Our Story

All-Pets Hospital has a long history of serving the needs of Des Moines pet families! All-Pets Hospital opened in 1957 on NE 14th Street in Des Moines. At that time, All-Pets was only the third exclusively small animal practice open in Des Moines. In December of 2001, All-Pets Hospital moved to a newer and updated building at its current location at 1330 Second Avenue. This new facility allowed us to serve more members of the community and expand our offerings to include the latest in medical technology and procedures. Currently we see clients for a large variety of services: INTERNAL MEDICINE At All-Pets Hospital we treat many routine medical conditions that can impact your pet's health and well-being. From simple stomach upset to complicated illness, we strive to quickly diagnose and treat your pet's specific condition while causing minimal stress to you and your pet. This is why we utilize our in-house laboratory and radiology in conjunction with outside resources such as Antech Diagnostics and Iowa State University's pathology department. Dr. Berge is very interested in internal medicine and the complicated biological processes that keep your pet healthy. SURGERY AND PAIN MANAGEMENT All-Pets Hospital has an up-to-date surgical suite available for our patients. Patients are continually monitored during surgery with high tech equipment such as a pulse oximeter and a doppler blood pressure monitor. Most importantly, our highly trained staff observe patients closely before, during, and after surgical procedures. Common soft tissue surgeries include: Ovariohysterectomy (spay) Castration (neuter) Declawing and tendonectomy (cats) Tumor removals Caesarian Sections Cystotomy (bladder surgery) All-Pets Hospital is committed to ensuring patient’s pain levels are kept under control. Pain management treatments offered at All-Pets Hospital include pain patches, oral and injectable medications, and local anesthetic blocks. We treat our patients with the same care and compassion as we do our own pets, and will work hard to eliminate the pain and stress associated with anesthetic procedures. DENTISTRY Every pet needs a yearly dental exam as part of the comprehensive physical exam. The doctor will carefully examine your pets teeth and gums to determine if a dental cleaning is necessary. If left untreated, periodontal disease will not only lead to tooth loss, oral pain and bad breath, but is directly linked to liver, heart, and kidney disease. Should your pet have signs of tartar, gingivitis or other oral disease, the doctor will recommend a dental cleaning. Dentals are routinely performed on an out-patient basis with the pet undergoing general anesthesia. Each tooth is individually evaluated, scaled and polished using hand and ultrasonic scaling methods. When necessary infected or broken teeth are surgically extracted and the patient is treated medically with pain relievers and antibiotics. RADIOLOGY All-Pets Hospital has an on site radiology suite to offer our patients OFA screening, barium studies and many other diagnostic radiographic evaluations. Radiology is a useful tool in aiding the doctor and staff at All-Pets Hospital in creating a treatment plan specifically designed for your pet. BOARDING AND GROOMING All-Pets Hospital offers a full service boarding facility, and our excellent groomer has over 15 years of experience. New boarding and grooming patients are always welcome. Our competent staff is available during business hours to take reservations or answer any questions about boarding and grooming. REPRODUCTION Dr. Berge possesses a strong interest in reproductive medicine through her interest in breeding and showing AKC Bernese Mountain Dogs. Reproductive services Dr. Berge provides include artificial insemination, breeding timing, pregnancy diagnosis, and delivery monitoring. We highly recommend the Whelp Wise® uterine monitoring device during delivery. BEHAVIOR At All-Pets Hospital, we understand the importance of the relationship between animal behavior and human companionship, and strive to provide our clients with up to date information in this field. Dr. Berge has a strong interest in canine behavior and training, with over 20 years of experience in dog training and showing. Behavioral consultations are available by appointment. DERMATOLOGY Skin diseases affect nearly every pet during his or her lifetime. For many the problems may be chronic and recurring, leaving your pet miserable. Does your pet suffer from itchy skin, ear infections, hair loss, dry skin or hives? If you answered yes to any of these, then allergies may be to blame. While there are no cures for allergies, rest assured we can help your pet. EXOTICS All-Pets Hospital stays true to it's name by offering medical and surgical care to a number of species. We see rodents, reptiles, birds, rabbits, marsupials, and amphibians. Our compounding pharmacy allows us to flavor medications into very small concentrations needed by some of our smaller patients. Common exotic procedures include: Neutering of rats, rabbits, and mice Tumor removal and other minor surgeries Vaccinations Microchipping
