Wellness Exams
No need to worry. We have you covered.
Pet health begins with preventive healthcare. Southwoods Animal Hospital recommends annual wellness examinations for young to early middle aged pets. Semi-annual veterinary exams are recommended on senior dogs and cats over 8 years of age. Semi-annual exams ensure that your pet’s health is always professionally monitored.
Twice a year exams are needed to diagnose harmful diseases early as pets age much more rapidly than humans. The earlier it’s caught, the more successful treatment is, keeping your pet healthy and happy. Annual and semi-annual Wellness exams are the most important aspect of pet health.
