Wellness Exams
We value your pet’s health. Addressing health concerns before they become serious health risks is the basis behind wellness exams. Many conditions that may occur during the normal aging process can be diagnosed early through physical examinations and routine laboratory testing. We recommend young cats be seen at least one time per year and older cats be seen at least every six months.

It can be used as a primary form of therapy or as a beneficial adjunct to western medicine.
