We want your pet to be as healthy as possible
so they can live a long, happy and ACTIVE life!
We provide the following SERVICES and SURGICAL PROCEDURES
SERVICES
Annual Medical Examination: A complete examination is carried out on an annual basis to monitor the health and well-being of your pet and to treat any of your pet’s conditions. The Jordan Veterinary Clinic requires an annual examination to uphold all prescriptions written by our veterinarians.
Most annual examinations require the following:
Fecal (stool sample) test - A check for internal parasites that may have infected your pet over the year. We can
deworm your pet if the test result is positive.
Heartworm test - A blood draw to check your canine for heartworm, which is spread by mosquitoes. Heartworm
disease is a serious illness that can rob your dog of its health and even its life if not treated. Heartworms live in the
heart and blood vessels and can only be detected by a blood test. Heartworm has been reported in all 50 states.
Four-way test - For common tick-borne diseases, such as Lyme, Anaplasmosis and Ehrlichiosis.
We verify that vaccinations are current and provide the following for your pet:
Dogs Rabies, Distemper combo, Lyme, Lepto, Bordetella, Canine Influenza (H3N8 & H3N2)
Cats Rabies, Distemper combo, Feline Leukemia

Flea and Tick Prevention: We highly recommend treating every month (year-round) for fleas and ticks. Not only are fleas and ticks a nuisance, they can pose grave health risks. Fleas can survive winter by feeding on unprotected pets. Some tick species can be active on winter days if the ground temperature is above 32˚F.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Heartworm Prevention: Heartworm disease is a serious illness that can rob your dog of its health and even its life if not treated. We highly recommend giving a heartworm pill every month (year-round). Heartworm pills also help prevent infection from some common internal parasites.

Microchipping: A microchip is a radio frequency identification transponder that carries a unique identification number. The chip is roughly the size of a grain of rice and is placed under the dog’s skin between the shoulder blades. After a microchip is implanted, you’ll complete a registration form. Note that a microchip is not a GPS-system; it cannot locate your pet. However, when a microchip is scanned by a veterinarian or by a shelter, the chip transmits the identification number, which is associated with your registration information. Always update any changes to your registration information (phone number, address, etc).

Pain Management: The management of pain can be a helpful for pets suffering with arthritis, injury, or other chronic debilitating diseases. Pain management is administered only after performing an examination.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Puppy and Kitten Health Program: Examinations are important to monitor growth and to help build immunity with appropriate vaccines. We recommend spaying and neutering all pets at an appropriate age.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Senior Health Program: Senior examinations are important to monitor changes as your pet ages. We recommend a yearly blood test that screens the kidneys, liver, thyroid, and blood sugar for diseases common to elderly pets. Screening can detect diseases early so we can treat your pet immediately to help extend life.

Surgical Procedures
We require all pets be examined and be current on vaccinations and appropriate tests or bloodwork before scheduling surgery at our facility.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Declaw: A procedure in which the last part of a cat's toe is removed in order to detach the claw and prevent it from growing back. Declawing a cat is not a required surgery. To keep your cat from destroying furniture, redirect their attention with toys and a scratching post. Also, trim the nails frequently. An examination is required before a declaw, at which time we will explain the procedure and aftercare.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Dentals: Dental health is an important part of overall health. Common signs of oral disease include tartar buildup, red and swollen gums, changes in eating and chewing, bad breath and pawing at the face. To help prevent major dental issues and dental disease, we recommend brushing your pet’s teeth with a pet-approved tooth paste and/or using water additives, C.E.T chews, or OraVet chews. We are equipped to clean, scale, and polish teeth under sedation and provide extractions as needed.

Dewclaw Removal: A dewclaw is a digit that commonly grows high on the leg of a canine, such that when the animal is standing the digit does not make contact with the ground. In many breeds, the dewclaw is traditionally removed in the first few days of a dog's life. If not, we recommend removing the dewclaw at the time of a spay/neuter, or at the latest 6 months of age.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Growth Removal: After performing a physical examination, our veterinarians can remove growths that are a burden to your pet’s health or are causing discomfort. Removal of a growth is a scheduled surgery. We can send the growth to our laboratory for a histopathology to identify the cells.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Neuter: This entails castration of a male animal via surgical removal of both testicles. There are many benefits to neutering your male companion, including preventing prostate disease and testicular cancer. Neutering can also help eliminate undesirable pet behavior. It helps reduce the number of unwanted and homeless pets.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Orthopedic Surgery: This type of surgery treats conditions involving the musculoskeletal system, including bones, joints, tendons, and ligaments. Some disorders never require surgery and can be managed medically, while other disorders need in-depth surgery. After a physical examination, assessment, and radiographs (x-rays), we can call in a board- certified surgeon for orthopedic procedures at our facility.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Radiology: Radiographs (X-rays) are one of the most useful tools for diagnosing medical and surgical problems. X-rays enable us to determine the location and severity of bone fractures. They help identify the symptoms of heart disease, bladder stones, and tumors. X-rays locate foreign bodies such as toys, bones, and other miscellaneous objects accidentally ingested by your pet.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Spay: This entails the sterilization of a female animal via removal of the ovaries and uterus (ovariohysterectomy). Spaying reduces the likelihood of mammary gland tumors, ovarian cancer, and uterine cancer. It helps reduce the number of unwanted and homeless pets.

Trauma Surgery: We perform trauma surgery, such as laceration repairs. A physical examination and assessment of the area of concern are conducted before surgery.
