Preventative & Wellness Care
Routine and preventative care are the cornerstones of your pet’s happiest, healthiest life! From specialized and preventive care to regular pet wellness exams, our goal is to prevent health issues before they arise. Routine care includes regular wellness exams, vaccinations, dental care, external and internal parasite prevention, dietary management, behavioral counseling, and more.
Wellness exams allow us to really get to know your pet and what’s normal for them, establish a baseline for your pet’s health, and help us quickly detect any changes that may indicate problems. Health problems often go undetected in pets, and they can become more serious and difficult to treat by the time they’re detected. Even if your pet appears healthy, make sure they have their regular checkups!
Your pet’s health is always our number one priority, which is why, for most pets, we recommend annual pet wellness exams to ensure that your animal companion remains in good health. We highly recommend annual exams for adult pets and twice-yearly exams for senior pets. As pets age, routine bloodwork or radiographs can also be an essential component of their wellness care, as it allows us to monitor the aging process and keep them feeling at their best for as long as possible.
Our wellness and preventative exams typically include the following:
- Ear exam
- Eye exam
- Rectal exam
- Dental exam
- Skeletal exam
- Reproductive system exam
- Internal health evaluation
- Neurological evaluation
- Cardiovascular evaluation
- Nutrition consultation
- Behavioral counseling
- Vaccines (as needed)
- Microchipping (as needed)
Taking care of your precious pet’s health starts with regular wellness care. To schedule an appointment for your pet, call us at (678) 971-5550 today!
