Our New Hospital 

Throughout the past few years or so, many of you have seen the new hospital being built in our same parking lot. Our move to the new, state-of-the-art, 4,000 square foot building finally happened in October 2022. 

Our new hospital consists of 5 exam rooms, dedicated CT, imaging, necropsy, ICU, and ISO rooms, expanded treatment and pharmacy areas, state-of-the-art surgical suite, massively upgraded out-patient and in-patient boarding rooms complete with 3 additional walk-in kennels for our larger avian species, a beautiful new front reception area with a waterfall and retail available for purchase, and much more. Check out the video below of the construction - including demolition of the old building and construction of the new building.


New Equipment

In December 2016, we welcomed the latest in advanced diagnostic imaging equipment to our practice. “Cat” is our Vimago High-Defintion CT Scanner!

Resolution of the Vimago™ HD CT is as high as 0.09mm x 0.09mm x 0.09mm  (isotropic voxels, vastly higher spatial resolution than conventional CT). Soft tissue contrast resolution is fantastic. Vimago™ delivers diagnostic views from axial, sagittal, and coronal planes, as well as 3D reconstruction capability. Not including anesthesia time, a CT study can take as little as 30 seconds. This high quality imaging brings excellent value to imaging studies of skeletal, respiratory and internal organ structures including but not limited to the heart and vascular system.
