A NEW ERA OF PET CARE Building the Veterinary Laser Center When we first introduced the K-Laser, our new therapeutic laser, at the clinic, we weren’t sure how our clients would take to having something out of a science fiction story treating their pets. We are delighted to see how much our clients trust us as they embrace the future of pet care.
cancer. It’s not fun to think about, but there are large studies ongoing to figure out why goldens have such a high rate of cancer and what can be done about it. In the meantime, being a dog with cancer just means I get to go to the clinic almost every week! As the dog of a veterinarian, the clinic is like my second home. I love getting to visit. There are always other dogs to play with, and I get lots of treats because everyone loves me. Plus, trips to the clinic mean I get to ride in dad’s old truck all by myself, which makes my whole day. Cancer is scary, but honestly, I feel like a million bucks! I’m still able to run around, play with my friends in the backyard, and steal butter off the counter when Dr. Clark isn’t looking — just don’t tell him about that last one. -Teton
Over the last few weeks, we’ve been able to use the therapeutic laser in many innovative and effective ways.
• Post-op: We’ve used the K-Laser immediately after surgery at the incision site to decrease inflammation and speed up healing. • Dermatitis: After treating skin lesions or chronic dermatitis with our therapeutic laser, clients report seeing their pets healing far quicker, sometimes fully healed before the follow-up two days later. • Dental: The K-Laser has been used right after dental extractions and treated cats who were suffering from very bad gingivitis. • Pain Relief: Most of our efforts have been made in this area. Clients report a noticeable difference after the K-Laser is used to treat pets with sore muscles and other soft tissue, back, joint, and knee troubles. Clients are able to see their pets feeling better immediately. Bringing the K-Laser into the clinic wasn’t a decision we made lightly. We only bring in tools and technology that we are confident will offer clear benefits to our patients. We are committed to our growing role as the Veterinary Laser Center. This new treatment takes only a matter of minutes and can make a huge difference in a pet’s health and well-being.
