A Lifetime By Your Side

Starts with preventative medicine.

Prevention Is Key An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. At least, that is the case where your pet’s health is concerned. Routine preventive care is essential to keep your pet healthy from puppy- or kitten-hood, to their gray muzzle years. 

You and your pet are like family, and we want to do everything we can to protect the special bond you share. Preventive care focuses on preventing infectious and parasite-transmitted diseases, as well as screening for diseases, so they can be diagnosed earlier, when treatment is more effective. An annual wellness exam mixed with a proactive preventive care plan can keep your best friend in tip-top health throughout their entire life, and possibly add years to their lifespan. 

Preventive Care Benefits

Many canine and feline diseases are preventable with routine vaccinations and parasite control.  By preventing disease, your pet will enjoy their best life possible, and you will avoid the stress, and possible heartbreak, of your beloved companion developing a preventable disease.

Since not all diseases can be prevented, preventive care also includes routine disease screening. By detecting disease early, you are taking a proactive approach to prevent your pet from diseases including organ damage and deterioration. Many diseases can be cured before your pet becomes sick, and others can be managed to ensure your pet lives a happy, active life.

Preventive Care Visits

Puppies and kittens require frequent preventive care visits during their first, most susceptible months to ensure they stay healthy and develop a strong immune system. As an adult, your pet should receive annual preventive care, including vaccines, parasite prevention, disease screening, and a professional dental cleaning. When your pet reaches their senior years, they should be seen every six months, or more frequently, to closely monitor their health and screen for hidden disease before they progress.
