Animal Clinic offers a warm and inviting atmosphere combined with
a staff dedicated to the compassionate care of animals and their
owners.
At Wieuca Animal Clinic, we strive
to make you and your pet's visit with us as stress free as possible.
We are now operating primarily on appointments, but will take
drop offs, schedule an appointment with a doctor at discharge
time. The other services that need appointments are surgeries,
boarding, and baths. At this time we do not have separate waiting
areas for cats and dogs so, for the safety of your pet and others
around you we do require that pets be placed on
a leash or in a carrier before entering the waiting room.

Examination
Rooms
Our three exam rooms provide a quiet and private area
where your pet can be thoroughly examined from head-to-tail.
Our veterinary technicians will greet you in the examination room,
take your pet's vital signs, obtain pertinent history, and will
obtain specimens for annual health screenings. The doctor will
then review the information and perform the necessary examinations
on your pet. It's during this time that you should discuss any
issues that you have concerning your pet whether it be health
related, behavioral, or you're unsure what category it falls under. |

Laboratory
In our on-site laboratory, we are able to collect specimens such
as blood, urine and feces for rapid analysis of the patient's
potential health problem with the assistance of technologically
advanced equipment. During emergency situations our on-site
lab can provide crucial and timely diagnostic test results.
Should further testing be required, we are equipped to send specimens
to outside laboratories for additional advanced testing.

Our pharmacy is fully equipped to supply all of the medications
commonly dispensed to our patients. We also carry the two
major brands of flea/tick preventative (fADVANTAGE AND FRONTLINE)
and four major brands of heartworm preventative (HEARTGARD, INTERCEPTOR,
SENTINAL, AND REVOLUTION). We work very closely with a local apothecary
to custom compound medications when situations warrant. For convenience
to our clients we do offer in-home delivery for prescribed medications,
heartworm/ flea preventatives, etc through VetCentric

Treatment
Area
Our treatment area is the hub of activity for our hospital.
This is the area of our facility where most of the medical procedures
are performed. This area and adjoining room additionally
houses our critical care unit where post-surgical and seriously
ill patients are constantly monitored throughout the day.
After-hours, the most critical patients are taken to either Animal
Emergency Clinic of Sandy Springs or GA
Veterinary Specialist where veterinarians and
trained personnel are available to closely monitor their progress
around the clock. |

Surgery
Our surgical suite is equipped for both routine and emergency
operations. We use an inhalant anesthesia, Isoflurane, one
of the safest anesthetics available. With the help of the
pulse oximeter, respiratory, and cardiac monitors, our trained
staff can keep a watchful eye over your pet during surgery. We
also perform pre-operative bloodwork on all pets prior to any
procedure requiring anesthesia. |
