Annual Health Screens
For example, if you own a cocker spaniel, you have no doubt at some time dealt with an ear problem. Our physical examination will help alert you to potential problems, which may occur. The physical exam, however, does not allow us to determine the overall health of the internal organs. Only a blood screen will do that. This short procedure will detect any liver and kidney problems as well as check for anemia, diabetes, and infections. We recommend this screening for all pets 2 to 7 years of age. If your pet is 7 years or older, ask about our senior care program. As in all health evaluations, early detection is the key as it allows for more and better treatment options. If you have any questions, please feel free to call. |
As part of your pet's
annual vaccination program, we will give your pet a thorough
physical exam. This procedure allows us to determine the overall
physical health of your pet. It also allows us to examine your pet
closely for problems that may be considered breed specific. This
simply means that certain breeds of dogs and cats are pre-disposed
to certain problems.
