Services
Surgery
Our surgical services address conditions requiring intervention, from routine spays/neuters to complex soft-tissue procedures. We prioritize patient safety with preoperative assessments and postoperative monitoring. Surgical options aim to alleviate pain, correct abnormalities, and improve quality of life while minimizing disease risks.
Dental Care
Comprehensive dental services include cleanings, extractions, and disease management. We use digital X-rays to diagnose hidden issues and provide preventive care education. Untreated dental disease can lead to systemic health problems, making regular checkups critical for long-term wellness.
Ultrasound
Ultrasound technology allows non-invasive internal organ evaluation for abdominal issues, pregnancies, and musculoskeletal concerns. This painless procedure often avoids sedation, using sound waves to produce real-time images that guide treatment decisions like surgical interventions.
Chiropractic Medicine
Veterinary spinal manipulation therapy addresses musculoskeletal and nervous system conditions. This drug-free approach complements traditional treatments, focusing on the body's natural healing abilities. Sessions aim to improve mobility, reduce pain, and enhance overall function in cats and dogs.
Compassionate Euthanasia
We provide humane euthanasia services with emotional support for pet owners. Our quality-of-life assessment tool helps guide difficult decisions. Options include in-clinic procedures or referrals for home visits, with aftercare arrangements through trusted partners for cremation and memorials.

If you want to be quoted $200 to spay your dog only to have to pay $600+ when you show up for the appointment this is the place for you. Also expect to be told the person you spoke with about the quote over the phone isn't at this location and you must be mistaken. Seems that my experience isn't the only one as I have noticed another review stating the same thing happened to them . How many other people have had this happen to them?

Wingrove Vet exceeded my expectations!! I was so impressed by their curbside process. It is so streamlined and yet they do not sacrifice the personal touch. I called when I got there as instructed, they came straight out and took my dog (Ruby) inside. Within a couple of minutes the vet (Dr. Lisa Krill) called me to discuss the vaccines, the exam and any other concerns I had and let me know she would call me back if there was anything to discuss after the exam. I did not feel rushed as she explained everything thoroughly and went through options. When the appointment was finished they returned my
