Exam Rooms
|
We have four exams rooms where your pet's specific problems can be diagnosed and discussed. In addition to physical exams, this area is also used for minor treatments, boarding and grooming check-ins and giving medication. |
One of our dedicated exam room technicians will obtain your pet's weight and medical history. If a laboratory sample is needed for your pet's appointment, like a blood, urine or stool sample, it will be collected at that time by our technician. The doctor will then join the technician to perform a complete physical examination and talk with you about their findings and recommendations. If any prescriptions are necessary, they will be prepared at our pharmacy and you can be shown how to medicate your animal. You and your pet will then be escorted to the discharge area to complete paperwork.
