• Dental floats
• Coggins testing
• Fecal egg counts (McMaster testing)
• Deworming programs
• Castrations
• Sheath cleanings

Preventive care allows us to identify potential health concerns early while helping your animals enjoy longer, healthier lives.

Farm Calls & Emergency Care

We understand that transporting large animals isn’t always practical. That’s why North Star offers both in-hospital appointments and scheduled farm calls to better serve our clients throughout the Fayetteville area.

Farm calls are available every Thursday in multiple locations throughout southeastern North Carolina. If your animal experiences an illness or injury, our team can evaluate many conditions—including colic, lameness, eye injuries, wounds, and other medical concerns—either in the field or at our hospital.

When transportation is needed during an emergency, emergency haul-in assistance may also be available.

Advanced Diagnostics & Performance Medicine

Accurate diagnosis is the first step toward effective large animal vet care Parkton, NC. Our portable digital radiography system allows us to evaluate fractures, bone abnormalities, joint changes, and other orthopedic conditions both on the farm and in the clinic.

When appropriate, our veterinarians collaborate with your farrier to develop corrective hoof care and shoeing plans that support long-term soundness, comfort, and performance.

Integrative Care for Health & Performance

North Star Veterinary Hospital offers integrative therapies that complement traditional veterinary medicine to help improve mobility, manage pain, and support healing.

Dr. Krivit is certified in both veterinary chiropractic care and acupuncture and provides these services in the hospital and during farm calls. These therapies may benefit animals recovering from injury, managing chronic pain, improving athletic performance, or simply aging more comfortably. By combining modern diagnostics with traditional and integrative medicine, we’re able to provide comprehensive care tailored to each animal’s unique needs.
