The Clinic - We are located on Sale Street in Downtown Tuscola. We renovated the exterior of the building. The original tile has been replaced with similar colored tile.

Exam Rooms - We try to make our exam room as comfortable as possible. You can sit in a chair or stand by your pets during exams. We like to encourage you to talk to your pet and offer treats during the exam. Your pet is comforted by you and our staff while we do the exams and other care. We have many informational brochures you can take home. You can learn about heartworm disease and prevention, flea prevention, the importance of blood work before surgery and while on long term medications, information about special needs of senior pets, arthritis, separation anxiety, brushing your pets teeth and much more. We also have containers containing heartworms, tapeworms, ticks and roundworms to help our clients understand what is happening inside their pet.

Lab - We have machines that allow us to run necessary bloodwork tests. We have the ability to do a complete urinalysis, heartworm test, Feline Leukemia and Feline Immunodeficiency Virus test, and fecal test. We also read cytology slides: including skin, fine needle aspirate, and fecal. We collect samples to check for ear and skin mites. We evaluate blood smears for parasites and blood cell morphology. We utilize outside laboratories for all other necessary testing.

 Surgery -  Dr. Kuhns does all of the surgeries in our clinic assisted by a technician throughout the procedure and recovery.  The technicians duty is to monitor your pet using ECG, pulse ox and blood pressure as well as direct monitoring. Each patient has an IV catheter administered before surgery. Some patients are also given IV fluids throwout surgery. Pain relief is given to each patient at surgery, as well as to go home.

X Ray - An x-ray can find problems we can't see on an exam or in blood work. Our digital x-ray equipment meets all standards of the Illinois Department of Nuclear Safety for proper exams and safety of your pet. X-rays allow us to look inside your pet for broken bones, bladder,  kidney stones, and objects your pet may have swallowed. We can also check for fluid in the lungs or abdomen and evaluate your pet's organs.



Hospital Ward - If your pet needs to stay at our clinic for the day, they are provided with their own cage, food and water dishes, comfortable bedding, and any other items they may need. Cats are also provided with a litter box. All cages and items are cleaned daily.
