Wellness, or preventative, care for your pet means they live longer, healthier lives. Regular exams and health screenings allow your veterinary team to identify potential issues before they become larger problems.

If you’ve recently adopted or purchased a pet, we encourage you to book an appointment for their first examination as soon as possible. Younger animals are especially vulnerable to illness, and a wellness plan allows us to make sure they have the vaccinations they need, reassure you of their health, and give us a starting point for their medical records.

Why are Essential Wellness Plans good for most pets?
 We crafted our Essential Wellness Plans based on the latest preventative medical recommendations for dogs and cats of all ages. The customization of the plan lets you work with your veterinarian to create a care guide to that best serves your pet’s unique needs. Essential Wellness Plans allow you to comply with veterinary recommendations without the need to pay up front in one lump sum.

Red leaves cover the ground, creating a vibrant and warm atmosphere.

The truth is that pets age much faster than we do, and they tend to hide symptoms of illness and injury as a matter of instinct. You, along with our veterinary care team, have to be their advocates to identify any concerns that your pet cannot tell you about, before they become problems. With our Essential Wellness Plans we encourage you to be proactive with us. Does my pet need to come to the vet if they aren't sick?

We recommend yearly dental cleaning, in most healthy adult pets, to prevent serious dental disease. During a routine dental procedure, full mouth xrays are obtained, along with a deep cleaning, beneath the gums as well, so that the veterinarian can identify potential problems. Unfortunately, many pet parents don’t pay attention to realize trouble is brewing in their pet’s mouth until symptoms are present. These symptoms can range from they’re forced to do so by terrible breath and mild drooling to more serious issues such as swelling on the face. At that point Once symptoms are noticeable there is a potential that more invasive procedures will be needed to correct the issue, such as extractions or oral surgery. Just like humans, if the periodontal disease is very advanced, bacteria may have already can spread to internal organs, causing serious illness and perhaps even shortening the life of your pet.
