One of our most important functions as a full service veterinary
clinic is to conduct periodic wellness exams. We suggest that you
bring healthy pets in at least once a year for an exam. Sick pets and
pets with chronic disorders should be seen at more regular intervals
according to the condition.
We call our exams "tail to nose" because every time your pet
visits it will be completely checked over. Even if you are bringing
your pet in for a dental visit, we will be checking the whole animal.
Over the course of your pet's wellness visits we monitor changes in
your pets weight. Rapid increases or decreases in weight may be a sign
of illness or dietary imbalance. Any significant change in the weight
or appearance of your pet should be brought to the attention of your
veterinarian. Eyes, nose, skeletal, and coat condition exams will
also be performed during wellness visits. After each examination we
meet with owners to discuss the health of the animal and point out
possible health problems and treatment options.
