Mission
At Morris Veterinary Hospital our veterinarians and staff strive to keep the pets you love healthy and comfortable. From dogs to birds we provide preventative care, dentistry, surgery, radiology, and emergency services.
In proud association with:
Services
We provide a wide variety of services to care for your pets.
Vaccines and Annual Exams
–
Annual exams and regular vaccinations are essential to maintaining your pet’s health. During each exam we discuss your pet and make recommendations for vaccines based on their history and relative risks for disease.
Exotic Consultations
-
Some of our veterinarians are able to provide basic services and consultations for exotic pets including reptiles, birds and fish.
Serious cases can be referred to specialists in exotics.
Dentistry
–
Pet dental health is just as important to prevent other diseases as it is for human health. We offer advice on dental maintenance as well as dental cleaning, X-rays and minor dental surgical procedures
Pharmacy
-
Commonly used medications are kept continuously in stock. Less commonly used medications are usually available within 24 hours, and specialty compounded medications can be ordered.
Surgery
–
Our anaesthetic monitors are equipped with ECG, blood oxygen saturation, blood pressure, pulse strength and carbon dioxide sensors to ensure continuous watch and maintenance of our surgical patients. Each pet is accompanied by a registered technician trained in surgical monitoring and emergency response during each procedure.
Laboratory
-
We have an in-house laboratory system for urgent and emergency blood work, as well as urinalysis, fecal testing, and microscopy. We have a daily courier to a large veterinary diagnostics lab that gives overnight results for more complex analysis.
Dietary Consultations
–
Our trained technicians are happy to discuss your pet’s diet and suggest potential changes based on their age, weight, possible allergies and overall health..
Radiology
-
Our DR digital X-ray systems for both whole body and dental radiology give rapid results to decrease your wait time

She especially enjoys anaesthesia and dentistry, so she usually works behind the scenes, but you can instantly recognize her by her “Disney” themed scrubs.
