are one of the few clinics in the Rockford area to perform ultrasounds. An ultrasound allows us to evaluate the abdominal organs (liver, kidneys, spleen, intestines, stomach and bladder) more closely. We are able to detect tumors, cysts, stones and inflammation. Ultrasounds are also used for pregnancy evaluation.
Vaccinations
Vaccinations help pets live longer, healthier lives. Protecting your pet is our primary goal, so developing an appropriate vaccine schedule for your pet is important to us. It is just as important that we do not under vaccinate as well as over vaccinate your pet.
