Wellness, or preventative, care for your pet means they live longer, healthier lives. Regular exams and health screenings allow your veterinary team to identify potential issues before they become larger problems.

If you’ve recently adopted or purchased a pet, we encourage you to book an appointment for their first examination as soon as possible. Younger animals are especially vulnerable to illness, and a wellness plan allows us to make sure they have the vaccinations they need, reassure you of their health, and give us a starting point for their medical records. Why wellness? A scattered pattern of green heart shapes adorns the black background, reminiscent of a veterinarian's compassion symbolized in every heart they touch.

“Wellness care is the key to preventing disease and getting to spend more time with our pets.”

Why are Essential Wellness Plans good for most pets?
 We crafted our Essential Wellness Plans based on the latest preventative medical recommendations for dogs and cats of all ages. The customization of the plan lets you work with your veterinarian to create a care guide to that best serves your pet’s unique needs. Essential Wellness Plans allow you to comply with veterinary recommendations without the need to pay up front in one lump sum.

As a veterinarian, she treasures these colorful moments, surrounded by vibrant red leaves scattered on the ground and trees in the background.

The truth is that pets age much faster than we do, and they tend to hide symptoms of illness and injury as a matter of instinct. You, along with our veterinary care team, have to be their advocates to identify any concerns that your pet cannot tell you about, before they become problems. With our Essential Wellness Plans we encourage you to be proactive with us. Does my pet need to come to the vet if they aren't sick?
