At San Angelo Veterinary Hospital, we offer comprehensive veterinary care that you can trust in San Angelo, TX. Our services range from vaccinations to surgical procedures.
Preventative Care
Preventative care is essential for your pet. Preventative care services include vaccinations, parasite prevention, as well as wellness visits.
Vaccinations
If you have a dog or cat, you are required to keep them up to date on some vaccinations, including rabies. Other vaccines may be recommended, depending on your pet's lifestyle. Vaccinations can prevent your pet from developing life-threatening diseases. Puppies and kittens will receive a series of vaccines. Adult pets may need vaccinations every 1 to 3 years.
Parasite Prevention
Parasite prevention is important for keeping your pet healthy. Fleas can be a nuisance, but ticks can carry serious diseases. Other parasites include heartworm, which can be fatal, and intestinal parasites.
Wellness Exams
Wellness exams are important for ensuring your pet stays healthy. Your veterinarian will perform a physical exam to check for any problems. They may draw blood or collect a urine sample to check organ function. They will also discuss your pet's behavior and development, as well as any concerns you may have. They may provide diet or exercise advice as well.
Spay & Neuter
Spaying and neutering are important for your pet's health and preventing pet overpopulation. We offer spay and neuter services for pets. Most pets are able to go home the same day after the surgery. However, they will need a week or two to completely recover from the procedure. Your pet will be under anesthesia for the procedure. They will be given pain medication before leaving our office and some to take at home to keep them comfortable.
Microchipping
Microchipping your pet can help you find them if they ever get lost. The American Humane Society states that more than 10 million dogs and cats are lost or stolen each year. Microchipping doesn't require surgery or anesthesia. It's inserted with a simple injection during a routine office visit.
Orthopedic Care and Surgery
We provide comprehensive orthopedic care. In addition to caring for your pet's orthopedic needs, we offer surgical procedures when needed. This includes neurosurgery, which can treat tumors, skull fractures, and seizures. Soft tissue surgery and care include wound care, skin tumor removal, and treatment of abscesses. Pet orthopedic surgery can treat fractures, joint problems, hip dysplasia, and bone tumor removal.
Pain Management
Just like humans, our pets can develop conditions that cause them pain. Our pain management services include lifestyle advice, which can help prevent injury, help your pet heal from an issue or injury, or help them cope with an injury. We also provide pain medications when needed.
