Pet Exams Champaign, IL
Your pet should not simply visit the veterinarian when he or she is sick. Routine examinations help to prevent your pet from becoming ill in the future and to discover potential health issues early. HomeVet can make this easier for you by providing mobile visits for your pet’s yearly exam.
WHAT TO EXPECT DURING AN EXAM
Our veterinarian will give your pet a thorough physical examination during his or her wellness test. We’ll weigh your pet to make sure they’re at a healthy weight based on breed and age averages. The doctor will examine your pet’s walking pattern to rule out any musculoskeletal problems. In addition, our veterinarian will listen to your pet’s heart and lungs for abnormalities like breathing problems and cardiac murmurs. The veterinarian will examine your pet’s skin, teeth, and gums for symptoms of inflammation or pain.
Vaccinations or other preventatives may be given to your pet to keep them safe from serious infections that can lead to difficulties later.
Fecal testing, urinalysis, or blood work may be recommended by the veterinarian.
This is also an excellent time to discuss any issues your pet is having or to get answers to any questions you might have regarding his or her health and well-being.
Fee: $60
Additional fees can be discussed individually for each visit or pet.
IMPORTANCE OF ROUTINE VET CARE
Routine vet visits are essential for assessing your pet’s current health conditions. Not all health problems are obvious and have obvious symptoms. As a result, a major health problem may go undiscovered until it has developed to the point where it requires medical attention, maybe including emergency veterinarian care. A screening can uncover a disease when it is still treatable and preventable complications.
