Waiting Area
Our waiting room has ample space and separate areas for dogs and cats. We are dedicated in ensuring a stress-free visit for your pet. If you have a nervous pet please feel free to check in with your pet waiting in the car and bring them in once it is their turn. The scale is located right by the door, where you are asked to make a quick pitstop so that we can monitor your pet’s weight.
Did your pet enjoy time in the mud before coming in? No worries, we have towels right outside the front door. We also provide indoor slippers for our two-legged friends for a more comfortable visit.
The waiting area for cats is located directly in front of their examination room. Whenever possible we try to get your cat directly into the examination room to avoid having to share space with dogs.
Lounge Room
Our lounge provides you with an area to relax in during longer procedures. You can relax by the fireplace, utilize our free WiFi, and enjoy some complimentary coffee or tea, as well as some light snacks. Please feel free to immerse yourself into one of the books in the library or our coloring books for adults.
Examination Rooms
We have two examination rooms for dogs and a third separate one for cats. All of our examination rooms have calming pheromones that reduce stress. This is where the general examination takes place as well as blood and urine sampling.
Dental Room
Anident provides a state-of-the-art state-of-the-art dental room. We have two fully equipped dental care stations, both of which include a digital dental X-ray, as well as modern dentistry equipment. Our materials are the same top-notch quality that are used in human dental care and we order additional specialized equipment intended specifically for veterinary use directly from the USA.
Both dental stations have modern anesthesia monitoring equipment and ventilators. The patients are always intubated throughout the procedures and given IV fluids via an infusion pump. All medications are chosen specifically for the patient and conducted procedure. Our anesthesia protocol is based on the multimodal technique, meaning we use different medications and procedures throughout the treatment to help maintain the anesthesia and prevent any unnecessary pain. Each patient has a veterinary technician closely monitoring vital functions, together with the veterinarian in charge.
Dental Radiographs
The digital dental radiograph is a vital diagnostic element. Anident’s dental radiography machine is modern and efficient: we are able to process the images of two patients simultaneously on two work stations.
CBCT-imaging allows us to view the target in 3D in addition to the 2D radiographs.
Preparation room
Here, we prepare our patients for surgeries. Their fur is clipped and the area is cleaned aseptically. We can also apply small sutures here, along with taking biopsies and other samples.
Radiology
Our radiology room includes a full-size radiography machine and a CBCT machine allowing for advanced imaging. CBCT imaging is especially useful in jaw fractures and oral tumor diagnostics. For regular, full body radiograph imaging we have a modern digital radiography machine, which we use for thoracic and abdominal imaging as well as official hip, elbow, stifle, and spine imaging.
Recovery Kennels
We have separate recovery kennels for our dog and cat patients. Both are located immediately next to the operating rooms, where we can directly supervise the recovery of our patients. Where necessary, the owners can accompany their dog in the recovery area if the patient needs a familiar person around for their recovery.
Surgical Equipment Maintenance
Surgical instruments and equipment maintenance are very important to us at Anident. We have carefully devised routines and specialty equipment that is comparable to that in human medicine. Even though oral surgery, by definition, is not completely sterile, we follow strict aseptic guidelines in our procedures. For example, all of our root canal instruments and other instruments in contact with blood are autoclaved and stored in a sterile manner before use.
Staff area
Our staff has their own entrance to the building and comfortable social spaces as well as a shower. Some of our staff’s dogs spend the working day in an important role as “kitchen dogs.” During a busy workday the happy dogs provide stress relief. After the workday they help us recharge our batteries with a walk in the local national park.
