Importance of Annual Diagnostic and Wellness Checkups

Bringing your pet in for an annual diagnostic and wellness checkup can help reassure you that your dog or cat is healthy or help us detect hidden diseases or conditions early. Early detection improves prognosis, reduces medical costs, and helps your pet live a longer, healthier life. Many pets are adept at hiding signs of illness, so subtle changes in health or behavior may be easy to overlook. Additionally, some pets may not show symptoms depending on the disease.

Dogs and cats age far more quickly than humans, making regular exams essential. As pets age, risks for conditions such as arthritis, cancer, diabetes, heart disease, hormone disorders, and kidney and liver problems all increase. During your pet’s wellness exam, we will perform a comprehensive physical assessment, checking your pet from nose to tail. Vaccinations, preventives, and a diagnostic workup—including blood, fecal, and urine tests—may be recommended to identify any underlying issues. Additionally, senior pets may benefit from a baseline exam and regular checkups to monitor changes over time.
