Full Service Veterinary Care
Facility
Animal Hospital at Brier Creek is a full service animal clinic providing both
medical and surgical services with a personal touch. We have a diagnostic blood analyzer, surgery
suite, and radiology unit to provide full care. We also offer a full range of laboratory options to
aid in a complete diagnostic evaluation of your pet's medical
needs.
Veterinary Surgery

Our state-of-the-art surgical suite
provides for the performance of a wide variety of surgical
procedures. Our Veterinarians are trained
in state-of-the-art surgical techniques should your pet require a
surgical procedure.

We offer a full range of soft tissue surgeries
from routine spay & neuter services to more advanced
procedures such as orthopedic surgery and fracture repairs. We utilize the safest available anesthetics to
provide an extra margin of safety, especially for our
older
or high-risk patients. Using the most modern equipment, the
patient's vital signs are monitored during all anesthetic
procedures. All pets that undergo anesthesia, have an IV
catheter in place through which intravenous fluids are given
to lessen the side effects of anesthesia. In addition, all
pets are monitored by trained veterinary nurses with an EKG,
blood pressure, pulse oximeter (monitors oxygen in the
blood), capnometer (monitors carbon dioxide in the blood),
and core body temperature. All patients under anesthesia
have warm IV fluids and a warm water blanket to keep their
body temperature up.

Complete Laboratory Analysis
Our in-house
laboratory facilities provide for serum
chemistry, hematology, serology,
urinalysis and parasite testing. We also
utilize commercial veterinary
laboratories for specialized diagnostics
and consultations. Comprehensive diagnostic procedures enable us to
recommend the most effective form of treatment to keep your pet
healthy and happy. Pre-operative blood work is mandatory to
make anesthesia the safest possible.

Digital Radiology
Our
on-site, modern X-ray equipment provides high quality radiographs to
aid in the quick diagnosis of many disorders. We
also have the capability to transfer radiographs quickly to
specialists if the need arises because of our digital radiography
which allows radiographs to be emailed at the touch of a button.
Digital X-rays are performed on the premises using
the latest equipment and safety precautions so that we can identify
the cause of any problems quickly.
Ultra
Sound
We also offer Ultra Sound as a non-invasive way to help us diagnose your pet's medical condition. This non-invasive,
state-of-the-art technology uses sound
waves to painlessly examine specific
internal organs, primarily the heart and
abdominal organs. Pregnancy exams are
also available. You pet can receive an
ultrasound from a boarded radiologist
without ever leaving the clinic.
