Kentlands Veterinary Hospital offers clinical care services that include dental care, labs, pain management, pharmaceuticals, surgery, ultrasound, and radiographs. Our clinical care services accord with modern best practices in the field of veterinary medicine. Dental Cleanings and Extractions: Routine dental care is as important for your pet as it is for you. We offer dental prophylaxis, as well as fluoride treatment. OraVet Barrier Sealant is a part of all dental cleanings and creates an invisible barrier that prevents plaque- and tartar-forming bacteria from attaching to your pet’s newly cleaned teeth. Better oral health can lead to a longer life for your pet. The hospital is proud to offer dental x-rays. Dental x-rays are necessary to diagnose diseases that are below the surface and not apparent during a routine examination.
On-Site Laboratory Services: We offer comprehensive in-house laboratory services, including the following:
CBC
Blood chemistries
Electrolytes
Thyroid and adrenal hormone testing
Fecal parasite examination, including giardia
We also offer in-house testing with an eight-minute turnaround time for the following:
Heartworm disease
Lyme disease
Ehrlichia disease
Feline leukemia virus
Feline immunodeficiency virus
Pain Management: Our greatest concern is the wellbeing and comfort of your pet. We offer a variety of pain medications to ensure the comfort of your pet. We provide both traditional and nontraditional modalities, including anti-inflammatory medications, other prescription medications, acupuncture, and Chinese herbal therapy.
Pharmacy: In order to rapidly meet your pet’s medical needs, we carry a full range of veterinary pharmaceuticals. Prescriptions are filled while you wait and can be specially tailored to your pet’s needs. One way that we do this is through the use of FLAVORx. For those pets that are difficult to medicate, we can compound most oral medications into one of 16 different flavored liquids, making medication administration a piece of cake! Some of our client’s favorites include chicken pot pie, sardine splendor, and mom’s banana bread. Ask us how we can help you medicate your pet in an easier way. Surgery: We offer general surgery, laser surgery, and orthopedic surgery.
Ultrasound Procedures: We offer in-house ultrasound services. This allows us to diagnose internal diseases that are not readily apparent on x-rays. One hundred percent of ultrasounds performed at the hospital are reviewed by a specialist. Consultations are on the same day.
Radiographs: We offer in-house digital radiographs. This minimizes a patient’s stay in the hospital and allows for rapid diagnosis and treatment. Our radiographs are read by our doctors and a board-certified veterinary radiologist using telemedicine and the service of PetRays Veterinary Radiology Consultants.
