Whether you're bringing in your family dog, a show horse, or livestock that represents your livelihood, Palmetto Veterinary Medicine & Surgery provides comprehensive veterinary care at our McConnells and Rock Hill, SC, locations. With two full-service facilities, advanced diagnostic equipment, and a team of three experienced veterinarians, we offer the expertise and resources your animals need to live healthy, active lives.
General Veterinary Care
Regular wellness exams are the foundation of good health for your pets and livestock. These examinations allow us to detect potential problems in their early stages, when treatment is most likely to be successful and less expensive. During a wellness exam, our veterinarians perform a thorough nose-to-tail examination, checking vital signs, evaluating body condition, and looking for any signs of illness or injury.
Preventive care is just as important as treating illness. We provide vaccinations to protect against serious diseases, parasite screening and control for both internal and external parasites, and nutritional guidance tailored to your animal's age, breed, and lifestyle. Our in-house laboratory allows us to run blood work and urinalysis quickly, while our digital x-ray and ultrasound capabilities help us diagnose conditions accurately. For large animals, we offer both haul-in services at our well-equipped facility and ambulatory care when needed.
Pet Dental Care
Dental health affects far more than just your pet's teeth. By age three, most pets show early signs of periodontal disease, which can lead to pain, tooth loss, and serious health problems affecting the heart, liver, and kidneys if left untreated. Our pet dental services include thorough oral examinations, professional cleanings to remove plaque and tartar buildup, and dental x-rays when needed to assess problems below the gumline.
We use modern equipment and techniques to provide safe, effective dental care while your pet is under anesthesia. Our experienced technician monitors patients throughout procedures to ensure their safety and comfort. For large animals, we also provide dental care including routine floating for horses and dental evaluations for livestock.
Pet Surgery and Advanced Care
Our surgical capabilities range from routine spay and neuter procedures to advanced orthopedic operations. We perform soft tissue surgeries, TPLO procedures for cruciate ligament injuries, and other specialized operations using modern techniques and careful pain management protocols. Both of our facilities are equipped with complete surgical suites, and our patients receive attentive monitoring throughout their procedures and recovery.
For animals requiring overnight care, our experienced on-site technician provides around-the-clock monitoring to ensure the best possible outcomes. We also offer critical care services, pain management, and emergency treatment when your animals need immediate attention.
