Pet Services We Provide

Health Exams
Any patient who comes in for routine vaccinations will receive a full physical examination by the doctor. This type of exam is recommended annually. Remember, a dog ages 7 years biologically for every calendar year. The health examination includes a check of general appearance, attitude, eyes, ears, nose, mouth, teeth, throat, mucous membranes & capillary refill time (CRT), skin/coat, abdomen, heart, lungs, and the musculoskeletal system.

Dental Care
Every pet that comes in for a dental procedure will have a pre surgical examination, blood work, and a urinalysis prior to general anesthesia. Once the pet is anesthetized, a thorough oral examination is performed followed by ultrasonic scaling of the tartar, and finished by polishing those pearly whites! Then, all of the teeth are rechecked and charted and any fractured, diseased, or loose teeth are extracted by the veterinarian.

Diagnostic Exams
Any patient who comes in sick, injured, or otherwise will receive a physical examination (described above) in addition to any necessary diagnostics (Radiographs, Ultrasound, blood work, urinalysis, etc.).

Surgical Services
Thornwood Veterinary Clinic has two very talented veterinarians with more than 60-years of combined surgical experience. We offer a full line of surgical services from common spay and neuter procedures to cruitiate repairs and everything between. We also offer referral service to specialist should your pet require.
