Services
Dentistry
Annual dental exams and cleanings protect pets from health problems while maintaining oral hygiene. Our clinic uses advanced dental radiography to detect hidden issues. Professional dental care prevents periodontal disease and supports overall pet wellness through early intervention.
Vaccinations
Preventative care through proper vaccination protects pets against harmful diseases. Our tailored vaccination programs consider each pet's age, lifestyle, and health status. We follow veterinary guidelines to ensure optimal immune system protection while minimizing unnecessary treatments.
In-House Laboratory
On-site laboratory equipment provides rapid diagnostic results for timely treatment decisions. We perform blood work, urinalysis, and parasite screening in-house. Quick turnaround times benefit critical cases requiring immediate medical intervention and treatment adjustments.
Parasite Control
Year-round prevention programs protect pets from fleas, ticks, heartworms, and intestinal parasites. Our comprehensive approach includes environmental control and pet-specific treatment plans. Regular screening ensures early detection and effective management of parasitic infections.
Surgery Services
Soft tissue surgeries include spays, neuters, and lump removals performed with modern techniques. Cryosurgery offers non-invasive options for certain procedures. Our surgical protocols prioritize patient safety with pre-anesthetic testing and post-operative monitoring.

Friendly, knowledgeable staff. Always fully explain all details of the exam and answer any questions.
Covid protocols well in place and a seamless system for drop-off/pick-up. If you need a Vet, highly recommended.

We have always had incredible experiences with the Village Veterinary clinic. Our two most recent experiences unfortunately dealt with having to put down our beloved pets. Each time, the entire staff show so much compassion. A special call out to our vet, Dr. Mary Lynn Lackie. I hope you know how much we appreciate everything you have done for us and what you continue to do for our community.
