Wellness Exams/Vaccinations
Our wellness programs are designed for patients 6 weeks to 6 years of age. During the first six months of their life, they will have 4 visits, all including a physical exam. At each visit the appropriate vaccines and tests will be completed as the pet's age changes. Our patients 6 months and older will have a Canine or Feline yearly once every 12 months. Each visit will include a physical exam, yearly vaccinations, and fecal.
All canine patients will have a heartworm test and ear cytology at this time. It is very important to keep your pet current on all vaccinations for the safety of you and your pets. Examining your pet once a year allows us to find and diagnose problems or diseases that may be life-threatening to your pet(s). Pets age much faster than humans. One year of their life is equal to seven years of ours. A 10-year-old dog or cat is in comparison to a 70-year-old person.
We also take this time to talk to you about heartworm prevention and flea/tick control. These visits will allow us to keep you updated on any new advances or changes in the health care of your pet. We understand your pet(s) are part of your family and we will always strive to meet and exceed your expectations when it comes to the health and happiness of your pet.

Senior Wellness Package
As a pet ages and reaches their golden senior years, changes can happen that go undetected by the human eye or even with a physical exam. Most pets reach senior status by the age of 7. This does differ for large breed dogs, and our doctor will let you know when a senior package would benefit your pet. All seniors get a full blood profile workup and urinalysis. Some seniors may require a Thyroid Test, Ecg, or radiographs during their visit. Allowing us to diagnosis a problem before symptoms arise will allows us to monitor and manage any chronic issues or begin treatment for certain conditions. This package is recommended once a year, six months after their routine yearly exam with vaccines.
Physical Exam
Blood Profile Major helps detect many of the problems caused by aging. Early detection of a disease allows our doctor to manage any changes with medications or diet changes.
Urinalysis
To detect bladder infections, diabetes, bladder stones, kidney disease, etc.
