Pets age much faster than humans, meaning significant internal health changes can happen in just a matter of months. A routine head-to-tail wellness assessment once a year—and twice a year for senior companions—is the most effective way to practice preventative medicine.
Bringing your companion in for preventative checks helps our medical team establish a vital health baseline. This makes it exponentially easier to spot subtle, early indicators of disease, joint discomfort, or metabolic shifts before they escalate into painful, costly medical emergencies.
What Happens During a Head-to-Tail Pet Exam?
When you walk through our doors, Dr. Christine Cassidy, Dr. Jennifer Stenger, and our experienced veterinary team perform a meticulous physical examination tailored completely to your pet’s specific breed, age, lifestyle, and medical history.
During a standard wellness visit, we thoroughly evaluate:
- Vitals & Weight Tracking: Monitoring weight trends to prevent obesity or catch sudden, unexplained weight drops early.
- Ophthalmic & Otic Screening: Checking the eyes and ears for signs of cataracts, infection, inflammation, or mites.
- Dental & Oral Assessment: Evaluating the teeth and gums for periodontal disease, tartar buildup, or oral pain.
- Cardiopulmonary Auscultation: Using specialized diagnostics to listen to the heart and lungs, screening for murmurs, irregular rhythms, or congestion.
- Abdominal Palpation: Checking internal organs for unusual swelling, sensitivity, or masses.
- Musculoskeletal Exam: Evaluating your pet’s joints, spine, and muscle mass to look for signs of early arthritis, stiffness, or mobility loss.
- Skin & Coat Inspection: Screening for fleas, ticks, lumps, skin allergies, or poor coat quality.
Personalized Preventive Care Plans
A pet wellness exam isn’t just a physical checkup; it is an open conversation between you and your veterinarian. We take the time to discuss your pet’s daily environment, nutritional needs, exercise routines, and behavioral shifts.
From there, we co-create a personalized preventative plan that can include customized lifestyle vaccinations, routine parasite prevention, baseline diagnostic screening, and strategic lifestyle advice to maximize their vitality.
