About Umatilla Animal Hospital
Umatilla
Animal Hospital was founded in 1976 by Dr. G. D. Manley. Once the office
was established and grew into a large mixed animal practice - serving
both small and large animals communities. Along the way, Dr. Manley has
also included a large variety of exotics in his practice. Below are some
of the services available through Umatilla Animal Hospital.
Radiology
We
have a large xray in the office to radiograph small animals in all views
as well as thick and difficult views in large
animals in the Large
Animal Room. We also employ a portable Xray machine that we are able
to transport to the farm to xray the large animal in its normal habitat.
Ultrasound
This equipment allows us to observe structures inside the animal such
as organs, fetuses, tendon tears, and fluid densities without pain or
exposing them to X-rays. This equipment is of utmost importance in early
pregnancy diagnosis in the horse.

Surgical Monitoring
This equipment allows us to constantly measure the heart rate, the respiratory
rate, the oxygen saturation of the blood and the temperature of the animal
automatically.
Endoscopy
This is a piece of equipment that works like a TV camera that allows us
to look inside cavities, organs, sinuses, etc., to obtain a greater view
and observation of what is really going on inside the animal.
Telephonic Electrocardiography
This method allows us to connect an animal to a portable electrocardiographic
transmitter and transmit the EKG of an animal directly to a facility where
a staff of Veterinary Cardiologists will interpret the EKG and recommend
treatment of the animal.

Computer Technology
The computer allows us not only to keep all records in an orderly and
quickly retrievable manner but allows us to hook up by modem to on-line
services of other veterinarians and universities to allow us to research
a problem in a more in-depth manner.
Ambulatory Services
