We offer wellness exams to make sure that your pet is happy and healthy throughout their life. Any time your pet comes in for immunizations they get a full physical exam to make sure they are healthy enough to receive a vaccine.
Things we look at while examining your pet:
- Eyes
- Ears
- Mouth/teeth
- Listen to heart and lungs
- Palpate abdomen
- Anus/vulva
- Range of motion with all four limbs
And of course we make sure to give as much love to our patients as they allow!!
We can also find changes such as heart murmurs and arthritis that may develop as your pet ages. Catching some of these conditions in their early stages allows us to tailor a treatment plan specifically for your pet to help keep them as healthy and comfortable as possible. Even if your pet is not due for vaccines, it is still recommended to come in at least once a year to make sure other body systems are still healthy.
