Experienced Support for Specialized Eye Care
Veterinary ophthalmology requires a team that understands the details of eye care. Our technicians help with diagnostic testing such as tear tests, eye pressure measurements, and pre-surgical ERG and ultrasound, and they assist Dr. Gwin during procedures such as cataract surgery. Our front office staff helps you schedule appointments, prioritize urgent cases like glaucoma, process medication refills, and coordinate with your primary veterinarian.
We know nervous pets and worried owners need extra patience, and our team takes pride in making every visit as calm and comfortable as possible. Learn more about Dr. Gwin or our clinic.
