Dr. Eric Anderson: We had been practicing for about six years at that time and were ready for the challenge of practice ownership. We wanted to find a place where we could live and raise a family and then find a practice to buy or start one from scratch.
SM: Shortly after purchasing the practice you moved to a new location. How has the new clinic helped contribute to your success?
EA: The new location is highly visible located on State Rt 50 just north of the Village of Ballston Spa, yet it is very close to the original location. Long-term clients transitioned easily to the new location and for new clients it is easy to find.The building is eye-catching and really sells itself.
SM: What are some of the amenities that can be found at your state-of-the-art facility?
EA: First, we have an excellent staff of caring and professional people that do this job because they care about animal health. The hospital provides everything we need to provide top-notch care to all our patients including: a complete in- house laboratory providing detailed blood chemistries and hematology in minutes; digital x-ray for quick and amazing images that, if needed, can be sent electronically for quick interpretation by a certified veterinary radiologist; our state-of-the-art dental suite
with digital dental x-ray, ultrasonic cleaning instrumentation and high-speed drill for surgical extractions, makes it possible for us to take care of your pets dental needs; a spacious ultra-clean surgical suite with extensive instrumentation for advanced soft- tissue and orthopedic procedures including TPLO for cuciate ligament repair; physical rehabilitation room with an underwater treadmill to provide rehab services for post- op patients, neurologic cases, and arthritic pets; boarding facilities; and much more.
SM: What services are offered at Ballston Spa Veterinary Clinic?
EA: Wellness preventive care and education, vaccination, parasite control, spaying and neutering, digital x-ray, advanced dentistry and dental x-ray, hospitalization, and intensive care of critically ill patients. We provide diagnostic ultrasound, soft-tissue surgery including lumpectomies, foreign body removal, prophylactic gastropexy, abdominal exploratory and tumor removal, orthopedic surgery including TPLO for cruciate ligament tear, repair
of medial luxating patella, f racture repair by external fixation and bone plating, and physical rehabilitation in the underwater treadmill.
SM: What specific areas do you specialize in and what interests you most about small animal care?
EA: Dr. Salamun, my wife and business partner, myself, and our associates, Dr. Scott and Dr. Brennan are all well versed in general preventive care, small animal medicine, and general surgery. Dr. Salamun has extensive training and practical experience in diagnostic ultrasound, dermatology, and behavior. Dr. Scott and Dr. Brennan are both excellent diagnosticians for those really challenging medical cases, and I perform advanced surgical techniques such as large tumor removals, intestinal resections, TPLO for cruciate ligament tears, and fracture repair by various techniques. I think I can speak for myself and all the doctors in the practice that we love what we do. We enjoy the challenge of difficult cases. We love to keep learning and keep current on all new techniques and treatments. We take pleasure in making pets better and pet owners happy— it’s just that simple.
SM:Why should potential clients entrust the health of their pets to Ballston Spa Veterinary Clinic?
EA: The doctors and staff of the Ballston Spa Veterinary Clinic have one objective which is to provide the highest quality veterinary care available to all of our patients. Through client education and regular wellness examinations, testing, vaccination, proper nutrition, and parasite prevention. We want all pets to live long, happy healthy lives, but should they become ill or injured we will work diligently to return them to good health as quickly as possible.
