veterinarians Dr. Darryl Mensik and Dr. Lollie Mensik are committed to ensuring pets receive the care they need to enjoy greater health.
Identifying Health Problems
Providing pets with care that meets their needs starts with identifying causes of conditions. Our Allen animal hospital features an in-office laboratory and a number of advanced diagnostic technologies, allowing our veterinary team to make a diagnosis as soon as possible. In the meantime, intravenous fluids and medication are administered at a constant rate to keep your pet comfortable and provide immediate relief of discomfort.
For pets coming to us from an emergency clinic, our in-office intensive care unit allows our team to continuously monitor pets for changes in their condition and ensure they have a peaceful, stress-free environment to rest between treatments. Overnight care is offered on a case-by-case basis and is often coordinated with a trusted local clinic.
Creating a Treatment Plan
Once we’ve identified the cause of your pet’s discomfort, our team is able to create a treatment plan for addressing their condition. During this phase of care, we work closely with pet owners to ensure they are fully informed of their pet’s needs, treatment options, and requirements their long-term care in order to ensure lasting health. Together, we prioritize long-term wellness.
Prioritizing Pet Comfort
During treatment, your pet’s comfort remains our focus. In addition to IV fluids, anesthesia is also used for your pet’s safety and ours. While under anesthesia, a dedicated technician monitors your pet’s blood pressure, body temperature, breathing rate, and heart rate. We also administer intraoperative medications to help control pain and send pet patients home medications to control inflammation and discomfort. We urge owners to contact our vets in the event their pet continues to feel uncomfortable, pained, or lethargic.
Maintaining Long-term Wellness
Ultimately, our goal is to ensure your pet’s lasting health. During discharge appointments, our vets provide pet owners with a treatment plan to ensure successful recovery and prevent additional problems in the future. Depending on your pet’s needs, this can include the creation of a pain management plan, weight management, diet planning, or other strategies for maintaining pet health.
