Preventative Care We believe in proactively managing your pet’s health so they live longer, happier, healthier lives. Regular check-ups and preventative care reduce long-term health risks and costs. Our approach is personalized, tailoring care to your pet’s unique age, breed, and lifestyle to ensure they thrive at every stage of live. Our wellness care services include vaccines, routine bloodwork, parasite prevention, nutritional counseling, behavioral consults, annual wellness exams, and more.
Urgent Care When your pet needs care, waiting isn’t an option. With our urgent care services, we handle unexpected illnesses and minor injuries swiftly, comfortably, and reliably, so your pet gets back to feeling their best sooner. Whether it’s an upset stomach or a troubling rash, our veterinarians provide clear answers and thoughtful care, right when it’s needed most.
Dentistry By age three, over 80% of dogs and 70% of cats show signs of dental disease. Left untreated, oral bacteria can enter the bloodstream, potentially impacting other areas of the body. At Hollymead Veterinary Hospital, we prioritize pet’s oral health with comprehensive dental services, including routine dental exams, professional pet dental cleanings, and extractions if necessary.
Health Screenings Most pets show no obvious signs when something’s wrong, and that’s where proactive health screening makes all the difference. Routine health screens can detect hidden issues like kidney disease, thyroid imbalance, or early organ dysfunction, often before symptoms appear. Our advanced diagnostics include bloodwork, urinanalysis and radiographs, helping us catch problems early and tailor care precisely. Even normal results provide a baseline to compare against in the future, giving your pet the best chance at a longer, healthier life.
Ultrasounds & Imaging Our advanced imaging tools, like ultrasound and digital radiology, allow us to visualize what can’t be seen from the outside, helping us quickly pinpoint internal issues with precision and care. From assessing organ function to guiding treatment plans, these tools are essential to how we deliver faster answers. And because our technology is non-invasive, your pet stays safe and comfortable every step of the way.
Surgery When surgery is needed, your pet is in expert hands. Our surgical suite is equipped with modern monitoring and anesthesia technology, and each patient receives one-on-one care from a licensed technician throughout the procedure. We routinely perform spays and neuters, mass removals, wound repairs, foreign body extractions, and more—always with thoughtful pain management and post-op support.
