Health Care Services in Duluth
While we focus heavily on disease prevention and wellness, our skilled and compassionate medical team is fully equipped to diagnose and treat a wide range of illnesses when your pet is sick. Internal medicine involves the non-surgical treatment of diseases affecting internal organs and body systems.
Internal Medicine
Our veterinarians, supported by advanced diagnostics, manage complex medical conditions such as:
- Kidney disease
- Heart and respiratory conditions
- Immune-mediated disorders
- Endocrine issues (such as diabetes or thyroid disease)
Whether your pet has a chronic illness or an unexplained symptom, we’re here to provide expert, personalized care.
Behavioral Counseling
Even well-trained pets can develop unwanted behaviors — and you don’t have to live with them or make heartbreaking decisions. We offer behavioral counseling to help you manage and overcome a wide range of issues in dogs and cats.
Common Behavioral Issues We Address:
- Inappropriate urination or defecation
- Urine marking
- Aggression or biting
- Separation anxiety
- Destructive chewing or digging
- Excessive barking
- Fear of storms or loud noises
- Trouble introducing a new pet
Potential Causes of Behavioral Problems:
- Environmental – Changes like a new pet, baby, or routine
- Learned – Unintentional reinforcement of bad habits
- Genetic – Certain traits passed down through breeding
- Medical – Illness or pain causing discomfort
- Degenerative – Cognitive decline related to aging
We begin with a comprehensive history and medical exam to rule out physical causes. Then, we work with you to create a customized plan, which may include behavior modification, training strategies, or medication.
Nutritional Counseling
Proper nutrition is one of the most powerful tools in promoting your pet’s health, longevity, and quality of life. Our team includes veterinary nutritional advocates who provide guidance for all life stages, activity levels, and medical needs.
We Can Help With:
- Life stage-appropriate diets (puppy, adult, senior)
- Managing allergies, joint issues, or chronic illness
- Weight loss or weight management programs
- Interpreting pet food labels and ingredient lists
- Choosing prescription veterinary diets

- Routine bloodwork

- Unexplained weight loss or appetite changes
- Swelling, masses, or changes in skin/haircoat
- Weakness, lethargy, or activity decline
- Atrophy or discomfort in specific areas
Diagnostic Tools:
- Digital X-rays
