Your Pet’s Journey: What to Expect from Our Care

We believe you should expect high-quality care for your furry family member(s) as well as excellent service. Our goal has always been to assemble a veterinary healthcare team committed to providing exceptional client service and veterinary healthcare to our patients. We will continue to follow through with this commitment.

Your pet’s annual check-up will include a physical exam with a thorough investigation of your pet’s head, body, and tail. Even the most cooperative pet may not readily go along with at-home tooth and gum brushing, an annual cleaning by your veterinarian may be suggested at the time of their annual exam. Like you, your pet can lose his teeth due to decay and neglect.

It’s a good idea to keep an accurate medical diary not only of the procedures and vaccinations your pet receives at the vet but also of notes on things like your pet’s elimination habits and any physical changes or unusual occurrences. Keep track of small shifts in your pet’s behavior, including urinary marking habits and mood swings, along with diet, routine modifications, and any medications/supplements he/she may be taking. Take this notebook when you visit the vet. These seemingly unrelated occurrences may help explain the results of your pet’s medical tests.

The veterinarian may refer you to a specialist, a veterinarian who has completed advanced studies in specialties such as internal medicine, surgery, and emergency care if your pet must undergo a procedure that requires more precise knowledge and experience.
