"We Take Better Care of Your Best Friends"
IMMUNIZATION AND WELLNESS CARE: The foundation components of the Greenfield Animal Hospital Wellness program are:
Our goal is to enhance "The Bond" between you and your pet by maintaining the quality and longevity of your pet's life. SPAY AND NEUTERS: An important part of responsible pet ownership is to have your pet spayed or neutered. Beyond the reproductive instinct behavior, this can decrease the chances of certain cancers (testicular and mammary) as well as female infections. Males can experience aggression, inappropriate markings and straying from home when not neutered. Our procedures include pre-anesthetic blood work to make sure you pet is able to safely handle the anesthesia. Further, we use the safest and highest quality anesthesia, IV fluids during the procedure to keep your pet well hydrated to protect their young organs. We believe strongly in pain management and always send home a few days worth of the appropriate pain medication to be administer at home. The procedure is typically same day, with the patient arriving early morning and released after post surgery observation around 4:00 pm. INTERNAL MEDICINE: Illness, accident and disease are an unfortunate fact of life. We provide the most current equipment needed to diagnose and treat your pet. Diabetes, heart disease, renal disease, dermatological conditions, orthopedic injuries and malignancies are common conditions we manage and treat. We work closely with Board Certified Veterinarians when needed to provide the finest care for your pet. SURGERY: We are very proud of our surgical service. We offer the most advanced anesthesia and surgical techniques and technology. All patients are carefully examined and pre-anesthetic lab work is performed so that we specifically tailor your pet's anesthesia protocol. All patients are monitored by our Licensed Veterinary Technicians during procedures. Cardiac and respiratory monitors, pulse oximeters and heated surgical tables are used on each patient to increase margins of safety. Our Veterinarians regularly attend continuing education seminars to maintain our knowledge of the most current techniques. Our hospital is routinely inspected by the American Animal Hospital Association to insure the highest of quality. We work closely with Board Certified Surgeons, either in-clinic or by referral when indicated. Post surgical care includes pain assessment monitoring to insure your pet receives the best of care. DENTAL CARE: Proper oral health is important to maintaining your pet's health. We encourage home dental care for your pet through a variety of techniques and products. When professional dental prophylaxis is indicated, we utilize hand scaling, high-speed dental equipment, and the most up to date products for your pet. Our Licensed Veterinary Technicians are trained to scale, clean and polish teeth to create a smooth, healthy tooth and gum surface that is more resistant to disease. Fluoride treatments help strengthen enamel and reduce tooth sensitivity. Our Veterinarians do a thorough examination of your pet's teeth, gums and oral cavity. In the event of significant periodontal disease or extractions, we focus on appropriate antibiotic therapy and pain management. BOARDING: We offer a clean, updated, climate controlled, veterinary supervised boarding environment for your pets. Our highly trained kennel attendants provide tender loving care for your pets when boarding. Pets are fed twice daily, monitored carefully, walked regularly, bathed and brushed when indicated and treated as we would treat our own pets. Is your pet unhappy or lonely while you're at work? Give your companion the personal attention he or she deserves throughout the day. We offer the same TLC and playtime offered to our longer-term guests. Many clients schedule a professional grooming prior to pickup. PET GROOMING: We offer the finest in all breed grooming services for your pet. Our groomer, Susan has been with us for over 15 years. She takes a genuine interest in each of the pets she grooms. EMERGENCY AND CRITICAL CARE: In any emergency, seconds count. Our experienced staff is backed up by our mobile resuscitation unit, stocked and equipped to administer the ABCs of basic life support – Airway, Breathing, Circulation/Cardiac compressions. Emergency care is offered during regular business hours. In addition, we partner with the services of a local, fully staffed emergency center at Michigan Veterinary Emergency Care at 248-364-6660 for after hours emergencies. PAIN MANAGEMENT: Veterinary patients feel pain and discomfort under the same circumstances as people. We know that recognizing and alleviating pain in animals is the essence of quality patient care. This is why with any treatment or operation that we deem to have any level of pain, we provide both pre- and post- procedure comfort for your pet. NUTRITIONAL COUNSELING: Proper nutrition is the foundation of health. Our staff is trained to help you choose the right diet for your pet to keep him or her healthy, active and happy. We are also trained in nutritional management of various internal medical conditions. We feature a full line of prescription diets. MICROCHIPPING: Microchips have helped reunite thousands of pets with their families. We offer the most widely used microchip product to increase the chances of a safe recovery of a lost pet. BEHAVIORAL MEDICINE: Pets have personalities. At times, they develop inappropriate behaviors that may negatively affect "The Bond" we share with them. Our staff is trained to help understand your pet's behaviors and to correct inappropriate behavior when it arises. We also have a network of outside behaviorists and trainers we work with for more challenging situations. Our goal is to keep you and your pet happy together. RADIOLOGY: Radiology ( X-rays) is an important diagnostic tool utilized to gather information regarding your pet's health. Radiographs assist us in making diagnoses of diseases and illnesses, monitoring existing conditions and during emergencies. We use state-of-the-art digital imaging which provides for faster and more accurate results. BLOOD TRANSFUSION: In the event when blood transfusion becomes necessary, we maintain a list of eligible blood donors. The blood is collected from donor pets that live with their owners. All blood is carefully matched and is also screened for diseases. ULTRASOUND: 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. We also have the capability of digitally capturing ultrasound images and transmitting them via the Internet to Board Certified radiologists and internists who then consult with us on more challenging cases. FULLY STOCKED PHARMACY: For your convenience, we maintain a wide range of the best veterinary pharmaceuticals and products available. Purchasing prescription items from your veterinarian guarantees the manufacturer will stand behind their product fully. BIRDS, REPTILES, RABBITS AND SMALL MAMMALS: Veterinary medicine for exotic pets is growing as the popularity of these animals increase. With better public education in health, nutritional and environmental management, all species have a greater chance for living longer and healthier lives. Our staff includes a veterinarian who is interested in the care and treatment of small animals and exotic pets. VETERINARY HOUSE CALLS: For those clients with transportation difficulties, we are able to make house calls. HOSPICE/EUTHANASIA SERVICES: For pets who are nearing the end of their lives, we work to keep them comfortable in their own homes as long as is reasonable. The decision to say goodbye to a long-time friend is never easy. When euthanasia is indicated, we work with clients to ensure their pets treated gently and with respect and dignity. We are always available to help with the grief that accompanies the loss of a beloved pet. We offer a full range of aftercare options for your pets as well. |
