Our compassionate team is here to help. We’ll be with you throughout every stage of your pet’s life
Diagnostics
It is difficult to see your pet in pain or suffering and not know what’s wrong. Our team provides state of the art in house diagnostics to help us learn what’s wrong and provide an accurate diagnosis. A quicker diagnosis leads to quicker treatment! We do diagnostic testing both in-house and with an outside lab so we can provide results quickly and accurately.
At Scott County Veterinary Clinic, we have state of the art diagnostic equipment including digital radiology, ultrasound, and in-house Complete Blood Count and Blood Chemistry machines. This equipment allows us to provide a fast, accurate diagnosis so we can help your pet feel better.
Emergency Care
While we hope you don’t need to utilize these resources, it’s important to be prepared. During business hours, please contact us immediately. We do ask that you please call ahead, at 502-863-5548, so that we are prepared to take care of your pet as soon as you walk in our doors!
If you have an emergency outside of our business hours, we recommend that you call MedVet Emergency Clinic at 859-276-2505 or Bluegrass Veterinary Specialists at 859-268-7604.
Exams & Consultations
We recommend annual wellness exams to keep our patients feeling their best! During a wellness exam, we will discuss your pet’s medical history and all current concerns. Our doctors will conduct a full-body, head-to-tail exam to get to know your pet and their needs. We will be able to answer all of your questions, address your concerns, and create a wellness plan tailored specifically to your dog or cat.
Microchipping
About 1 in 3 pets will go missing in their lifetime. Microchipping your pets is a great way to help lower this number!
The chance of being reunited with a lost pet increases greatly if they’re microchipped. Microchipping can offer reassurance that, if lost, animal shelters and veterinarians can identify your pet. A tiny microchip is placed under the skin between your pet’s shoulder blades. The microchip has an identification number on it, which can be read by a scanner. A veterinarian’s office or animal shelter can scan the chip to find out who owns the animal.
Nutritional Counseling
An estimated 59% of cats and 54% of dogs in the United States are overweight or obese. Good nutrition and weight management are key to your pet’s overall health. These healthy habits are created at a young age for your pet and it’s up to you to help them maintain these habits. Through a good diet and proper exercise, you greatly increase your pet’s chance at a long, healthy life.
Pharmacy
Whether your pet is in need of a prescription medication or diet, you won’t have to go far. Our in-house pharmacy allows you to fill your pet’s prescriptions during your appointment so you don’t have to spend time waiting.
For your convenience, we also have an online pharmacy. We have many foods, long term medications, flea prevention medications, and heartworm prevention medications available to be shipped directly to your door.
Preventative Medicine
Preventative medicine is important when our pets are young, but as our pets age and become prone to certain disease processes, annual exams and blood work become even more important.
Annual wellness exams keep your pets feeling their best! During the exam, our team will discuss your pet’s medical history and address your current concerns as well as do a full-body exam.
We will also work with you to create a parasite prevention plan tailored specifically for your pet. Parasites, and the diseases they carry, can all be prevented with proper medication and maintenance. Fleas and ticks are not only a source of irritation to your pet, but they can also harbor disease and adversely affect your pet’s health. Heartworm is a dangerous parasite that lives in the heart of dogs and cats, damages the heart muscle, and can be fatal.
We’re pleased to carry ProHeart 12 to keep your pets protected from heartworm for 12 months with just one injection. ProHeart 12 is an extended-release injection for dogs over 12 months old.
Surgery
Our team is highly skilled and experienced in performing a wide variety of pet surgeries using modern techniques, cutting edge equipment and always adhering to the strictest standards of safety and care. You can feel confident that when it comes to surgery, your loved one will be in excellent hands with our team!
We want to ensure both you and your pet feel comfortable before, during, and after a surgical procedure. The Scott County Veterinary Clinic team uses the best technology and our experienced team is here to answer any questions you may have. We will communicate with you during every step of the process, providing thorough updates for you before and after the procedure.
Vaccinations
The Scott County Veterinary Clinic team is here to keep your pets protected! Many of the diseases that can affect dogs and cats are preventable through proper vaccinations. Let our knowledgeable team guide you through setting up a vaccination schedule for your dog or cat to keep him or her protected.
Each pet may receive different vaccine schedules, as our team will ensure your pet is assessed as an individual with their needs being met. Factors we take into consideration include age, breed, time of year, and location.
Walk-Ins
There are times when you may not be able to schedule an appointment, and we understand that. In those cases, we welcome you and your pet to visit us on a walk-in basis.
Appointments are always preferred and will take precedence over walk-ins, but we realize the importance of having this option with people’s busy schedules.
