Services
Wellness Exams
Comprehensive physical examinations assess pets' overall health and detect early signs of disease. Our veterinarians evaluate weight, coat condition, dental health, and organ function during routine visits. Regular check-ups help establish baseline health metrics and enable preventive care planning.
Vaccinations
Customized vaccination schedules protect pets against common infectious diseases. We administer core vaccines for rabies, distemper, and parvovirus, plus lifestyle-based vaccines for bordetella and leptospirosis. Our team explains vaccine benefits and potential side effects during consultations.
Diagnostic Imaging
Digital radiography provides immediate internal imaging for diagnosing fractures, arthritis, and organ abnormalities. Ultrasound technology offers detailed soft tissue visualization for abdominal and cardiac evaluations. These non-invasive tools support accurate diagnosis without prolonged patient discomfort.
Surgical Procedures
We perform spays, neuters, mass removals, and orthopedic surgeries in our sterile surgical suite. Pre-anesthetic bloodwork ensures patient safety, while advanced monitoring equipment tracks vital signs throughout procedures. Post-operative care includes pain management and recovery instructions.
Dental Care
Professional dental cleanings remove plaque and tartar buildup to prevent periodontal disease. We perform extractions, treat oral infections, and provide home care guidance for maintaining dental hygiene. Annual oral exams help identify early signs of tooth decay or gum disease.

Great vets but getting very sick of waiting in the parking lot for prescription while everything else is open should open the doors.

I have been a client there for year's . The vet's take the time to talk thing's over about your pet with you if there are any concerns with them. All of the staff are friendly and pleasant, weather human or animal. It is a very busy clinic so you know the service's they provide are good.

My fur babies have gone to Ostrander for the past 15 years and I couldn’t have asked for better love and care. Unfortunately I have had to say goodbye to my cats recently, but knowing they had the best care through their 16 and 18 years of life puts my heart at ease. Special thanks to Julie Boutin for giving my Keek and Koko all the care that they deserved.

Ostrander Veterinary Clinic went above and beyond when we had an emergency situation and weren't able to see the vet in person. When we did get in, Dr. Julie was amazing with our elderly ferrets, and you can tell that she knows what she is doing. Kira and Crasher want to say: "Thank you to Dr. Julie and the staff at Ostrander Veterinary Clinic!"
