Services
 - In house laboratory
- Our hospital uses the IDEXX LaserCyte Hematology and
VetTest computerized systems, allowing us to perform blood cell counts and
serum chemistries within minutes. This enables us to get our diagnosis
faster and begin treatment immediately.
- General and laser surgery
- We
offer all routine surgical procedures, as well as emergency and orthopedic
procedures. Our CO2 Laser seals the blood vessels and nerves, allowing for
far less bleeding and pain than routine methods of surgery. We use the
safest anesthesia available, sevoflurane. For additional safety we use the
latest anesthesia monitoring available which includes ECG, blood pressure,
respiratory, and oxygen monitoring. We also have a pediatric "bair-hugger"
patient warmer that allows us to prevent hypothermia (low body temperature)
during surgery and recovery.
- Holistic medicine
- We offer a wide array of nutritional, herbal and alternative medicine
therapies. Dr. Richter practiced for many years with a board certified
veterinary acupuncturist and developed her understanding of the eastern
medicine exam in addition to her conventional western training. This
integrated medicine approach is a hallmark of her approach to veterinary
medicine.
- Preventative medicine
- This is the mainstay of your pets health.
Routine vaccinations, de-worming, heartworm medication, and dentistry are
necessary to keep your pet in tip-top shape. Older pets (7 yrs) can
benefit from a Geriatric Profile. This small battery of tests can detect
early problems such as diabetes, renal (kidney) disease, liver, and heart
problems. All we need is a small blood and urine sample. Ask us about it!
- Dentistry
- Dental care is a favorite area of preventative medicine for Compassion
Veterinary Hospital. It has been proven that routine dental cleanings and
continued preventative dental care help prevent heart and kidney disease.
Humans beings who floss their teeth live an average of 10 years longer than
those who don't floss! We have found preventative dental care is just as
important if not more so in our beloved pets' care. Please feel free to talk
to the staff about all of our dental services.
- Pet supplies
- We carry a wonderful array of specialty foods for dogs and cats. We
have diets that help with arthritis pain, obesity, diabetes, allergies, and
sensitive digestive systems. Our diets are guaranteed not only to taste
great, but to work or your money back! We have specialty supplies such as
New Hampshire produced Lupine leashes and collars, guaranteed for life, even
if chewed! We also carry a wide variety of tick and heartworm medications,
including Frontline and Heartguard. We always have a few new fun things
around, too. Come by and take a look!
- Grooming
- Not available yet, but coming soon!
- Doctor supervised boarding
- Climate-controlled environment for dogs and cats with daily bedding
changes. Dogs are exercised in our private yard at least 3 times a day.
(Please call ahead, until our new boarding and doggie day-care facility is
finished, space for boarding is limited at this time.)
