Good pain management
and the safety of your pet while under anesthesia are
of utmost importance. The use of pre-emptive pain management, inhalation
anesthesia, continuous electronic patient monitoring, intravenous fluid
therapy, sterile surgical technique and up-to-date procedures helps to
accomplish that goal.
We routinely perform elective surgical procedures, such
as spays and neuters, as well as non-elective procedures including
orthopedic, soft tissue and neurosurgical cases.
Dental care is a very important aspect of total health
care for your pet. We offer complete dental prophylaxis which includes
cleaning and polishing teeth, fluoride treatment, and dental charting.
In addition we perform dental x-rays, routine extractions, and client education on home dental
care.
Our boarding facility is indoors and climate
controlled. Reservations are essential to guarantee a space for your pet
as availability is limited. For your pet's protection, current
immunizations are required. If a pet becomes ill while boarding, a
doctor is always available to administer necessary treatment.
Dogs are walked outdoors in a covered secure areas several times daily.
In addition to normal exercise periods we offer playtimes
for your pet. These are individual one-on-one play sessions including
use of your pet's favorite toys.
Cats boarding with us stay in our new area that features cat
condos with a view. We also offer routine as well as
therapeutic bathing for your pet.
Our professional groomers offer full service grooming
for all breeds of dogs and cats. Please call our regular office number
(901) 362-8321 for an appointment.
Keeping
your pet healthy is our ultimate goal. We emphasize Annual
Wellness Visits that include a complete physical exam, routine
vaccinations, testing for internal parasites such as intestinal worms
and heartworms, and blood and urine screening for underlying diseases.
In order to keep your dog or cat parasite free, we advocate monthly
administration of medications to prevent heartworms, intestinal worms
and external parasites such as fleas and ticks. We carry a complete line
of the most effective products.
Puppies and kittens should be examined
as soon as they arrive in their new home. Routine vaccinations and
deworming should be started around 6 weeks of age.
Our hospital offers complete diagnostic and
treatment services for all types of illnesses. We have an in-house
laboratory for immediate blood and urine testing as well as an
outside veterinary reference laboratory that picks up samples twice
daily.
Diagnostic imaging using the latest digital radiography and
digital ultrasound are also used to help determine the cause of
your pet's illness. Special studies including myelograms and
echocardiograms are routinely performed.
Southwind Animal Hospital has been utilizing electronic medical records
since 2006. This allows us to capture, store, access and search your
pet's records much more efficiently.
