Wellness
Exams
An annual wellness examination
is very important to evaluate
your pet’s overall health and to detect problems before
they turn into serious illnesses. Because your pet can’t
tell you in word how he is feeling, therefore a thorough
physical examination and your observations of your pet is
necessary. Based on the results of the examination, further
diagnostic tests, such as blood tests, radiographs (x-rays)
and ECG may be recommended. Cats and dogs should visit the
veterinarian for their wellness examination once a year
and every six months when they reach their senior years. |

Vaccination
(Immunization)
Immunizing your pet against disease is one of the best
tool of preventive medicine. Vaccination is an inexpensive
protection rather than costly treatment. Vaccinations
depend upon region, pet’s age, life style and their
health conditions. At the present time available vaccines
are as follows;
DOGS: distemper,
adenovirus, leptospirosis, parvo, corona, bordetella,
lyme and rabies.
CATS: panleukopenia (distemper), herpesvirus,
calici, chlamydia, feline leukemia & FIP.

Dental
Care
Professional teeth cleaning on regular basis can
extend the life span of your pet’s life. By the age
of three, some 80 percent of all dogs and 70 percent of
all cats show some sign of dental disease, which can lead
to the more serious problems of heart, lung, and kidney.
Periodontal disease, an infection of the tissue surrounding
the teeth takes hold in progressive stages. |

Weight
Control
We provide weight control protocol to our patients. According
to recent studies, 30 to 40 percent of all pets in the US
are overweight, making obesity one of the most common disease
afflicting dogs and cats today. Too much weight can cause
some of the same problems in pets as it does in people,
including respiratory problem, diabetes, arthritis, heart
disease, increased likelihood of tearing ligaments and wearing
down joint. |

Geriatric
Care
We provide geriatric care to your pets. Geriatric are, which
starts with a physical exam, is needed to catch and delay

a pet’s life also provides your veterinarian with
a benchmark against which to measure future test results. |
