What is included in my pet's first exam?

Your pet’s first exam is a chance to get to know them better, with a complete physical exam that includes listening to their heart and lungs, updating vaccinations, and chatting about their overall health. We’ll also discuss their diet, behavior, and any concerns you might have. It’s a perfect time to build a bond with your pet’s vet and help ensure your furry friend starts life healthy and happy.

What kinds of veterinary services do you offer?

We offer a variety of veterinary services to keep your pet healthy and happy, including regular wellness exams, vaccines, dental care, diagnostic tests, surgeries, and emergency treatments. Additionally, we provide specialized care, including ultrasounds, pain management, and care tailored to older pets. No matter what your pet needs, our caring team is dedicated to providing heartfelt and thorough care.

Can I schedule an appointment with a specific vet?

Yes, we understand how important it is for your pet to see a specific veterinarian. When making an appointment, just let us know your preference, and we’ll do our best to accommodate. If your chosen vet isn’t available, rest assured that another skilled member of our team will provide your pet with high-quality care.

What can I expect during my pet’s first visit?

During your pet’s first visit, we’ll gently examine them and learn more about their health history. If needed, we’ll update vaccinations and talk about nutrition, behavior, and ways to prevent health issues. You’ll have plenty of time to ask questions, and we’ll ensure you feel at ease with our care plan as we move forward.

Do you offer spays/neuters?

Yes, we offer spay and neuter surgeries as part of our comprehensive, caring services. Our experienced surgical team takes every precaution to keep your pet safe and comfortable throughout the procedure. We'll give you clear aftercare instructions to ensure a smooth recovery. Spaying or neutering your pet is a loving step towards their health and helps prevent unwanted litters.

Do you provide travel certificates?

We understand how important it is for your pet to meet travel requirements. That’s why we’ve partnered with Pawsitive Pet Health Certificates (PPHC), a team specializing in guiding pet owners and veterinarians through the often-complicated travel process. We provide travel certificates confirming that your pet is up to date on vaccinations and has received a health check. After their examination, we offer USDA-accredited pet health certificate services so your pet can travel safely and with confidence. Our team is here to ensure the process is smooth and stress-free for both you and your pet.
