Welcome to Veterinary Regional Referral Hospital, Decatur Alabama



Welcome to Veterinary Regional Referral Hospital, Decatur Alabama

Dr. Michael Newman and his professional team work closely with your general practice veterinarian to insure that your pet’s surgical and diagnostic needs are met. We are dedicated to helping you and your pet enjoy each other’s company for years to come.

General Surgery

Our Hospital is equipped to perform most major soft tissue surgeries, particularly of the abdomen and chest. Surgeries involving neoplasia(cancer) are frequently performed. Follow-up chemotherapy is also available in appropriate cases.

Orthopedic Surgery

This includes joint and fracture repair using the latest equipment and techniques. All forms of fixation devices are available for use in the most complicated orthopedic cases.

Hips

Examinations and surgical recommendations are part of our hip evaluation program. We are presently emphasizing early detection and treatment where necessary for hip dysplasia in puppies. Routine examinations start at four months of age.

Spinal Column

Our caseload has evolved into a major referral center for spinal column disease. This includes intervertebral disc herniations, infections, neoplasia (cancer), and degenerative changes. Evaluations include plain and contrast radiography and cerebrospinal fluid analysis.

Critical Care

Many times a critically ill patient needs continuing care. The Veterinarians who provide our emergency services also provide critical care after-hours.

Advanced Imaging

Our capabilities include digital imaging and computerized tomography (CT). With these advanced techniques, we are better able to diagnose diseases in dogs and cats. Our state-of-the-art in-house lab is another capability that speeds the diagnostic process.

Continuing Education

Our service offers additional help to area veterinarians in the form of case reviews, second opinions, hands-on assistance with surgical cases, scheduled rounds as well as phone and radiographic consultations.

Emergency Services

We have veterinarians on staff who handle after-hours emergencies. Our emergency care service, that is care for a situation needing immediate attention, does not require a referral and is available only after-hours.
