By embracing a thorough approach to preventive care, which encompasses more than just yearly exams and vaccinations, pets and their families can experience longer and healthier lives. This is a collective duty of our entire veterinary urgent care team who is involved in providing comprehensive and patient-focused care, and it is a crucial aspect of every interaction we have with you, the pet owner.
It’s important for your pet to visit an urgent care veterinarian for routine physical exams and vaccines to maintain their well-being and happiness. The number of visits required varies based on several factors, such as breed, age, lifestyle, and any existing health issues. For instance, puppies should be seen once a month, while a healthy adult dog may only need an annual check-up.
