Animal Hospital Overview
Safety First
We give our patients the safest and most state-of-the-art anesthesia.
We use the exact same monitoring equipment that is used in Human Hospitals. When our patients are under anesthesia they are monitored by EKG, Pulse Oximetry, Blood Pressure, Temperature, Respiratory Rate just like children during surgery.
We are one of the few animal hospitals in Florida that has computers that breath for our patients during anesthesia just like people anesthesia. This added safety eliminates hypoxia which is the most common complications during veterinary anesthesia at ordinary veterinary hospitals.
Cleanliness
We keep our hospital extremely clean.
All rooms are sterilized between each patient. Because we work with exotic birds that can carry contagious viruses – that there are no vaccines for – we have a very extensive protocol that goes way beyond a regular veterinary hospital.
