Progressive Dental Care

The number one health problem diagnosed in 8 out of 10 cats and dogs over 4 years of age is periodontal disease. We provide an extensive dental care program. Preventive dental care can add 2-4 years to the life of a pet. Optimum dental care truly is a fountain of youth for your pet.

State of the Art

CCPH is equipped with all the state-of-the-art equipment to provide the best care for your pet.

Complete In-House Laboratory –
Our complete in-house laboratory gives us point-of-care diagnostic abilities when we’re treating sick or injured pets, and allows us to properly evaluate every surgical case prior to anesthesia.

Digital Ultrasound –
Fully digital ultrasound allows high quality, noninvasive imaging of the abdomen and chest. Many diseases can be accurately diagnosed with ultrasound: pancreatitis, heart disease, kidney infections, and inflammatory bowel disease to name a few.

High Frequency X-ray –
Our high frequency X-ray machine and our Rare Earth X-ray film system produce the highest quality radiographs, allowing our doctors to see fine detail and subtle changes.

procedures resulting in quicker recoveries and better diagnostics.
