The Cornerstones of Exceptional Pet Care
Preventative Care, Diagnostic Accuracy, and Tailored Treatment
At the heart of Animal Health Center of Leawood lies a commitment to providing the very best in veterinary medicine. Our approach is centered on creating a comfortable and supportive environment for both pets and their owners. We believe that a healthy pet is a happy pet, and we strive to empower you with the knowledge and resources you need to ensure your companion thrives. Our foundation is built on three key principles: preventative care, diagnostic accuracy, and tailored treatment plans. We aim to not only treat illnesses and injuries but also to prevent them, giving your pet the best possible chance at a long, healthy, and joyful life.
Comprehensive Examination and Diagnostic Expertise
Annual Wellness Exams
Preventative care begins with regular check-ups, and Animal Health Center of Leawood offers a complete range of examination and diagnostic services designed to keep your pet in peak condition. During a routine check-up, our veterinarians will perform a thorough physical examination, checking vital signs, assessing overall health, and looking for any early signs of potential problems. Early detection is often key to successful treatment, and we are equipped with the tools and expertise to catch any concerns before they escalate.
Diagnostic Tools
Annual wellness exams are the cornerstone of our preventative approach. These allow us to monitor your pet’s health over time, track changes, and implement appropriate preventative measures, such as vaccinations and parasite control. Vaccinations protect against a range of common and potentially life-threatening diseases, while parasite prevention shields your pet from fleas, ticks, heartworms, and other unwanted guests.
Beyond routine check-ups, we offer a comprehensive suite of diagnostic services to identify and address health issues. We utilize state-of-the-art technology to gain a clear understanding of your pet’s condition.
Bloodwork and Urinalysis
Bloodwork plays a critical role in assessing your pet’s overall health. Our in-house laboratory allows us to perform a wide range of blood tests, including complete blood counts (CBCs), chemistry panels, and thyroid screenings. These tests provide valuable insights into organ function, identify potential infections, and help us tailor treatment plans to your pet’s specific needs.
Urine analysis is another essential diagnostic tool. This test helps us evaluate kidney function, detect urinary tract infections, and identify other potential problems.
Imaging Services
X-rays provide detailed images of internal structures, allowing us to diagnose a variety of conditions, from broken bones to foreign objects. We have advanced imaging capabilities to provide clear and accurate diagnoses, enabling us to create effective treatment plans.
Dental Radiography
If your pet is experiencing dental issues, we provide comprehensive dental care including digital dental radiography. This allows us to see the health of your pet’s teeth below the gum line.
Medical Services: Caring for Your Companion’s Health

We perform a variety of surgeries, including routine procedures like spays and neuters, which are essential for population control and the prevention of certain health problems. Our team is also experienced in soft tissue surgery, addressing a wide range of conditions from wound repair to the removal of tumors.
Pre-Surgical and Post-Surgical Care
Before any surgical procedure, your pet undergoes a thorough pre-surgical assessment to ensure they are healthy enough for the surgery. This includes a physical examination, bloodwork, and potentially other diagnostic tests. We use the safest anesthetic protocols and monitor your pet closely throughout the procedure.
Post-operative care is a crucial aspect of our surgical services. We provide detailed instructions on how to care for your pet after surgery, including pain management, wound care, and activity restrictions. We are always available to answer your questions and address any concerns you may have.
Dental Care: Maintaining Oral Health for a Healthy Pet
The Importance of Dental Care
Oral health is a crucial component of overall pet wellness, and Animal Health Center of Leawood is committed to providing exceptional dental care. We understand that dental disease is a common problem in pets, and we are equipped to diagnose and treat a variety of dental issues.
Dental Cleaning and Polishing
Regular dental cleanings and polishing are essential for preventing dental disease. During a cleaning, we remove plaque and tartar, which can lead to inflammation, infection, and tooth loss. We use specialized dental tools to carefully clean and polish your pet’s teeth, leaving them healthy and sparkling.
Dental Extractions
If your pet has advanced dental disease, we may need to perform dental extractions. Our veterinarians are skilled in performing tooth extractions safely and effectively. We prioritize pain management and ensure your pet’s comfort throughout the procedure.
