Move to new side of building

We are excited to announce that Phase 1 of construction will be completed in early March. We will start seeing patients on that side of the clinic the week of March 4th. Monday, March 4th will be a moving day. If you have a scheduled appointment on March 4th you will enter the clinic through our normal front doors. We will have reduced appointments on that day. We will be exclusively in Phase 1 from March through June while the remainder of the clinic undergoes a full renovation.

Here are some changes that will occur from March to June:

• We will be implementing curbside for all appointments and medication or food pick-up. Please call from the parking lot to check in and we will call when a room is ready for you to enter.

• You will enter through a new front entrance into a small makeshift reception area and a staff member will meet you to usher you into an exam room

• Our surgical appointments will be limited for those 3 months. We will still be able to do surgery but have a limited number of cages and recovery areas. Surgical drop-off and pick-up will also be curbside.

• If you purchase food from the clinic, please plan as we will be carrying a reduced volume of food due to lack of storage. You can also visit our online pharmacy and order your food from our online store https://springhillvet.vetsfirstchoice.com/.

  • Administrar Colirios Oculares A Su Gato - Gatos

    Applying Eye Drops to Cats

    Administrar las gotas oculares de forma correcta es muy importante en la recuperación de infecciones o lesiones en los ojos de su gato. Asegúrese de leer cuidadosamente la etiqueta y entender las intrucciones de la prescripción médica. Si surge cualquier duda, comuníquese con su veterinario.

  • Administrar Medicación Líquida A Su Gato - Gatos

    Giving Liquid Medication to Cats

    La manera más fácil para administrar medicación líquida a su gato es mezclándola con comida húmeda. Para asegurarse de que su gato se traga toda la medicación, lo mejor es mezclarla en una cantidad pequeña de comida y ofrecérsela con la mano, mejor que mezclar en un bol entero de comida que puede que no termine.

  • Adrenal Cortex Tumors

    An adrenal cortex tumor is an abnormal growth of cells in the adrenal cortex. These tumors result in overproduction of cortisol and can be malignant (cancerous) or benign. In both cases, an adrenal cortex tumor can cause Cushing's disease in dogs. Malignant tumors can metastasize to other organs, including the kidneys, lymph nodes, and thyroid gland. The sooner a diagnosis and treatment plan can be determined, the better the outcome for your pet.

  • Adrenal Medulla Tumors

    The adrenal medulla is responsible for producing hormones such as epinephrine, norepinephrine, and dopamine. An adrenal medulla tumor is the result of abnormal, uncontrolled growth of the cells that produce these hormones. These tumors may go undetected for a long time and clinical signs may be subtle. These signs could include weakness, excessive panting and restlessness, newly noted anxiety, and an increase in drinking and urination. The biggest concern with these tumors is their ability to continue to grow and invade local tissues, which can make surgical removal difficult or impossible.

  • Albuterol Sulfate

    Albuterol sulfate is a bronchodilator, used off label, to treat asthma and cough related to bronchoconstriction. It is administered as an inhalant in cats and by mouth, as a tablet, in dogs. The most common side effects include nervousness, shaking, fast heartbeat, and dizziness. Use with caution in pets with diabetes, hyperthyroidism, high blood pressure, seizures, heart disease, abnormal heart rhythms, or pregnancy. If a negative reaction occurs, call your veterinary office.

  • Alcohol Poisoning

    Ethanol overdose by ingestion, inhalation, or skin absorption leads to alcohol poisoning. Isopropanol (isopropyl alcohol/rubbing alcohol) and methanol (methyl alcohol) can also cause alcohol poisoning. If a pet is not showing clinical signs, decontamination may be performed, including inducing vomiting (for ingestions) or bathing (for skin exposure). Other therapies are discussed. Recovery is expected within 24–36 hours of the onset of signs.

  • Alendronate

    Alendronate is a bone resorption inhibitor used to treat high levels of calcium in the blood in cats and dogs. It may also be used as part of the treatment plan for some types of bone cancer. It has been used to treat feline odontoclastic resorptive lesions (FORLs or tooth resorption) in cats. Alendronate comes in tablet and liquid suspension forms.
