Day Heights Veterinary Clinic offers various specialized pet medical services for
HIGH-END CARE.
Since pets age at a much quicker rate than humans, these visits will become increasingly important in early detection of any changes in their health.
Diagnostic Laboratory Services
Why is our in house laboratory important?
Using our in house laboratory, as well as commercial and university facilities, we are able to perform a variety of laboratory procedures for your pet. These procedures include chemistry profiles and complete blood counts and biopsies.
Radiology
WHAT IS DIGITAL RADIOLOGY?
Radiographs allow the veterinarian to evaluate and diagnose many problems including orthopedic, gastrointestinal, and cardiovascular disorders, as well as diseases of the urinary system. All of our radiographs are taken in our hospital and interpreted immediately by the veterinarian.
Ultrasound
What is a pet ultrasound?
Ultrasound uses sound waves to examine your pet’s internal organs. This technology is used to assist the doctor in diagnosing conditions of the internal organs or the heart.
Acupuncture
What is acupuncture?
Acupuncture is the treatment of conditions or symptoms by the insertion of very fine needles into specific points on the body to cause a desired healing effect. Acupuncture can be used as a treatment by itself, or in conjunction with other modalities, such as Chinese herbal therapies, food therapies, and Western medicine. Each acupuncture point has specific actions when stimulated. Combinations of points are often stimulated to take advantage of synergistic reactions between them. From arthritis or incontinence to cancer, Dr. Kirwin can help you figure out whether acupuncture should be a piece of your dog’s overall wellness plan.
Behavioral Counseling
How can we assist you with behavioral issues?
If you’re concerned about or bothered by an aspect of your pet’s behavior, we can help. Our doctor can work with you and your pet to stop or change the behavior. Many aggressive, fearful, or inappropriate behaviors in dogs and cats can be modified through a combination of desensitization and counter-conditioning. These techniques can have dramatic results when applied properly. In some cases, medication can also help. Contact us for an appointment if you’d like to consult with Dr. Manharth.
