Overall

Awful

Prices are crazy, vets have no personality, my dog has had allergies for years but they never gave him medicine, just treated the symptoms to keep me coming back for more of my money. I'm done!

Sewickley Veterinary Hospital

Preventive Care

Dental Care
Sewickley Veterinary Hospital is a well-established, full-service, small animal veterinary hospital providing comprehensive medical, surgical and dental care to Sewickley, Baden, Ambridge, Edgeworth, Glenfield, Emsworth, Ben Avon, Avalon and Bellevue. We are conveniently located to most communities in the Pittsburgh Metropolitan area.
Vaccination
For the safety of all animals in our care, we require that all vaccinations be up to date. Even though we make every effort to make our patients feel comfortable during visits, they may be a little uneasy about new people, new surroundings and other pets. This is one of the reasons we ask you have your pet properly controlled in the clinic. We recommend that animals be placed on a leash or in pet carriers before entering the waiting room.
Veterinary Ophthalmology
Behavioral Counseling
Behavioral Counseling: We can provide advice regarding the correction of problems such as excessive barking, chewing, spraying, scratching, digging, house soiling and aggression.
Nutritional Counseling
Dietary Counseling: We will provide guidance regarding your pet's nutritional needs for each life stage, including dietary requirements for growth, weight maintenance and performance.
Comprehensive Examination
In order to keep your pet as happy and healthy as possible, we stress the importance of an annual physical examination for young pets and semi-annual exams for older pets or those with chronic conditions. Thorough check-ups and preventive care can help alleviate serious health problems. We offer a wide range of veterinary services to keep your companions feeling their best...

Illness Treatment

Parasites Treatment and Control
Pharmacy: We maintain a complete inventory of pharmaceuticals, vitamins, shampoos, flea and tick control products and heartworm preventatives to meet the needs of your pet. We also carry a full line of prescription diets.
Pain Management
Anything that causes pain in people can be expected to cause pain in animals. Pets may not show the same symptoms of pain as people do; they usually don't whine or cry, but you can be sure they feel it. Pain medications needed will depend on the surgery performed. Major procedures require more pain relief than things like minor lacerations.
Vomiting Treatment
Diarrhea Treatment

Chronic Condition Treatment

Obesity Treatment
Diabetes Treatment
Thyroid Disease Treatment
Hypothyroidism is a condition resulting from a lowered production and release of T4 and T3 hormones by the thyroid gland. The leading causes of this disease range from congenital disease, iodine deficiency, cancer, or can be of unknown etiology (origin).It is common in medium to large breed dogs, with some breeds being more predisposed than others. These breeds can include Doberman Pinschers, Irish Setters, Golden Retrievers, Labrador Retrievers, Great Danes, Old English Sheepdogs, Dachshunds, Miniature Schnauzers, Boxers, Poodles, and Cocker Spaniels. It is also more commonly diagnosed in middle-aged dogs between the ages of 4-10 years.
Heart Disease Treatment
Heart murmurs are sounds that are produced as a result of a disturbance in blood flow. Murmurs are classified according to a variety of characteristics, including their timing, grade, configuration, and location. Some heart murmurs can lead to heart failure while others are not progressive. Without performing diagnostic test, we cannot predict the progression of the disease or decipher the underlying cause of the murmur.
Kidney Disease Treatment
Due to the many symptoms and causes of kidney failure recommended tests include a blood chemistry profile, a complete blood cell count, and a urinalysis. These tests look for the levels of certain protein enzymes and chemicals such as creatinine and blood urea nitrogen (BUN). Another important diagnostic tool for of chronic kidney failure is x-rays and/or ultrasound imaging. These help to observe the size and shape of the kidneys to see if there are any noticeable abnormalities. Often, chronic kidney failure causes the kidneys to become abnormally small.
Periodontal Disease Treatment
Dental disease is the most common health problem in pets today. By the age of 2, 8-% of dogs and 70% of cats have some degree of dental disease. The first stage of dental disease is irritation of the gums around the base of the teeth (gingival). This results in exposure of the roots. Ultimately, this leads to infection, erosion of bone and other supporting tissues, and finally tooth loss. However, severe periodontal disease can lead to pathological fractures of the lower jaw bones, and/or erosion of the ventral part of the nasal sinuses leading to an infection that spans the maxilla (upper jaw bone) and nasal sinuses, called an oronasal fistula.

Wound and Fracture Care

Dental Surgery
Dentistry: Our dental equipment is state of the art and new as of 2019. We are able to provide full mouth digital dental radiographs, dental scaling and polishing, tooth extractions, and oral surgery.
Veterinary Surgery
Dr. Chamberlain’s special veterinary interests include emergency medicine, soft tissue surgery, ophthalmology, and clinical pathology, though she enjoys all aspects of medicine and cherishes the opportunity to develop relationships with her patients and clients. In her spare time, Dr. Chamberlain enjoys cooking, exercising, sports, traveling, and spending time with her pets Ollie (dog) and Lenny (cat).
Spaying and Neutering
Haley is a Certified Veterinary Technician that joined our team in September of 2018 and serves as our managing technician. She obtained her A.A.S in Veterinary Technology in western New York. Growing up showing Quarter Horses, she envisioned a career as an Equine Technician. However, plans changed and she found herself moving to Pittsburgh in January of 2015 to seek her first technician position. Haley accepted a position in High-Volume Spay and Neuter at Animal Friends before seeking a change of pace. Watching the new puppies and kittens grow up is her favorite part of being a Sewickley Veterinary Hospital team member. She has two cats of her own, Tulip and Maddox, who are both rescues from Animal Friends. When Haley is not at work, she is often found playing volleyball or reading a good book.

Laboratory Services
Proper cleaning of the teeth requires complete cooperation of the patient so plaque and tartar can be removed thoroughly, general anesthesia is required. Although anesthesia always carries a degree of risk, the risk is quite small when proper preventative monitoring devices are used and safe anesthetics utilized, even for older dogs and cats. Pre anesthesia blood work is recommended for any patients 6 years of age and younger, and is required for patients 7 years of age or older to ensure that there is not any underlying condition?s that may compromise the patient's safety during the procedure.
X-Ray
Recommended testing can include x-rays, blood work, ECG (electrocardiogram), echocardiogram (ultrasound of the heart), and blood pressure monitoring among other things. Unless heart failure is evident, your pet will usually be treated on an outpatient basis. Routine exams, blood work and annual chest x-rays are recommended in order to monitor the progression of the heart murmur and its associated disease. The course of treatment will be determined based on the associated clinical signs.
Microchipping
Permanent identification: We offer microchip identification with Datamar microchips. These chips are placed under the skin and provide life long identification for your pet.
