We know what an important part of your family your pet has become over the years, so let's keep your friend as healthy as possible.
AGE IS NOT A DISEASE
While age itself is not a disease, it brings with it the wear that time produces. At 8 years of age, most cats and dogs are passing into middle age: equivalent to our 45 years. At this time of their lives, just as we do, they benefit from a more extensive examination of the internal state of their bodies.
EARLY DETECTION IS THE KEY
During the last twenty years, through new vaccines, better nutrition and improved dental and medical care, the veterinary profession has extended the life span of the average pet by 25%. Early detection of changes in your pet's body will allow us to make adjustments in the medical and nutritional care of your pet to correct or delay disease.
EARLY DETECTION FOR:
ANEMIA
CANCER
HEART DISEASE
LIVER DISEASE
PROTEIN IMBALANCE
KIDNEY DISEASE
DIABETES
BLOOD DYSCRASIAS
THYROID DISEASE
GLAUCOMA
We recommend that your pet be given a thorough senior physical exam which will include chest radiographs, an ECG (electrocardiogram), a blood test for a chemistry panel, complete blood count, thyroid test , tonometric exam for glaucoma, urinalysis, and fecal exam for parasites. When your pet comes to HVH for a senior care visit, you will receive a 20% discount on the Senior Care package price. Charges for routine services done the same day will receive the 20% discount.**
We would like to schedule a morning appointment for you and your pet to see the doctor and discuss any problems. You will then leave your pet with us for a few hours, so that we may perform the tests listed above. The doctor will call you when all results are final (2-5 days) to discuss your pet's health.
Please call to schedule your pet's senior work-up today.
**Note: prices subject to change.
