Wellness & sick/injured exams
Wellness & sick/injured exams
We offer a full line of wellness examinations and tests, as well as provide a variety of sick exam services and treatments. Some examples of things that warrant a sick exam are:
- Changes in your pets appetite, attitude, any GI upset, skin irritation/rash or reaction, changes in behavior, changes in urination, known toxic exposure, accidents, trauma or management of chronic conditions among other things.
Wellness examinations and some screening tests are recommended on an annual basis, or for senior pets a semiannual basis (meaning twice yearly!). Senior citizen status is not reached at the same age for all pets, it varies depending on your pets size and breed.
Wellness exams for pets are beneficial as they provide an opportunity for early detection of potential health issues. This proactive approach can lead to early detection and treatment, often resulting in better outcomes and lower healthcare costs. Additionally, wellness exams help establish a baseline for your pet’s health, enabling veterinarians to track changes over time and provide personalized care.
