 What is a parasite?
A parasite is a plant or an animal that lives on or inside another living organism (host). A parasite is dependent on its host and obtains some benefit, such as survival, usually at the host’s expense. There are two basic types: Internal parasites (endoparasites) such as heartworms, hookworms and roundworms, live inside the body of a plant or animal and produce an infection within the host. External parasites (ectoparasites) such as fleas, ticks, ear mites and sarcoptic mites, live on the body of the host and produce an infestation. It depends on the type of parasite, the degree of infection or infestation, and your pet’s reaction to the parasite. For example, a mild flea infestation may be of no consequence to some dogs, while others may show hair loss, itching and discomfort. Severe flea infestation may lead to significant skin disease, anemia or death, especially in young puppies.  Infestations by ear mites can cause otitis, or inflammation of the external ear, that can be complicated by secondary bacterial infections. Dogs may have odor and a crusty brown discharge from their ears. Sarcoptic mites can result in severe itchiness, hair loss and discomfort. These mites also affect humans who acquire them from contact with affected dogs. Parasites can be prevented and HPVC offers a full line of treatments | Emergency Services

 Hyde Park Veterinary Clinic offers boarding for our feline patients. We have a special “cats only” boarding room that is quiet and separated from the dog areas of the hospital. | Pet Nutrition
 All pets benefit greatly from a healthy diet free of by-products and preservatives and Hyde Park Veterinary Clinic recommends several brands of pet food that fit this description. These pet foods come in dry kibble or canned form and are different from most other pet foods because they are made with human grade ingredients, contain no by-products, no chemical preservatives and no corn or wheat fillers. Some pets with specific medical conditions require prescription diets to help control their symptoms. Hyde Park Veterinary Clinic carries Hill’s Prescription Diets and Royal Canin Prescription Diets. | Pharmacy
 Hyde Park Veterinary Clinic maintains a complete pet pharmacy on-site and we pride ourselves on quick turnaround on prescription refills. | Hospitalization
 Hyde Park Veterinary Clinic provides hospitalization for pets following surgery and for pets that are too ill to be cared for at home. Pets that are very ill are transferred to a nearby 24 hour critical care facility for intensive overnight care if needed. | Microchipping
 A microchip is a safe and permanent form of identification for your pet. Millions of pets have been reunited with their owners over the last decade thanks to microchips. The microchip is no bigger than a grain of rice and is implanted under the skin in just a few seconds. The process is similar to your pet receiving an injection and can be performed during a regular veterinary visit. | Radiology
 Hyde Park Veterinary Clinic has a complete in-house X-ray system. Our specialized x-ray equipment provides us with accurate and speedy results which helps us in the diagnosis of many diseases and traumas. | Laboratory
 Hyde Park Veterinary Clinic can perform many in-house diagnostic tests within minutes, which helps us reach a diagnosis for your pet quickly. Our laboratory can perform blood tests including complete blood counts, blood chemistry panels, heartworm tests and feline leukemia/FIV tests on-site in a few minutes. We also perform fecal parasite tests, urinalyses, fungal cultures and many other laboratory diagnostics in our hospital. We utilize an outside laboratory for biopsies and some of the more unusual diagnostic tests. | Surgery
 Hyde Park Veterinary Clinic’s doctors perform routine surgeries such as spays, neuters, and lump removals in our well-equipped operating room. All surgical patients are monitored by a highly-trained veterinary nurse during their procedure. All surgical patients are on continuous EKG monitoring and oxygen saturation monitors during surgery. Our doctors use the safest anesthesia methods and most effective pain management medications available.
Advanced surgeries, such as orthopedic surgeries, are referred to a local Board-certified surgeon. | Dentistry
 Studies show that 85% of adult pets have periodontal disease. If left untreated, dental disease leads to pain, bad breath, tooth loss and serious medical conditions. Pets cannot brush their own teeth, so they rely on us to keep their teeth healthy and treat problems when they arise.
Hyde Park Veterinary Clinic takes dental care for our patients seriously. We have state -of–the-art dental equipment including a specialized dental X-ray unit. With this equipment we can diagnose problems under the gum line that are undetectable by ordinary examinations. | Vaccinations
 The doctors at Hyde Park Veterinary Clinic tailor vaccination protocols to your pet based on his/her lifestyle. For instance, indoor cats do not need the full complement of feline vaccines because they have reduced exposure to other cats. Dogs that visit doggie daycare or boarding kennels need to receive Bordatella vaccinations more frequently than dogs that stay at home. Pets with a history of allergic reactions to a vaccine also need special considerations. | Drop-Off Option
 Hyde Park Veterinary Clinic offers a drop-off appointment option for the convenience of our clients. Your pet can be dropped off at our clinic as early as 7:30am on weekdays with a prearranged appointment. Our doctors will examine and treat your pet, and we will call you when your pet is ready to be picked up.
To make the drop-off process even more efficient, you can complete our drop-off consent form at home and bring it with you when you drop off your pet. Click here to complete Drop-off form | Examinations
 Wellness exams – Hyde Park Veterinary Clinic’s doctors perform a comprehensive physical exam on all new patients and on every patient before administering vaccinations. Wellness exams frequently uncover small problems that may go undetected by an owner but can be a big aggravation to a pet, such as a broken or loose tooth.
Senior semi-annual exams – Once pets reach 8 years of age, Hyde Park Veterinary Clinic recommends twice a year wellness exams. Pets age more quickly than people and it is much better to catch problems early in older pets.
Sick pet exams - When your pet is sick and comes into our clinic a complete physical exam is performed. Even though you may have only noticed a red, itchy ear, it is important to take a thorough look at your pet to be sure we uncover the root of the problem.
Hospitalized patient exams – Every patient that is hospitalized at Hyde Park Veterinary Clinic during an illness receives a daily physical exam by the doctor to assess response to treatment and closely monitor for new developments. | Domestic and International Health Certificates for Pet Travel
 The veterinarians at Hyde Park Veterinary Clinic have obtained special USDA Accreditation and are certified to provide health certificates for travel for companion animals.
Pets travelling by plane within the U.S. typically need a health certificate to fly. Pets travelling internationally need a health certificate and often extra specialized paperwork to enter the foreign country. The veterinarians at Hyde Park Veterinary Clinic are experienced at preparing your pet and all the required documents for travel to international destinations.
We have assisted clients in taking their pets to a number of foreign countries including Colombia, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Germany, France, England, Switzerland, the Netherlands, New Zealand, and many Caribbean islands including the Cayman Islands, St. Maarten, the Bahamas, and Bermuda.
