Very caring and compassionate vets! They took care of my miniature schnauzer for 7 years, until I had to put him to rest due to his old age.

Preventive Care

Dental Care
Upon discharge, the veterinary team will review any instructions pertaining to post-dental medications, special feeding instructions, and when to resume home dental care. Your pet will thank you for remembering to take care of his or her mouth, and live a longer and happier life as a result.
Vaccination
Getting your new puppy or kitten off to a healthy start sets the stage for their lives as healthy adults. Regular physical examinations, core and elective vaccinations, fecal testing for parasites, and deworming are all important elements of ensuring good health for your puppy or kitten. Our knowledgeable staff can help your family learn about potty training your pup, performing nail trims on your puppy or kitten, dietary recommendations, and potential health hazards for your new pet.
Behavioral Counseling
Comprehensive Examination
Before any first acupuncture appointments are scheduled we require an Integrative Medical Care (IMC) consult to set up expectations of therapy (30 minutes). The patient must be present so the veterinarian can see the pet. A physical exam is performed at this time, but treatment might not be given that day depending on the hospital schedule.

Illness Treatment

Parasites Treatment and Control
When health problems are identified, a medical plan will be outlined to evaluate the problems in depth. If your pet appears to be healthy enough for routine preventive care, your veterinarian will discuss which immunizations are advised, as well as parasite prevention including heartworm disease, intestinal parasites, and ectoparasites (fleas, ticks, etc.). Annual age-appropriate lab tests, testing for heartworm and/or tick-borne diseases, and fecal tests for parasites may also be recommended for your pet. Finally, your pet’s nutrition, diet, and exercise routines can be assessed and optimized to help your pet be in best physical condition for their lifestyle and age. Remember, keeping up with preventive care for your pet is the best way to keep your pet happy and healthy for life.
Pain Management
Dr. Roger Clemmons, an instructor at the Chi Institute of Chinese Medicine, states, “From a modern perspective, acupuncture represents a form of nerve stimulation.” Small needles are used to stimulate different “meridians” on the body to help move energy (termed “Qi” in Chinese medicine) when it becomes stagnant or weak. The effect for the patient provides pain relief or correction of the energy flow within that meridian to provide healing to the body. Acupuncture has become a popular treatment modality for patients who require holistic healing that are either non-responsive to conventional medicine or where Western medicine is lacking in treatment options for certain conditions.
Vomiting Treatment
Diarrhea Treatment
Skin Condition and Allergy Treatment

Infection Treatment

Leptospirosis Treatment
SNAP tests: point-of-care “snap” tests are available for certain infectious diseases such as Feline Leukemia and Feline Immunodeficiency Virus, Canine Parvovirus, Giardia, and Leptospirosis.
Parvovirus Infection Treatment
Feline Retro Virus Treatment
Bacterial and Viral Infection Treatment
One of the most common but also frequently overlooked health problems for companion animals is dental disease. By age 3, most pets have some degree of periodontal disease. This occurs as a result of bacterial infection along the gum line, due to the formation of plaque. Plaque is a sticky substance containing millions of bacteria that forms along the tooth surface and gum line. Without frequent removal, plaque eventually hardens into tartar. Left untreated, this leads to gradual destruction of the gum tissue and supportive structures around the teeth, which can result in tooth loss. Not only is periodontal disease harmful and painful because it results in loss of teeth, but it can also cause damage to important vital organs such as the...

Chronic Condition Treatment

Arthritis Treatment
These conditions will start to become more prevalent as your pet gets older. For this reason, we recommend twice-yearly veterinary visits for pets over 7 years of age. Your aging pet may be showing early signs of osteoarthritis such as stiffness after rest or play, difficulty going up or down stairs and reduced activity. Early intervention with joint supplements and prescription arthritis medications when indicated, along with modified nutrition and exercise plans, can greatly improve your pet’s comfort and mobility. Likewise, performing annual screening lab work on your older pet can help identify early stages of medical problems that might go unrecognized, and progress significantly without treatment.
Hip Dysplasia Treatment
Heart Disease Treatment
Heartworm is another important endoparasite, but one which is not zoonotic. Heartworm infections result from pets being bitten by infected mosquitos. The larval form of the heartworm travels through the bloodstream to the heart where it develops into an adult. The adult heartworms live in the right side of the heart and left untreated, result in progressive heart failure and death. In initial stages of heartworm disease, pets may be asymptomatic. As the condition progresses, symptoms may evolve including a cough and exercise intolerance in dogs, and vomiting/coughing in cats. Treatment of heartworm disease can be very risky for the pet, and very costly.
Kidney Disease Treatment
Any pre-surgical testing that is recommended – baseline laboratory testing is beneficial so that there are no surprises on surgery day. Knowing that your pet has normal blood test results can help prevent anesthetic complications or surgical complications such as excessive bleeding, which can occur when patients have low platelet counts or abnormal clotting. When there is liver or kidney disease, this may affect the choices of anesthetic drugs recommended by your veterinarian, to prevent anesthetic complications and promote a smooth anesthetic recovery.
Periodontal Disease Treatment

Veterinary Surgery
Dr. Michele’s favorite aspects of veterinary medicine are internal medicine, dermatology and general surgery. She has been a member of the AVMA, FVMA and JVMA since 1995.
Spaying and Neutering
Devin graduated in May 2014 with an Associate’s degree in Veterinary Sciences from Fort Range Community College, Fort Collins, CO. After that, she worked at Larimar Humane Society for 8 months in Colorado before moving to Virginia Beach, VA where she worked at a spay and neuter clinic for the non-profit organization of Chesapeake Humane Society. She moved to Jacksonville in June 2018 to enjoy warmer weather and live the beach life.

Laboratory Services
Laboratory testing for baseline blood counts and organ function tests, or infectious disease. Blood and/or urine samples may be collected from your pet, for point-of-care testing, or reference lab tests. Point-of-care tests are those tests that are done on-site in our hospital so as to be able to determine results and make treatment recommendations in the most timely fashion possible. In other cases, lab samples may need to be sent off to off-site laboratories (reference laboratories) – when the test cannot be performed with in-hospital lab equipment, or when the test results are not needed urgently.
