swelling, less bleeding, and a quicker recovery. In addition to many
other surgeries, spays and neuters are performed daily and several

Hospital. Dr. Jordan has attended intensive training courses in various
aspects of orthopedic surgery to better serve our patient's needs. From
knee surgery to fracture repair, our orthopedic patients receive
excellent care to meet their needs. Our pain management protocols help

A laser is ideal for a wide variety of
surgical procedures for dogs, cats, birds and other pets. Laser surgery
can correct many common conditions such as cysts, tumors, warts and
infections that occur around the eyes, ears, in the mouth, and anywhere
on the skin. Specialized internal procedures are also possible. Our

Radiographs
& Ultrasound
Cross Creek Animal Hospital has a brand new, high quality radiology
(x-ray) machine and radiograph processor. From a tiny, baby Chinese
water dragon, to a great dane, we can take high-quality radiographs to
help us diagnose your pet's condition. Ultrasound is a very valuable
diagnostic tool used to assess an animal's internal organs. It's
available to us through VetSound, a mobile ultrasound service, which
generally comes to Fayetteville weekly. A pet that needs an ultrasound
can be dropped off in the morning to await his ultrasound appointment
and then go home the same night.

Dental
Cleanings/Extractions
Routine dentistry is as important for dogs and cats as it is for
humans. Scaling and polishing of the teeth, and fluoride treatments are
provided for each dental patient. In addition, our doctors perform any
dental extractions when and if necessary. More extensive dental needs
are met by referral to a board-certified veterinary dentist.

dentistry, and/or surgery. A professional diagnostic laboratory is
available five days a week for more extensive diagnostic testing for
our patients. Results are often available in less than 24 hours.

Allergy
Testing
Just like humans, dogs and cats can be afflicted with allergic
diseases. But unlike with humans, pets' allergies often manifest
themselves as skin itchiness (chewing of the feet for example). Through
detailed history, thorough physical exam, appropriate diagnostic and
therapeutic care, the allergic animal can have relief.

Heart
Health
Heart disease is more common in dogs and cats than you might think.
Early detection, timely and appropriate diagnostics, and therapeutics
when indicated are all very important to your pet's health and
wellbeing. Diagnostic work ups for heart disease may include
radiographs (x-rays), EKG, and/or an echocardiogram. From the physical
examination or history findings consistent with a heart problem, to
diagnostic tests to determine the extent of the heart disease, to the
therapeutics necessary to help your pet, we will help you understand
the options for your pet's health.

Physical
Therapy

flexibility and speed healing, our staff will help you understand how
to provide your pet with the best opportunity for healing after his or
her orthopedic procedure. Physical therapy can also benefit the older
arthritic patient.
