Our goal is to be your partner in taking care of your pet's physical and mental wellbeing, so you can enjoy many happy years together. So, whether your pet needs a checkup with a doctor. Dr. Ted grew up on a horse and dairy farm in Long Island, New York. He attended Cornell University for both undergraduate and vet school. After graduating from vet school in 1971, he practiced small animal medicine on Long Island until 1985.
He moved to South Florida in 1985 and purchased the Animal Clinic of West Lake Worth in 2003. Dr. Ted feels he has established a "home" at Animal Clinic of West Lake Worth. He has assembled a close-knit, capable, and caring staff.

It's hard to watch our beloved pets get older.
Especially if they suffer from arthritis, or from another heath condition that makes it difficult for them to enjoy their favorite activities.
And then, when the time comes, we can help you ensure your furry best friend has a peaceful, dignified, loving end of their life.
Getting old can be tough.
Just like us, pets start to slow down, and sometimes have trouble doing things they used to do with ease.
So if your senior pet starts to suffer from pain, mobility problems, or any other medical issue.

For that reason, diagnostic tests may be recommended for both well pets, and for pets who are ill.
For ill pets, diagnostic tests can help get to the root of the problem more quickly - and thus, get your pet treated and back to normal health faster and more efficiently.
The thing about sick pets is, they often have "non-specific" symptoms.
That means that something like vomiting could be caused by dozens of different factors, including: eating something that upset their stomach, eating something poisonous, a parasite, an infection, a hormonal condition, or a problem with the liver or kidneys.

Just like for us humans, sometimes it can feel scary when a loved one has to undergo surgery and anesthesia - and it's understandable that you might worry about your furry family member.
Here at Animal Clinic of West Lake Worth, we offer a variety of surgical services, ranging from routine spays and neuters, to special procedures such as abdominal surgeries, mass removals, eye and ear surgeries, and many more.
For many procedures, we'll also monitor blood pressure, EKG, and more, to ensure your pet stays safe.

If you feel your pet may be currently experiencing a medical emergency, please seek veterinary care right away.
However, just like for us humans, it's better to be prepared ahead of time, and know exactly where to take your pet should an emergency happen.
See our recommendations below.
Here at Animal Clinic of West Lake Worth, we can always see your pet during an emergency, at least when we're in the office.
But, after hours, you'll need to bring them to a trusted nearby emergency hospital that we recommend, Palm Beach Veterinary Specialists.

If your furry best friend gets a wound - such as a bite, scrape, cut, or burn - you'll want them to be healed as quickly as possible, and comfortable during the healing process.
For more routine wounds - like minor cuts and scrapes, broken toenails, or hot spots, for example - you'll still want to seek care as soon as possible.
That helps to ensure your pet won't make the wound worse - or get an infection - by licking or scratching it.
If it's not possible to bring your pet in right away, ask us what to do in the meantime, to help keep the wound clean and guarded until your appointment.
