Golden Paws Veterinary Service and Housecalls In-Home & Mobile Services

 

  

Because of the shorter lifespan of our pets, we stress the importance of an periodic physical examination. Thorough exams and preventive care can help identify and alleviate serious pet health problems. We offer a wide range of mobile veterinary services to keep your animal companions feeling their best:

 

Diagnostic and Therapeutic Services Diagnostic and Therapeutic Services: Our hospital is equipped to provide diagnostic and therapeutic services to care for your pets' complete health care needs.

 Surgical Services:  Surgical Services: Our state-of-the-art surgical suite provides for the performance of a wide variety of surgical procedures to include mass removals, neuters, and minor surgeries. We also offer cryotherapy (painless freezing using the FREEZEPEN) for small cutaneous masses that will not require anesthesia.

Anesthesia Anesthesia: We utilize the safest available anesthetics to provide an extra margin of safety, especially for our older or high-risk patients. Using the most modern equipment, the patient's vital signs are monitored during all anesthetic procedures.

Specialty consults Specialty consults: We offer in-hospital referrals to board certified veterinary specialists who perform comprehensive ultrasounds, endoscopy, complicated surgeries, dermatologic, orthopedic, cardiology and oncology services, helping us with the diagnosis of more complicated cases.

 Radiology Services: Radiology Services: Our on-site, digital X-ray equipment provides high quality radiographs to aid in the quick diagnosis of many disorders. We also have a portable ultrasound probe that allows us to do quick scans on the abdomen and retrieve sterile urine samples from the bladder (called cystocentesis).
