Our Services
Surgery & Dental
Our veterinarians are skilled in routine surgery and provide spay, neuter, dental, and other common surgical services. All patients are closely monitored by trained veterinary technicians and assistants while under anesthesia according to AAHA recommendations and protocols.
Preventative Care
We believe the best cure is prevention, whether that means keeping your pet's annual vaccinations up to date or ensuring that they receive effective medications to thwart those pesky parasites. Van Stavern Small Animal Hospital offers competitively-priced prescriptions filled both in-house and through our online pharmacy.
Boarding
We offer boarding for both cats and dogs. Boarding with our hospital means your pet will have a team of caretakers who already know your pet and its history, and can receive medical care if any new problems should arise. Our staff record and monitor information for each boarding pet to make sure issues are noted and cared for quickly and effectively.
Exams and Consultations
Every veterinarian's most important tools are their own senses and the knowledge gained by quality schooling and experience. Our veterinarians provide comprehensive examinations from the tip of your pet's nose to the end of their tail. Our goal is to provide top quality service by having an open conversation with our clients regarding the care of their cherished furry family members and treatment options tailored to fit each individual.
Diagnostic Testing
Our facility has the capability to run many basic lab tests, including blood chemistry, CBC, urinalysis, cytology evaluation, and more with same-day results. Proximity to Texas A&M University and partnership with IDEXX Laboratories also allows us to run more extensive and comprehensive diagnostic testing when necessary.
Diagnostic Imaging
From Ultrasound to X-Ray, we have you covered! Our staff is trained in effective imaging techniques for both digital radiology and ultrasonography, and our location allows easy access to veterinary specialists at the Texas A&M Small Animal Hospital for referrals and veterinarian to veterinarian consultation.
Surgery & Dental
Our veterinarians are skilled in routine surgery and provide spay, neuter, and dental services. Our hospital is also equipped to handle many other types of procedures, and can refer patients to Texas A&M Small Animal Hospital as needed for procedures which require a specialist. All patients and their vital signs are closely monitored by trained veterinary technicians and assistants while under anesthesia to help ensure that all goes smoothly while your pet is anesthetized. Our facility follows AAHA recommendations and protocols for surgical and dental procedures, including multi-modal pain management, IV fluid administration, and administration of appropriate medications. Dental radiographs are part of every cleaning to ensure that your pet's entire mouth is healthy.
