The animal exam room allows for routine physical examinations, as well as clinical procedures and other diagnostics such as ultrasound, endoscopy and digital and conventional radiography. An on-site surgical suite complete with isoflurane anesthesia, pulse oximeter and capnograph monitors, and ventilator permits a full range of surgical procedures.
