better too.All of our clients are

February with a ten percent discount
applied for dentals performed during that month.If you took advantage of National Dental
Health Month in 2011, then you have a coupon on file for additional savings prior
to January 31 and between March 1st and April 30th for
the same patient who had the dental last year.Be sure to call us today to schedule your pet’s oral health

A new early non-invasive
detection test for cancer is available at Mid North.Nobody likes to think about the possibility of their pet having cancer,
but the earlier it is detected, the sooner treatment can begin.A new blood test is now available to help
differentiate cancer from chronic inflammatory bowel disease, and to help detect
lymphosarcoma and hemangiosarcoma earlier without invasive or more expensive
procedures such as surgery and ultrasound.The test is not perfect, but has a high correlation of accuracy.If our doctors feel this test is warranted
for your pet, we may recommend it to help aid us in earlier diagnosis and
monitoring after treatment has occurred.
