Dental, Wellness, and Preventative Care

A healthy smile is part of a healthy pet. We offer dental services along with wellness exams, vaccinations, and preventative care to help look after your pet’s health throughout the year. If you’re unsure what your pet needs, just ask. We’ll talk it through with you and explain our recommendations in a way that makes sense.

What Our Clients Say...

"Can’t say enough good things about Media City Animal Hospital. From the front desk staff, to the vet techs, to the doctors, to the lovely lobby and bathroom. Everyone is so caring and sweet. Dr. Rios is wonderful and thorough. And conservative in her treatment. I never feel pressured, or like they upsell or recommend unnecessary treatments. They truly care about animals and I always feel reassured when I leave. Thank you, MCAH!"


-Jinifer R.

"Media City always took amazing care of our cats! Each staff member from the front desk to the vet techs to the doctors truly care about every animal that comes in and out of the hospital! Even when we had concerns, we felt taken care of from start to finish. I would 100% choose Media City Animal Hospital again and again!"


-Brooke T.

"Dr. Liz is amazing! We really appreciate her thorough care with our cat who needed extensive dental surgery and a small mass removed on his eye lid. Our cat is FIV+, so we are careful about which clinic we choose to provide him with routine care, and we are confident Media City Animal Hospital is the best in our area. The staff is always very friendly and courteous. It can get busy in the lobby at times, so if you have a nervous kitty I recommend bringing a small blanket to cover the carrier with. Thank you Media City Vet for taking such good care of our cat!"
