Mission Statement: Our mission is to offer You and Your pet the most comprehensive and highest quality veterinary care available by stressing Preventative Medicine

  • Our goal is to prevent problems for both you and your pet in every instance possible by giving you the best care and information available.
  • We respect that your pet is a valued member of your family and we will do our best to earn your respect with every visit.
  • There are may diseases that can be transmitted by your pet to the human members of your family that we want to avoid. Those transmittable diseases are called zoonoses. Zoonotic diseases are becoming more common as our pets now live in much closer contact with humans than ever before.
  • There are numerous disease processes we can avoid when we team up with you and your pet's best interest at the forefront.
  • We will continually strive to update our procedures and practices to adapt to the latest recommendations of recognized authorities such as the CDC (Centers For Disease Control) and CAPC (Companion Animal Parasitic Control) to prevent diseases from occurring in both pets and people.
