Pet Wellness Exams

Preventive pet healthcare can extend your pet’s life as fully as possible, both in terms of what it can do and how long it can live. We recommend twice-yearly wellness visits.

What does a wellness examination include?

Comparable to a human physical, a pet’s full examination is known as a “snout to tail” examination. We first talk with you about your pet’s past while getting to know and reassuring your pet (we have snacks!). As we talk about your pet’s past, we’ll start collecting their vital signs and gathering other data to check for any problems and establish a baseline for what is typical for your furry friend. The weight of your pet will be noted, and his various body systems will be examined to look for any anomalies. If there are anomalies, we might need to request additional testing to determine the cause. Before proceeding, you and the doctor will talk about any necessary treatment options and come to a decision together. If a blood test, vaccine, or other procedure is required, it will be carried out. Once all of your questions have been answered, and everything seems to be in order, your pet’s session is over.

Why is this so important?

Your pet is unable to communicate physical problems to you. From an evolutionary perspective, it is really normal for an animal to conceal symptoms like pain because they reveal weakness to other creatures. Our team will be able to identify issues before they become unmanageable. For pets, preventative medicine can be lifesaving.
