Welcome to the clinic
tour! The clinic is always changing since we've taken over in
July '03, so our pictures will be constantly changing as well. We
are more than happy to have you come see us in person so we can show
you around, and if you can't, here's the virtual tour of our home away
from home!
- Waiting area-We've
fixed it up where you and your fuzzy children can get comfortable for
the wait to see the doctor, but don't get too comfortable! You
never have to wait for more than 15 minutes!
- Our inhouse
laboratory allows us to do several tests on sight so you don't
have to wait for results another day. Extremely useful for those
emergency cases where treatment is needed right away. This
equipment will get us results in minutes instead of days.
- The dog exam
area has been renovated as well to make our canine's
comfortable! Decorated with doggy border and painted a nice soothing
blue. We have seperate dog and cat exam rooms so that
communicable diseases can't be spread from animal to animal should
something contageous come in to visit us. If that should occur,
the exam rooms are switched. The cats will go to the dog room and
the dogs will go to the cat exam room for the day. Although the exam
rooms are thoroughly sanitized between each and every patient, we
always want to take extra precautions.
- The cat exam
room is renovated to contain some nice kitty border and soothing
light green paint. The same goes for kitty diseases as for
dogs. Since these conditions do not affect dogs and doggy germs
don't affect cats, we switch rooms when we know contageous diseases
have found their way to us in our exam rooms.
- The surgery
suite is renovated and updated as well. We've installed a
cauterizing unit and brought in a lot of extra surgery equipment.
We are able to do several orthopedic procedures, including pinning
and wiring of broken bones, knee surgeries to fix luxating
patela's, knee surgeries to stablize after breaking or tearing a
cruciate ligament, and so on. And, of course, we certainly do
spay's and neuters routinely.
- The Surgery
Suite equipment area is where we keep all of our surgery
supplies. The autoclave unit you see here is used to sterilize
all of our surgical instruments, gowns, etc. Everything that
touches the animal in here is completely sterile.
- The reception
area
is where we greet YOU! If you're nice to our receptionists,
they'll give your pet a tasty treat. This area was renovated as
well. A nice coat of paint and an attractive place for the client
files and reception supplies makes this area look enviting.
- We have an inhouse pharmacy area equiped with
antibiotics, antiinflammatory medicines, etc. to keep you pet feel
their best. Most of the time, there is no need to take a little
piece of paper to the pharmacy. We have it here!
- Another view of the dog exam area with a lot of the
equipment we use to examine "Fido" all right behind us for easy access.
- Another view of the cat exam room with a lot of the
equipment we use to examine "Fluffy" all right behind us for easy
access. (Is there an echo in here?)
- Digital X-ray system-
We no longer have to worry with caustic chemicals to develop films.
Now it's all digital! This highly specialized equipment
allows to take high resolution images, send them off to specialists in
a flash or burn the images on a disk for you to take home.
- Ultrasound Machine-
Our new ultrasound machine lets us see images that x-rays cannot
detect, like heart valves, circulation in the liver, gall
bladder, and other soft tissue studies. Great for counting
puppies or kittens waiting to be born!
I hope you liked our little tour of the clinic.
As I put these pictures in here I already notice that the clinic has
changed since I've taken photos last. Stay tuned! They will
be updated regularly!
