Importance of Pet Wellness Exams | PetVet Animal Hospital
Your pet can’t tell you when something feels off. That’s why regular wellness exams are crucial—they help detect health issues early, often before symptoms appear. At PetVet Animal Hospital in Fishers, we treat wellness exams as a vital part of preventive care, helping your pets live longer, healthier lives.
What’s Included in a Pet Wellness Exam?
During your pet’s visit, we take a full-body approach:
- Weight and body condition evaluation
- Eye, ear, and dental check
- Heart and respiratory assessment
- Abdominal and lymph node palpation
- Skin and coat inspection
- Vaccination review and updates
- Blood work and fecal testing (as needed)
Why Annual (or Semi-Annual) Exams Matter
Pets age faster than humans, so yearly exams are like a check-up every 5-7 human years. These exams help us:
- Catch health problems early
- Monitor weight and diet
- Prevent parasites and infections
- Update vaccinations to prevent disease
- Offer guidance on behavior or lifestyle changes
A Personalized Approach at PetVet
We understand every pet is unique. That’s why we tailor each visit to your pet’s needs, lifestyle, and age. Whether you have a rambunctious puppy or a chill senior cat, our wellness exams adapt to your pet’s life stage.
