Twin Lakes Veterinary Hospital

Hospital Tour Welcome to Twin Lakes Veterinary Hospital. We are conveniently located at 1060 SW 320th St. in Federal Way, WA., approximately 2 miles west of The Commons (formerly Sea-Tac Mall). Ample parking is provided at our 5,000 sq. ft. full service facility.
	Reception Area Our friendly staff will greet you upon entrance. The spacious reception area has comfortable seating and is designed to allow for a smooth traffic flow in and out of our hospital. We do our best to provide prompt and efficient service.
Exam Room After checking in, our nursing staff will escort you to one of our four exam rooms. The rooms are ample in size and can accomodate the whole family. Before seeing the doctor, the nurse will weigh your pet, take the temperature, obtain a history and discuss preventative health care issues with you. Our doctors will then provide a thorough and comprehensive examination and make recommendations for treatment or care. We even offer treats here for your pets!
	Pharmacy In an effort to provide one-stop-shopping for our clients, we offer an extensive and well stocked veterinary pharmacy to meet all of your pet's prescription needs. Non-prescription products, such as flea/tick medications (Advantage, Program, and Frontline) are also available.
Dental Station Proper dental care is important in the health and well-being of your pet. Our dental station is well equipped to meet all of your pet's dental needs. Many procedures, such as teeth cleaning, dental x-rays, extractions and oral surgery are performed here. A healthy mouth is a healthy pet!
	Laboratory Our in-house laboratory allows our nursing staff to provide fast and accurate diagnostic tests, such as blood tests, urinalysis, and fecal exams. This aids our doctors in obtaining a quick diagnosis and initiate treatment as soon as possible.
Surgery Suite Our surgical suite is where all surgeries are performed under strict sterile conditions. We provide the safest anesthetics available and comprehensive patient monitoring throughout the surgery until full recovery. The suite is well-equipped with the latest anesthetic monitoring devices, surgical instruments, and equipment (including a surgical laser).
	Radiology Room Shown here are our veterinary nurses taking an abdominal x-ray on a dog. X-rays are valuable in diagnosing such conditions as fractures, internal organ enlargement, heart/lung diseases and bladder stones.
Treatment Area This area is where your pet receives its treatment while hospitalized. It is a very busy part of the hospital, being occupied by our veterinary nurses and doctors throughout the day. Diagnostic procedures such as obtaining blood/urine samples, anesthetizing and preparing patients for surgeries, and patient evaluations are some of the other common activities performed here.
	Nurses' Station This area is our "in-patient" office. All hospitalized records are kept in this location. Maintaining thorough and complete records are important to patient care. This area keeps us well organized at a glance. Here, patients' records are reviewed, necessary treatments recorded, and owner discharge information is completed.
Wards/Hospitalization Hospitalized patient care is sometimes necessary in the treatment of your pet's illness. We strive to make your pet's stay as comfortable and short as possible. Patients are monitored and evaluated throughout the day by our doctors and staff. Hospitalization also involves good nursing care; feeding, cleaning and medicating patients. Progress reports are given daily to pet owners of both medical and surgical patients.
	Kennel/Boarding Veterinarian supervised boarding for both dogs and cats is provided in our climate controlled facility. Due to limited space, reservations should be made in advance. Current vaccines and a fecal sample are required at the time of admittance. Each animal is kept in individual stainless steel quarters. Indoor runs and an enclosed outdoor courtyard provide an exercise area for our guests. Bathing services, which include medicated and flea baths, are also available.
Doctors' Office/Library Our doctors spend their valued time here to return calls, discuss lab results, discuss hospitalized cases, and consult with specialists. Our extensive library and internet service provide the resources necessary to maintain our high quality of medical care and preventative medicine.
