Our Services

General Services

Professional Dental Cleaning

Increasingly, our clients have become aware of the fact that it is just as important to have their pets’ teeth examined and cleaned on a regular basis, as it is to protect their own teeth and gums. Our specialized services include professional dental cleaning, polishing, digital dental radiographs, fluoride therapy, tooth extractions, bonded sealants, oral surgery and specialized periodontal treatments. A painful mouth is only one side effect of infected teeth and gums. A mouth infection that goes untreated can cause serious systemic problems; such as: kidney disease, liver disease and heart disease.

Laser Therapy

We are excited to announce that we now offer the most advanced Laser Therapy treatments for our patients. Laser therapy has been available for humans for over thirty years and now is available for our pets. Laser Therapy is an advanced non-surgical treatment for a variety of conditions that can affect your pet’s health and mobility.

Conditions that can be improved with Laser Therapy include: arthritis, acute and chronic pain, back injuries, sprains and strains, inflammation, edema and helps heal wounds. Current studies have shown that Laser Therapy is equal to or more effective than other forms of physical therapy.

Laser therapy helps to provide an alternative solution to traditional pain management or can be used in combination with other treatment options and is extremely safe.

Boarding

Pets are like our children. We feed, nurture, and lavish them with attention.

Internal Medicine

Lasers

Using the laser in surgery instead of the traditional scalpel blade is a relatively new and exciting alternative. The Animal Hospital of Colorado Springs has been offering this alternative for several years.

The laser seals blood vessels and nerve endings while cutting tissue; this means less pain, less bleeding, and less swelling compared to traditional methods. This results in a rapid recovery and there is less post-operative discomfort.

Microchipping
Microchips have helped reunite thousands of pets with their families. We offer the most widely used microchip products to increase the chances of a safe recovery.

Nutritional Counseling

Some pets require special food, and all pets benefit from a balanced diet. Our trained and certified staff is available to help you choose the right diet for your pet to keep him or her happy, healthy and active.

This is why our goal is to be as proactive as possible in preventing pain and discomfort in our patients. Whether your pet is having a surgical procedure, a dental extraction, has arthritis, a soft tissue injury or a debilitating illness we have proven pain management protocols that can be used to help your pet.
