Our Veterinary Services
At Ocmulgee Veterinary Clinic, we provide comprehensive care for your companion animals at every stage of life. From their first puppy or kitten visit through their senior years, our team is here to keep your pets healthy, happy, and comfortable.
Preventative Care
Our services and facilities are designed to assist in routine preventive care for young, healthy pets; early detection and treatment of disease as your pet ages; and complete medical and surgical care as necessary during his or her lifetime.
Wellness exams are the foundation of good veterinary medicine. Regular check-ups allow us to establish a baseline for your pet's health and catch potential issues before they become serious problems. We recommend annual wellness exams for younger pets and twice-yearly visits for senior animals, because early detection makes all the difference in treatment outcomes and your pet's quality of life.

Vaccination programs are tailored to each individual pet's needs, taking into account age, lifestyle, environment, and overall health. Protecting your pet against common diseases is one of the most important things you can do as a pet owner.
We offer core vaccines for both dogs and cats, along with lifestyle-based vaccines depending on your pet's exposure risks. Our veterinary team will work with you to develop a vaccination schedule that provides thorough protection while avoiding unnecessary treatments. Whether your pet stays mostly indoors or loves to explore the outdoors, we will make sure they have the right coverage.
Ask About VaccinesSurgery
When your pet requires surgical intervention, you can trust the team at Ocmulgee Veterinary Clinic to provide complete surgical care performed with compassion and expertise. We perform a range of surgical procedures, from routine spays and neuters to more advanced soft tissue and orthopedic surgeries.
Every surgical patient receives individualized anesthesia protocols and careful monitoring throughout the procedure. We prioritize pain management before, during, and after surgery so that your pet is kept as comfortable as possible during recovery. Our team will walk you through the entire process and provide clear post-operative instructions so you feel confident caring for your pet at home.
Discuss Surgery OptionsMicrochipping
Pets are not only curious to explore their surroundings, but will sometimes wander outside the boundaries of home. A microchip is a tiny device implanted just beneath your pet's skin that carries a unique identification number. If your lost pet is found and scanned by a shelter or veterinary clinic, that number links directly back to your contact information, making it possible to reunite you with your companion quickly.
We are a proud PetLink partner, and the microchipping procedure is quick, safe, and can be done during a regular office visit. Unlike collars and tags, a microchip cannot fall off or be removed. It provides permanent identification for both dogs and cats, giving you lasting peace of mind.

Emergency Care
We understand that emergencies do not happen at the most convenient times. During our regular business hours, Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM to 5:30 PM, our team is prepared to handle urgent and emergency situations for your pet. If your pet is experiencing a medical emergency during these hours, please call us right away at 478-374-2999 so we can prepare for your arrival.
After-Hours Emergencies
For emergencies outside of our regular business hours, including evenings, weekends, and holidays, we refer patients to the Middle Georgia Veterinary Emergency Center (MGVEC). Their experienced emergency team is available when we are not, so your pet always has access to urgent care.

Grooming
Professional grooming is about more than just keeping your pet looking their best. Regular grooming helps maintain healthy skin and coat, prevents matting, and gives our team an opportunity to spot skin conditions, lumps, or parasites that might otherwise go unnoticed.
Our grooming services are available for both dogs and cats. Whether your pet needs a full bath and haircut, nail trimming, ear cleaning, or a seasonal de-shedding treatment, our groomers will provide gentle, thorough care in a comfortable environment. Contact us to schedule a grooming appointment that fits your schedule.
Book a Grooming AppointmentBoarding
When you need to travel or be away from home, our boarding facility provides a safe, clean, and comfortable place for your pet to stay. We have 14 kennels available, including 6 large kennels and 8 small kennels, to accommodate pets of all sizes.
Standard boarding is $20 per night, and we also offer special care boarding at $30 per night for pets that require medication administration, extra attention, or have specific dietary needs. All boarding guests receive regular exercise, fresh water, and plenty of care from our staff while you are away.
After Life Care
The hardest part of loving a pet is having to say goodbye. For many of us pets are so much more than just pets, they are family. Deciding how to handle a beloved pet's final life stages can be extremely challenging.
As both animal lovers and veterinary professionals, we here at Ocmulgee Veterinary Clinic want to support you when it is time to make end of life decisions. Our compassionate team will guide you through the options available, answer your questions with sensitivity, and ensure that your pet's final moments are peaceful and dignified. We are honored to walk alongside you during this difficult time and provide whatever comfort we can to both you and your companion.
