About Us
At Nose to Tail Animal Hospital, we are dedicated to providing a positive and stress-free experience for both you and your pet. Our mission is to offer comprehensive veterinary care that prioritizes the well-being of your beloved animals. Since our inception in 2018, we have been committed to delivering exceptional service and care to the Northwoods community.
Our clinic is led by Dr. Kim VanLaarhoven (Kulik), who has been serving the area since 2008. With her extensive experience and passion for veterinary medicine, Dr. VanLaarhoven decided to open her own clinic to offer a different kind of care that focuses on decreasing pet stress and anxiety while maintaining affordability. Our state-of-the-art facility, built in September 2022, is designed to provide a comfortable and welcoming environment for both you and your pet.
We offer a wide range of services to ensure your pet receives the best possible care. Our services include general wellness appointments, sick pet care, and general surgery. We also provide large animal care, including vaccinations, exams, and specialized procedures like Coggins testing and floating teeth. Our dental care services are designed to keep your pet's mouth healthy, with routine cleanings and advanced dental radiographs available.
In addition to our medical services, we strive to make your experience as smooth and stress-free as possible. We require the Rabies vaccine for all dogs and cats to protect both our staff and your pets, as it is also mandated by state law. Our therapy medical laser combines wavelengths, pulsing, and power to achieve unparalleled therapeutic effects, including modulation of inflammation, reduction in pain, accelerated tissue healing, and increased circulation.
We believe that going to the vet shouldn't be a hateful experience. That's why we have multiple ways to decrease your pet's stress during the visit. Our ultrasound services allow us to see into the abdomen for bladder assessments, pregnancy checks, and free fluid detection. We also offer digital X-rays on site for quick and accurate diagnoses.
At Nose to Tail Animal Hospital, we are committed to helping you and your pet live a long and healthy life together. Our goal is to provide a pawsitive experience that makes you feel confident in the care we provide. We look forward to serving you and your furry friends.
