Examinations

CHECK-UP

     Routine exams are one of the most important ways to keep your pet healthy and happy. Even if your pet seems healthy to you, a veterinarian may notice subtle changes in your pet’s physical exam from year to year that could point to a medical concern. 

EXAM PROCEDURES INCLUDE:

• Listening to the heart and lungs checking for heart murmurs or congestion

• Feeling  the abdomen to make sure vital organs are the proper size 

• Checking the joints for signs of arthritis

• Checking the skin and hair coat for wounds, growths, skin infections, hair loss,  or external parasites.
