Wellness Exams
Exams are recommended annually. Our veterinarians will perform a hands-on examination assessing eyes, ears, mouth/teeth, lymph nodes, heart, lungs, abdominal organs, joints, and skin. The examination, along with a thorough history provided by you, will provide information allowing us to develop a health plan specific to your pet.
For dogs; we offer vaccinations against Distemper, Parvovirus, BORDETELLA (kennel cough), Rabies, and Lyme disease.
For cats, we offer vaccinations against Leukemia virus, Rhinotracheitis, Panleukopenia, Calici Virus, and Rabies.

In-house testing includes, but not limited to:
blood analysis (CBC, chemistries, pancreatic and thyroid), urinalysis,fecal testing,4DX (Lyme, Heartworm, Anaplasmosis, Erhlichia canis), ear/skin cytology, mass/ lump cytology

Dentistry
Dental disease is a very common finding in our pet population.
Your pet’s teeth are assessed at their annual appointments. Signs of dental disease include: bad breath, tartar, gum inflammation, loose teeth, difficulties chewing, drooling, nasal discharge, and missing or broken teeth.
Recommendations will be made based on the degree of dental disease noted on exam.
Like us, pets will require routine dental cleanings throughout their lives. We brush our teeth at least two times per day, and still require scaling of our teeth once to twice annually. Luckily if disease is detected early it may be reversed; however, if disease is left untreated, neglected teeth can turn into serious and costly problems.
