What's Included in a Wellness Exam
A wellness exam is a comprehensive evaluation of your pet's overall health. During the visit, your veterinarian will perform a full nose-to-tail examination and discuss recommendations tailored to your pet's age, lifestyle, and medical history.
Your pet's wellness exam may include:
A complete physical examination
Vaccination recommendations based on national veterinary guidelines and your pet's individual risk factors
Parasite prevention guidance, including heartworm, flea, and tick protection
Fecal testing and routine screening for parasites
Preventive bloodwork to monitor organ health and establish baseline values
Dental health evaluation
Nutrition, behavior, and lifestyle discussions
These visits also give you time to talk through any changes you've noticed at home, helping our team provide personalized recommendations for your pet's care.
Wellness Care for Every Life Stage (and Species)
Every pet is different, and their healthcare needs change over time. Wellness exams allow us to adjust care based on your pet's age, lifestyle, and species so they can stay healthy through every stage of life.
A Healthier Future Starts with Preventive Care
Wellness exams help protect the moments you share with your pet, from energetic walks to quiet evenings at home. By identifying concerns early and supporting healthy habits, preventive care plays a key role in helping pets live longer, more comfortable lives.
