Wellness and Preventive Care
Preventive care is vital to your pet’s health and happiness. It can help your pet avoid preventable illnesses that cause pain and suffering—and cost a small fortune to treat. The more furry family members we can help before illnesses occur, the better.
When your pet visits us for these annual or biannual appointments, we can:
- Conduct nose-to-tail physical exams
- Make lifestyle and diet recommendations
- Ensure that your pet is caught up on vaccines
- Prescribe flea, tick, and heartworm preventives
- Screen for parasites, ticks, and fleas
- Do bloodwork to spot potential health conditions
- Test your pet for allergies
- Examine the teeth and gums to determine if your pet needs further dental care
If we catch any worrisome health conditions during a wellness appointment, we can build a treatment and pain management plan for your pet.
And at Northside Paws Veterinary Care, our wellness care is customized to your pet’s needs. We take your dog or cat’s lifestyle, age, background, and overall health into account before we make any recommendations.
Has it been a while?
Been a while since your furry family member’s last preventive care appointment? Give us a call to book a visit. Things change quickly as your pet ages, so it’s important to keep up-to-date on preventive care visits. We look forward to spending time getting to know you and your pet!
