| Accreditation
NBVMA:
The Valley Veterinary Hospital has been
designated a fully accredited hospital by the New Brunswick
Veterinary Medical Association.
AAHA:
In addition to the NBVMA accreditation, we
have chosen to go one step further to demonstrate our dedication
to excellence. The American Animal Hospital Association is
highly regarded throughout the veterinary profession for their
commitment to optimum standards that apply not only to facilities
and medical records, but also to delivery of medical care
to our patients. The AAHA has been certifying hospitals throughout
North America that meet their high standards of veterinary
practice for over 50 years. There are three (3) levels of
certification and we are proud to have achieve the highest
level possible.

useful information, please visit their web site at healthypet.com

Examination Room
We have two examination rooms for the preliminary
evaluation of your pet.
Should further testing be required our laboratory
is used for blood, urine and fecal analysis. We have a blood
chemistry analyzer which provides quick and accurate results
for our patients. This enables us to provide rapid on-site
diagnosis any time.
An ECG is also available for Cardiac evaluation.
Any results that we cannot perform in the hospital are sent
to outside laboratories.

Medical Records
Medical records are the foundation of the
continuity in health care. Your pet's medical records are
updated and maintained on a computerized system which provides
a high degree of accuracy and accessibility. A printout of
your pet's medical record is available on request. In addition
we have computer programs for drug referencing, medical diagnosing
support and access to current veterinary literature.

Treatment Rooms
This is where hospitalized patients
are routinely examined and medicated. This is
also where patients are prepared for surgery.
All our injectable medications
are within easy reach. |

Radiology
Diagnostic imaging of soft tissue
and bone can provide critical information necessary
for an accurate diagnosis of your pet. In order
to provide high quality radiographs, we have a
high-powered x-ray unit and an automatic film
processor, capable of developing radiographs quickly. |

Dental Care
Veterinary dentistry is one of
the most rapidly advancing fields in veterinary
medicine. Consequently our staff have taken extensive
training programs and we have set up a dental
care facility complete with high speed drills,
polisher, ultrasonic dental scalers and numerous
periodontal instruments.
Routine dental cleaning is important
for preventative health care. This is where we
also do endoscopy which is a camera on a flexible
rod we use to scope your pets stomach, airway
or colon if necessary. |

Surgery
Surgery is an integral part of
our practice and is performed under aseptic conditions
similar to those in a human hospital.
Modern anesthetic equipment and
close patient monitoring ensure the safest and
most comfortable anesthesia for our patients.
In our surgery room we have up to date anesthetic
monitoring equipment that helps our veterinary
technicians monitor our patients accurately. During
anesthesia, a veterinarian and a technician are
always with your pet. Your pet's heart rate and
blood oxygen levels will be monitored with our
pulsoximeter. We use our blood pressure monitor
on all of our anesthetized patients which allows
us to use lower levels of gas anesthetic and keep
your pet safer. We have an electrocardiogram and
a defibrillator present in our surgery at all
times in case their use becomes necessary. A veterinary
technician also continually monitors anesthetic
depth and stays with your pet during and after
surgery. Each animal is placed on a warm water
circulating blanket in surgery which helps maintain
normal body temperature.
Possible surgeries performed
range from routine spays and neuters, to more
complex soft tissue and orthopedic surgeries.
