Preventative Medicine
Annual check-ups are one of the most important things you can do to keep your pet happy and healthy. Our clinic strongly emphasizes preventative care and has developed wellness protocols for every stage of your pet's life. One of the greatest reasons to have your pet assessed regularly is to monitor and treat conditions before they become serious or life threatening. Identifying diseases early on improves your pet's chances for a healthy, full life. Our pets age much quicker than we do so regular exams are one of the best ways to ensure your pet will live a long, healthy life.
Annual check-ups and screenings start by taking your pet’s vital signs. Typically, we’ll ask questions relating to your pets health such as eating habits, exercise and unusual behaviors. Diagnostic tests such as blood work, urinalysis and parasite testing may be administered. In addition to regular testing, we’ll ensure that your pet is up to date with its current vaccinations and disease screenings (heartworm testing and fecal samples).
Wellness exams are an easy and effective way to maintain control of your pet’s health. Early detection and correction of medical problems will help ensure that your pet lives a long healthy and active life.
