Dr. Arlyn Cuthbertson moved to Elko in 1953 soon after graduating from veterinary school at University of California Davis.
He was eager to build a practice centered around livestock.
At that time the practice was about 80% large animal and only 20% serving cats and dogs and other various species.
To reach livestock and equine cases on ranches, he took flight lessons from Ralph Scott at El Aero and bought a "tail dragger" plane that could easily land in fields and on dirt roads.
For about 30 years, Dr. Cuthbertson flew to remote areas, becoming grounded in 1986 after he was injured in a plane crash.

Laser therapy has been around since the 1970s but has only recently been certified for use in veterinary care.
Nevertheless, it has been shown to be a highly effective treatment used to accelerate your pet's natural healing process and provide significant relief from pain and other associated issues.
Laser therapy uses high-energy beams of light in predetermined wavelengths in order to create a therapeutic effect in your pet.
Exactly what effect will occur will depend on the wavelength used, but typically, those lasers used in veterinary medicine stimulate your pet's body to produce something known as ATP - cellular energy which is used to repair damaged cells.

Much like detecting health problems in humans, it is rarely easy to identify a problem with your pet just by looking at her.
In fact, it can be very difficult to tell that your pet is ill at all since animals have a natural tendency to try and mask signs of injury or sickness so that they don't appear weak and vulnerable.
This means that often, by the time a pet is diagnosed with an illness or injury, their condition has become worse than it might have been if it had been identified earlier.
In order to make an accurate diagnosis for your pet, veterinarians need to have access to some important diagnostic tools.
