Washtenaw Veterinary Hospital Services
Regular physical examinations are incredibly important to your pet's health. Pets age more rapidly than people and can develop disease conditions that can go unnoticed, even to the most attentive pet owner. Veterinarians are skilled in detecting conditions that have gradual onset and subtle signs. Early detection allows many problems to be treated before they pose a significant health threat to your pet. Thorough check-ups and preventive care can help alleviate serious health problems. We offer a wide range of veterinary services to keep your companions feeling their best:
Anesthesia
Our veterinarians and technicians use modern equipment to carefully monitor all pets during anesthetic procedures including dental cleanings and general surgery.
Dentistry
Our dental services include teeth cleaning and polishing, digital dental x-rays, extractions, and minor oral surgery.
HEARTWORM, FLEA & TICK PREVENTION
We currently offer Heartgard (for dogs) and Sentinel (for dogs) to prevent heartworm and certain intestinal parasites. In addition we offer topical Frontline SHIELD and oral Nexgard and Bravecto for the prevention of fleas and ticks in dogs. We now offer Nexgard Combo (for cats) and Nexgard Plus (for dogs) for the treatment of heartworm, certain intestinal parasites, fleas and ticks.
