Preventive Care
Routine preventive care is the foundation of lifelong pet wellness. We offer comprehensive wellness exams, vaccinations, parasite prevention, and behavioral and nutritional counseling to help your pet live a long and healthy life.

Dentistry
Our dental services include cleanings, oral exams, extractions, and treatment for gum disease. Regular dental care helps prevent pain, tooth loss, and infection while supporting heart and kidney health.

Microchipping
A microchip is a safe, permanent way to increase the chances of being reunited with your pet if they ever get lost. We offer quick, virtually painless microchip placement during any visit. It’s one of the most effective steps you can take to protect your pet.

Diagnostic & Imaging
Fast, accurate diagnostics are critical when your pet is sick or injured. Our in-house digital radiography and ultrasound units allow us to quickly capture and review diagnostic images. We also work closely with leading reference labs for specialized testing.

Soft Tissue Surgery
Our experienced veterinarians perform a variety of soft tissue surgeries with advanced surgical techniques and monitoring protocols. From spay & neuter to gastrointestinal and organ procedures, your pet is in expert hands.

Orthopedic Surgery
We offer orthopedic surgery on a referral basis for pets with bone, joint, or ligament injuries. Our team has advanced training and experience in orthopedic procedures, delivering specialized care for pets in need of surgical intervention.

Pet Hygiene
Proper hygiene contributes to your pet’s comfort and health. Our veterinary technicians provide professional nail trimming, ear cleaning, and anal gland expression to help your pet stay clean and comfortable between visits.

Pet Travel Certificate
Traveling with pets—whether by plane, car, or internationally—requires more than just a crate and a leash. Most airlines and countries require an up-to-date pet health certificate to confirm your companion is healthy and fit for travel.

Pet Chemotherapy
A cancer diagnosis can be overwhelming—but you don’t have to face it alone. At Oakwood Veterinary Hospital, we provide individualized pet chemotherapy services designed to treat cancer while prioritizing your pet’s comfort and quality of life.

Geriatric Care
Older pets need specialized attention to maintain quality of life. Our geriatric care services include age-appropriate wellness exams, pain management, nutrition counseling, and early detection screenings to help your senior pet stay active and comfortable.

End-of-Life Care
When the time comes to say goodbye, our team is here to guide you with compassion and dignity. We offer gentle euthanasia and cremation options, and we’re committed to supporting your family through this emotional time with respect and care.
