BIRDS (AVIAN MEDICINE)
Dr. Douglas Heacock is passionate about avian medicine, in addition to canine and feline medicine. Birds make great companions with their fun personalities and beautiful colors. Many pet birds can live up to 50 years, providing decades of joy for those who choose these wonderful pets.
The services we provide are designed to address the full range of your bird's needs. This includes information on nutrition, training, hygiene, grooming, and advice on socializing your bird with other pets and family members.
​
Birds can develop medical conditions similar to dogs or cats, as well as a variety of illnesses that are unique to birds. Birds are well-known for hiding signs of illness, which can add to the challenge of diagnosing their medical problems.
Regular wellness visits will ensure the overall health and longevity of pet birds. It's an opportunity to ask us any questions about your bird and allow us to check for signs of health issues with a physical exam. We also offer wellness screening tests to assess your bird’s health.
Pet birds bring a special type of joy to a home, and we consider it our duty to provide them with quality medical care. Call today to schedule an appointment for your feathered friend!
