Thriving Through Adulthood

This essential yearly visit is our best tool for proactive health. It allows our doctors to create a complete picture of your pet’s wellbeing and catch potential issues before they become serious.

• Comprehensive physical exam: From nose-to-tail, we check for early signs of disease, obesity, or skin conditions.

• Lifestyle Discussion: We'll talk about any changes in behavior, diet, or activity you've noticed at home.

• Proactive Bloodwork: Routine screening helps us find underlying issues that aren't visible on an exam.

Periodontal disease is the most common health issue in adult pets. Maintaining oral health requires a partnership of both at-home care and routine professional cleanings.

• At-Home Care Guidance: Our veterinarians will guide you on improving dental hygiene through brushing, dental diets, and supplements.

• Professional Cleanings: For many pets, we recommend cleanings under anesthesia for thorough care, including comprehensive oral exams and full-mouth dental X-rays.

• Anesthesia Safety is Our Priority: A dedicated team member continuously monitors vital signs (blood pressure, oxygen, ECG, and more) during any procedure.

Maintaining your pet's immunity and keeping them free from pests are simple ways to ensure their long-term health and your peace of mind.

• Tailored Booster Vaccines: Following AAHA guidelines, we'll recommend appropriate boosters, including core vaccines like leptospirosis for dogs.

• Feline-Specific Plans: We provide FeLV/FIV testing and recommend appropriate FeLV vaccination for at-risk cats.

• Year-Round Parasite Prevention: We'll ensure your pet's prevention plan is current for fleas, ticks, and heartworm.

For many breeds, proactive screening for inherited conditions is one of the most important steps we can take to ensure a long, comfortable, and active life for your pet. Many orthopedic and genetic issues don't show obvious signs until later in life, but catching them early allows for better management and a much better long-term outcome.

• Joint & Orthopedic Health: We offer OFA-certified hip and elbow X-rays to screen for common conditions like hip and elbow dysplasia, which can lead to painful arthritis if left unmanaged. Early detection is key, as it can open up more effective treatment options and help us create a plan to maintain your pet's mobility for years to come.

• Breed-Specific Genetic Conditions: We provide guidance on screening for other common inheritable conditions based on your pet's breed. This includes eye diseases (like PRA), heart conditions (like HCM in cats or DCM in dogs), and neurological disorders (like Degenerative Myelopathy in at-risk breeds). Understanding your pet's genetic predispositions allows us to tailor a truly proactive wellness plan.

Our veterinarians are experienced in managing a wide range of chronic conditions, providing consistent and compassionate support to improve your pet's quality of life.

• Proactive Screening: We actively screen for common endocrine disorders such as diabetes, Cushing’s disease, hypothyroidism in dogs, and hyperthyroidism in cats.

• Comprehensive Management: We create tailored diagnostic and treatment plans to effectively manage other chronic conditions including epilepsy, skin allergies, IBD, feline asthma, heart disease and more.

When your pet is suddenly ill, you need answers quickly. We are equipped to provide timely evaluation and care when the unexpected happens.

• Timely Appointments: We offer same-day and next-day appointments for urgent cases.

• In-House Diagnostics: Our clinic has blood analyzers, X-rays, and eye/urine testing for fast results.

• Lab Partnerships: We partner with Zoetis for fast turnaround on more advanced diagnostics.
