Preventative Medicine & Wellness Exams are Very Important
Your pet may not be showing outwardly signs that they are sick. From a routine yearly exam, a veterinarian can provide valuable information about the health of your pet.
For example, something not obvious to the visible eye, such as an irregular heartbeat, could alert the veterinarian to diagnose your pet with hyperthyroidism. Early detection and management of this disease can avoid some serious heart and blood pressure complications in the future, thereby potentially extending their lifespan.
Disease prevention is always less costly than dealing with the treatment of a disease once your pet has developed it. For instance, if your pet develops parvovirus, the treatment frequently costs over a $1,000, whereas a single parvovirus vaccine which could prevent the disease will usually cost less than $50.
At Prospect Heights Animal Hospital, we strongly recommend yearly wellness exams to ensure a long, healthy life for your pet.
