What to Expect at an Annual Visit
Your pet requires a regular checkup once a year to make sure that there are no developing issues of which we should be aware. At this appointment, our vet will perform a thorough physical examination that may also include vaccinations and blood work. We will make sure your pet is as healthy as possible, from the top of his head to the tip of his tail. This is a great opportunity to ask us questions about anything that has arisen from the time of your last appointment.
Before you visit, be sure you bring in any previous medical history you may have, so we have a full understanding of what your pet may require. You may also want to keep a journal of any problems that may arise, including changes in behavior or a change in diet, to help guide us in caring for your pet. Whether you have a journal or not, it’s important to share any information you feel may be important so we can tailor a plan to best fit your pet’s needs. Our team takes pride in working closely with pets and their owners to develop a unique and effective treatment plan that will produce great results. Trust us when we say that we care for your pet just as much as you do!
We Put Your Pet First
While our animal hospital is equipped to handle a vast array of medical problems, we may need to refer you to a specialist with more advanced experience in certain areas, including cardiology, to ensure your pet gets the best possible care. We only want your pets to get the best care, so we are happy to refer them to a different specialist if need be.
