The Importance of Preventive Care

Routinely scheduled wellness appointments are critical to helping your pet maintain their long-term health and well-being.

When combined with routine vaccinations, parasite prevention and proper nutrition, regularly scheduled routine vet appointments give your pet their best chance at lifelong health and happiness. 

When you bring your pet in for their regular checkup, we can prevent health issues from developing in your pet, or catch them early, when they are most treatable.

Cat & Dog Wellness Exams, Pet Check Ups

What to Expect During Your Pet's Check-up

Our vets will give your pet a comprehensive physical examination in order to get a complete picture of their health. This exam will include the following elements:

General Condition

Your pet's general demeanor and behavior can all provide indicators to your vet about their physical condition. You pet's level of alertness, the way the walk or stand, and whether or not they are a health size and weight can all be important clues to your pet's health.

Coat & Skin

Our vet will carefully check your pet's skin and coat for signs of health issues including bumps, lumps, dandruff, excessive dryness or oiliness or shedding. 

Face & Head

Your pet's eyes, ears and nose will be examined for abnormalities or discharge. We will also check the mouth for symptoms of oral health problems such as plaque buildup or periodontal disease. 

Internal Health

Your pet's heart rate, rhythm and pulse are all incredibly important indicators of their heart's health. We will test each of these in order to ensure they are normal. We will also check your pet's lungs for signs of abnormal breathing. 

Lymph nodes will be checked for pain or swelling, and we will also examine the abdomen to ensure the intestines, kidneys, bladder, spleen, liver and stomach all feel normal, and that your pet is not exhibiting any signs of discomfort. 

Review of Findings

At the end of your pet's routine wellness exam, your vet will take the time to discuss any concerns they may have about your pet's overall health and talk to you about your dog or cat's nutritional requirements. 

Checkups for Puppies & Kittens

In their first few weeks of life, puppies and kittens require diligent medical attention in order to start off on the right foot. 

We will provide your new best friend with a complete physical routine exam as well as the immunizations and deworming treatments they need, We will also test them for intestinal parasites.

Please never hesitate to contact us with any questions or concerns you may have about caring for your new pet, both at your appointments or following your visits.

Once your pet's initial appointment is complete, you'll return periodically for his or her required booster shots

Seniors

With recent advances in veterinary medical knowledge and care, as well as newer therapies and better nutrition, senior pets are living longer than ever. 

As your pet ages, regular examinations become increasingly crucial to ensure their continuing health and longevity. 

In addition to the routine wellness procedures we perform on all adult pets, we will give special attention to your senior pet's potential age-related conditions, such as arthritis or decreased vision. Additional laboratory tests will also provide information about your pet's overall health.

Vaccinations & Prevention

In the course of your pet's physical examination, our vets will also check to make sure they are up to date on their vaccinations or other preventative care.
