All patients who come to ABC Veterinary Clinic of Lewisville for pet wellness care in Lewisville receive a comprehensive snout-to-tail examination. This exam doesn’t take long, but it allows us to gather substantial information about your pet and their overall condition. Having your pet examined regularly also enables us to detect problems early and begin treatment immediately. Early detection and treatment typically lead to a better prognosis and can save you a lot of money in the long run.
If you have a young, healthy pet, we recommend bringing them in for annual exams. If, however, you have a pet that is older or not in excellent health, we may recommend bringing them in for an appointment every six months or so instead of waiting an entire year.
Our annual exams also include blood work to check on liver and kidney functioning. Pet blood work helps in the early detection of diseases like diabetes, hypothyroidism, Cushing’s disease, kidney problems, and other liver disorders. Our veterinarians might recommend additional diagnostics if needed.
If you are coming to us for a sick pet exam, our veterinarians will thoroughly examine your companion. We can also provide diagnostic testing such as blood work, pet X-rays, or pet ultrasound to quickly diagnose your sick pet and start treatment right away.
