Our Services
Dental Care
Pet dental cleanings and checkups are incredibly similar to those performed by dentists on humans. During a dental exam, our veterinarian will carefully examine the pet’s mouth, gums, tongue, cheeks and teeth for any abnormalities or trouble spots.
Pet Vaccinations
At Cross Creek Animal Hospital, our veterinary care team is passionate about disease prevention in pets. Pet vaccinations prevent serious illnesses in dogs and cats, including highly contagious diseases such as parvo, distemper and rabies.
Our veterinarians offer holistic pet care services as a complement to traditional veterinary services. Pet acupuncture has proven a safe and natural way to relieve arthritis pain that pets often develop with age. It also helps relieve pain from injuries. By helping pets regain mobility, these treatments enhance pets’ overall wellness and quality of life.
Cross Creek Animal Medical Centre also believes in the power of good nutrition to improve pets’ quality of life and overall health. Poor nutrition leads to weight gain, which wears on a pet’s joints, as happens with humans. Our veterinarians advise pet owners on the best diet for their pet.
Our advanced animal hospital is equipped with advanced veterinary medical technology to support the highest quality of care. Our in-house laboratory enables us to immediately diagnose your pet to quickly begin treatment. Our surgical services include the latest in laser surgery to minimize pain and recovery time for your pet. And we offer the latest in radiology equipment, electrocardiogram (ECG), pulse oximeter monitoring and ultrasound.
We also have developed partnerships with specialists, available as needed through Internet technology, and without requiring your pet to leave our hospital.
We round out our offering of services with microchip implantation, onsite pet bathing and pet boarding facilities, and spay and neuter services.

Featured in The New Barker
Cross Creek’s very own Dr. Timothy Hodge has written a featured article for Volume 44 of The New Barker magazine! The New Barker is Florida’s top lifestyle magazine for dogs and their people. In this article, Dr. Hodge discusses the myriad of natural and safe methods of flea and tick prevention for dogs. Fleas and ticks can impact our pet’s health and wellness as well as cause chronic issues for our furry friends, which is why we believe proper prevention is always better for our pets and easier than treating an infestation.

Dr. Hodge and his entire team were absolutely wonderful with my Devon Rex kitten when I took him for his first wellness appointment.

Highly recommend!Posted on RobertaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dr. Hodge and his entire team are truly exceptional professionals and, even more importantly, exceptional human beings. He was our dog’s vet for a little over 8 years, and throughout all that time we were always met with empathy, kindness, and outstanding care. Everyone in the office was attentive, compassionate, and great at following up. During our dog’s final days, Dr. Hodge guided us with so much sensitivity, providing resources, clarity, and emotional support every step of the way, even after our dog passed. In his final moments, Dr. Hodge and his staff were incredibly supportive, gave us the space we needed, and made us feel like they were mourning with us. That meant more to us than words can express. We cannot recommend this team enough. Their knowledge, experience, compassion, and genuine care are unmatched. Anyone who chooses Dr. Hodge and his staff will be in the very best hands. Thank you for everything, Dr. Hodge, Paula, Edwin, Eniko, Tabitha, and Alicia. You are truly amazing people, and we are forever grateful for the love and care you showed our family and our Chewy.Posted on Stephen LicataTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
