Preventive Care
Preventive care is more than a yearly checkup; it’s an opportunity to equip your pet for a lifetime of health and protection against harmful diseases. At Pet Medical Services, our proactive commitment to your pet’s health is reflected in our passion for preventive care.
What’s included in preventive care?
Preventive care encompasses many services geared toward promoting health, preventing disease, and detecting hidden health issues sooner. It includes:
- Annual or semiannual physical exams
- Core and lifestyle-based vaccinations
- Heartworm and intestinal parasite screening
- Year-round parasite prevention
- Blood work and age-specific testing
- Dental health assessment
- Nutritional guidance
- Behavior and lifestyle discussions
Preventive care benefits for pets
Staying up-to-date on your pet’s preventive care provides countless benefits, including:
- Early detection of subtle illnesses, injuries, or behavior concerns — Catch problems before they become serious, harmful, or costly
- Protection against preventable diseases — Vaccines and parasite prevention reduce your pet’s risk of illness and can also protect your family from zoonotic diseases, which can be transmitted from animals to humans
- Support for healthy aging — Regular preventive care helps our veterinarians monitor your senior pet’s changing health
- Preparation for boarding, travel, or grooming — Up-to-date vaccines and exam records help you avoid last-minute stress
