Area Veterinarian Offers Advanced Small Animal Reproductive Services

Gordonsville, TN - Julia Adams, DVM has announced that her clinic, the Animal Wellness Center also now houses "CLONE Tennessee", a franchise of Cryo-genetic Laboratory of New England (CLONE), the largest international canine reproductive freezing organization in the world, with CLONE associates in the United States and 15 other countries.

"I am privileged to have been chosen to participate in the CLONE organization," said Dr Adams. "The statistical figures of success make CLONE the leader of all organizations combined world wide." And now we are able to offer this leading edge technology to reputable animal breeders and pet enthusiasts in Middle Tennessee and throughout the Southeast.

CLONE Tennessee services include OFA and PennHip evaluations, DNA kits, progesterone tests and fresh shipper kits.

Additionally, CLONE Tennessee - the only CLONE franchise in Tennessee - offers the extraordinary Trans-cervical technique known as the Norwegian Pipette System. This system entails passing a small catheter through the female's cervix where the sperm is deposited directly into the uterine horns, whereas most practitioners in the United States must inseminate a female surgically with the use of anesthesia - or the less-successful placement of reproductive fluid in the female - to produce litters with frozen sperm.

Dr. Adams offers the Norwegian Pipette System as well as surgical implantation. "We are able to offer a variety services for individual clients, as we understand that no one protocol is best for everyone."

For more information about Dr. Adams' services, call the Animal Wellness Center at 615-683-6600 or email animalwellnesscenter@yahoo.com. To learn more about CLONE Tennessee or CLONE Reproduction and Fertility, visit www.cloneusa.com
