VETERINARY SERVICES
The Exotic and Bird Specialty Clinic of New Hampshire provides a full range of veterinary services, allowing us to become the single resource for your exotic pet's medical needs. General services, as well as radiology, ultrasound, full laboratory services, ECG, respiratory and blood pressure monitors, orthopedic surgery, soft tissue surgery, and intensive care facilities are all available.
Examinations
Annual or semi-annual examination are the most important part of keeping your
pet healthy. Since diet and management are so important in exotic pet medicine,
it is imperative that regular check-ups and discussions of health matters
occur.
Vaccinations
Some pets such as ferrets require vaccinations. In ferrets, distemper is fatal
but is easily prevented by regular vaccination.
Preventive Medicine
The clinic has developed a variety of preventive health sheets to maximize
your particular pet's health based on their age, risk factors and species.
Diagnostic Testing
Many exotic pets hide illness until too late. The judicious use of blood testing
and x-rays can spot disease early where it can be treated more successfully.
Surgery
Exotic pet surgery is different than the larger pets such as dogs and cats.
It requires specialized equipment (for example, birds have no diaphragms so
the use of a ventilator during surgery is required) and expertise. We have
extensive experience in surgery on ferrets, rabbits, reptiles, small mammals
and birds.
Emergencies
We have trained the staff at the Capital Area Veterinary Emergency Service
(Ralph Pill Marketplace, 22 Bridge Street, Concord, NH. Exit 14 off of I-93)
to handle exotic pet emergencies and this is the preferred emergency clinic
for you to take your pet to. Their telephone number is 1-877-929-1199.
Exotic Pet Information
The clinic has developed a variety of preventive health sheets to maximize
your particular pet's health based on their age, risk factors and species.
These are available during the examination and will be discussed with you.
