Why does my pet need an annual preventive visit?
 
The purpose of annual preventive visits is to discuss your pet’s medical history and prevent health problems before they become sick. During these annual preventive visits we complete a yearly physical exam, discuss lifestyle needs, update vaccines, complete parasite screening, complete lab screening, update heartworm/flea/tick prevention prescriptions, and update any lifelong medication prescriptions.  
 
For visits to be considered an annual preventive visit sit, your pet must be asymptomatic: this means that they do not have symptoms of a condition or disease.  Monitoring of conditions your pet already has is not considered preventive screening this includes adjusting medications and laboratory monitoring of chronic medical conditions or evaluating a new condition.  If your pet has a current annual preventive visit, we are able to offer telemedicine/telehealth visits for many conditions for your convenience.
