Complete Care for the Pets You Love
At Bayside, we provide comprehensive preventative, medical, and surgical solutions to ensure your pets live long, happy lives.
Comprehensive Preventive Care & Diagnostics
At Bayside Animal Medical Center, we believe preventive care is the foundation of a long, healthy life for your pet. Our comprehensive wellness programs include vaccinations, heartworm prevention, routine health screenings, and nutritional guidance.
Our advanced diagnostic capabilities allow our veterinarians to quickly identify and treat a wide range of medical conditions. We offer in-house blood chemistry testing, cardiology services, digital radiography, and ultrasonography, along with access to full-service referral laboratories for specialized bloodwork, pathology, and other advanced testing.
State-of-the-Art Surgery
Bayside features two fully equipped surgical suites designed to provide a safe and comfortable environment for every procedure. As one of the first veterinary clinics in Maryland to utilize pulse laser surgical system, our laser surgery can help reduce bleeding, swelling, and postoperative discomfort while promoting a faster recovery.
During anesthesia, our patients are carefully monitored using oxygen saturation, blood pressure, and cardiac monitoring equipment. Isoflurane gas anesthesia provides precise control and rapid recovery, helping our veterinary team maintain the highest standards of patient safety.
Our most common surgical procedures include:
- Spay and neuter procedures
- Tumor and mass removal
- Soft-tissue surgery
We also perform a broad range of specialty procedures, including orthopedic, exploratory, and ophthalmologic surgeries.
Ultrasonography & Digital Radiology
Bayside offers advanced diagnostic imaging directly in our hospital, including onsite ultrasonography and digital radiography. These technologies provide our veterinarians with detailed information to help diagnose conditions quickly and develop an appropriate treatment plan for your pet.
Acupuncture & Chinese Herbal Medicine
In addition to conventional veterinary medicine, Bayside offers acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine as complementary treatment options. Dr. Bray and Dr. Sims studied at the renowned Chi Institute and incorporates these therapies into individualized treatment plans when appropriate.
Acupuncture and herbal medicine may be beneficial as part of a comprehensive approach to conditions such as arthritis and other musculoskeletal conditions, hip dysplasia, intervertebral disc disease, and other chronic conditions. Our goal is to provide additional options that can complement traditional medical treatments and support your pet's overall health and quality of life.
Exotic Pet Care
Bayside provides veterinary care for a variety of exotic pets, including birds, rabbits, many small mammals, and non-venomous reptiles.
Preventive care is especially important for exotic pets. Our team provides guidance on proper husbandry, nutrition, behavior, and general care, along with wellness examinations and laboratory testing. We also offer diagnostic services and selected non-invasive surgical procedures.
We take a gentle, low-stress approach to handling exotic pets to help make each visit as comfortable as possible. If you have questions about caring for your exotic pet, our team is happy to help.
Advanced Dental Care
Good dental health is an important part of your pet's overall health and well-being. Bayside provides professional dental cleaning, ultrasonic scaling and polishing, and oral surgery when needed.
We recommend appropriate pre-anesthetic laboratory testing before dental procedures to help ensure that each patient is healthy enough for anesthesia. During procedures, our team uses comprehensive monitoring, including oxygen saturation, blood pressure, and cardiac monitoring, to promote patient safety.
Regular professional dental care can help prevent oral disease and keep your pet healthier and more comfortable.
Nutritional Counseling
Proper nutrition plays an important role in maintaining your pet's health throughout every stage of life. Bayside's nutritional counselors work with pet owners to develop individualized dietary recommendations based on each patient's needs.
We can help with:

- Nutritional supplements
We also offer a selection of specialty veterinary diets and nutritional products for patients with specific dietary needs.
