Dentist
Upstate Veterinary Specialties, PLLC is a growing, privately-owned specialty and emergency practice located in upstate New York. As a privately owned hospital, the practice owners are active clinicians who take a team approach to manage the hospital. They make themselves accessible to the staff and are dedicated to making UVS the ideal veterinary practice for employees.
Our leadership, administration teams, doctors, and medical staff all work together in a collaborative environment to achieve our mission – helping pets live longer, happier lives through expert medical care and compassionate client service. We are a large team of dedicated professionals and take pride in being a leader in comprehensive specialty and emergency healthcare for pets.
The local Fellow of the Academy of Veterinary Dentistry is retiring, and the area is in great need of a veterinary specialist in dentistry. The dentist would join our existing team of board-certified specialists:
- Cardiology
- Critical Care
- Internal Medicine
- Neurology
- Ophthalmology
- Oncology
- Rehabilitation
- Radiology
- Surgery
Our clinicians are supported by highly educated licensed veterinary technicians, including one VTS (cardiology), assistants, client relations specialists, and administrative staff.
Our facility
This year we expanded our custom-built hospital, adding another 16,000 square feet, to our current 24,000 square foot facility. Those expansion plans include two (2) exam rooms and one (1) procedure space/work room dedicated to dentistry. These rooms will be left open so that they can be built-to-suit. Any additional equipment necessary for a state-of-the-art dentistry service will be considered.
Our current equipment includes: 1.5 Tesla MRI, 64 slice CT scanner, fluoroscopy suite, digital x-ray, 4 high-quality ultrasound units, underwater treadmill, multi-parameter telemetry, endoscopy suite, multiple surgical suites, full diagnostic laboratory, and in-house pharmacy.
