What to Expect During Your Pet Wellness Exam
Our comprehensive physical pet exam goes far beyond a simple check-up. We meticulously evaluate your pet from nose to tail to ensure every aspect of their health is covered:
- Physical Assessment: A thorough check of the eyes, ears, mouth, skin, coat, heart, lungs, and abdomen.
- Weight and Nutrition Consultation: Discussing proper diet, maintaining a healthy weight, and addressing any feeding concerns.
- Vaccination Review: Ensuring your pet is protected against common diseases with a personalized vaccine schedule.
- Parasite Prevention: Recommendations and testing for heartworms, fleas, ticks, and intestinal parasites.
- Behavioral Discussion: Addressing any changes in behavior that may indicate underlying medical issues or require training/environmental adjustments.
- Diagnostic Screening: Recommending bloodwork, urinalysis, or other screenings, especially for senior pets, to assess organ function.
The Importance of Preventative Vet Care
Regular preventative vet care is the most valuable investment you can make in your pet’s future. For pets, one human year equals several animal years, meaning changes can happen rapidly.
- Early Disease Detection: Conditions like kidney disease, diabetes, and certain cancers are much more manageable when diagnosed early through routine screenings.
- Pain Management: We can identify subtle signs of pain or degenerative joint disease that owners often overlook.
- Behavioral Health: We help keep your pet happy by addressing issues that impact their quality of life.
Our team has the expertise and state-of-the-art equipment to provide the highest standard of care, treating every pet as if they were our own. Whether you have a new puppy/kitten needing their first check-up, or a beloved senior, we are dedicated to providing compassionate, authoritative care.
