Providing Everything You Need

Wellness Exams

Annual exams for your pet include an overall examination of your pet's health. In this examination we will listen to your pet's heart and lungs and check their teeth, ears, muscles, and joints. We will also administer vaccinations and perform laboratory tests to check for any underlying diseases.

Dentistry

Dental disease can not only be bothersome to your pet but can also cause pain, further disease, and other health problems. Regular dental procedures are the best way to eliminate that. Dentistry is performed under general anesthesia and involves cleaning the plaque and tartar off of your pet's teeth. The overall health of the mouth is examined by the veterinarian during this procedure as well. Blood work will be performed before, and every patient is monitored by the veterinarian and veterinary technician for the entire procedure.

Surgery

Our veterinarians perform many surgeries including neuters, spays, mass removal, and laceration repair. Additional surgical procedures are performed routinely as well. Every surgery is performed by a veterinarian and at least one veterinary technician. Before surgery, your pet will be examined and laboratory blood work will be performed to ensure your pet's safety under anesthesia. Your pet will receive an IV catheter for fluids during surgery and will have their vitals monitored the entire time until they wake up.

All walk-ins and call-ins are accepted during normal business hours from 8am-5:30pm. If your pet has an emergency after hours you should call Nashville Veterinary Specialists at 615-386-0107 or Nashville Pet Emergency Clinic at 615-383-2600.

IMAGING

We use digital radiography (x-rays) and ultrasound imaging for diagnostics.

MICROCHIPPING

A microchip is a small chip placed under the skin of your pet and is the most reliable form of pet identification if your pet goes missing. Once we microchip your pet they are registered. If they were to go missing they can be scanned, and your name and phone number will be on file for them.

PET BOARDING

Whether you need someone to watch your pet for the day or while you're away on vacation we can handle it. We provide food and water, time spent outside in our fenced in yard throughout the day, and will administer any medications your pet may need. Dogs and cats are kept in separate rooms to provide an ideal stay for your pet.

GROOMING

Nail trims, anal gland expression, and ear flushing are all provided. We do not provide professional hair grooming services, but we do provide shaving and trims for medical reasons.
