Screenings
Report
Firstly, our pets can't speak, they cannot tell us if they feel off color or unwell or have any other indicators of internal illness.
We need to examine them at least every 12 months, and more often as they age, as well as run some routine screening tests to detect underlying disease BEFORE it is clinically apparent.
Use the age chart below to find your pets age in "people" years and the screening testing recommended for each stage of his or her life.
We believe the following tests give us the best chance of helping your pet's live longer, healthier lives.
