What Happens During a Pet Wellness Exam
Every visit begins with getting to know you and your pet. Our team takes the time to review your pet’s health history, lifestyle, and any recent changes in behavior or habits. Then, your Wilton Manors veterinarian performs a nose-to-tail physical examination, checking key areas such as:
- Ears, eyes, and mouth for signs of infection, dental disease, or irritation
- Skin and coat for dryness, lumps, or external parasites
- Heart and lungs using a stethoscope to monitor for irregularities
- Joints and muscles to identify signs of discomfort or limited mobility
- Weight and body condition to ensure your pet maintains a healthy balance
If needed, we may recommend bloodwork, urinalysis, or imaging to assess internal health and detect early signs of disease. These diagnostics help us create a clear, individualized care plan for your pet.
Microchipping
We also offer pet microchipping during wellness visits. While your pet can receive a microchip at any time, administering it during a wellness visit is a simple addition to their vaccinations. In many cases, pets who become lost end up being taken to shelters, rescues, or other animal hospitals. If your pet does not have updated ID tags on their collar (and they should), the first thing staff members will do is try to scan for a pet microchip. So, let’s help reunite you with your four-legged friend much faster if they ever go missing by administering a microchip.
The Importance of Regular Wellness Exams
Just like people, pets benefit from routine check-ups to stay ahead of potential health problems. Puppies, kittens, and senior pets often need more frequent visits, while most healthy adult pets should have an exam at least once a year.
Regular wellness exams allow us to:
Catch issues such as dental disease, arthritis, or thyroid imbalance before they progress
Update vaccinations and parasite prevention based on your pet’s environment and risk level
Monitor ongoing health conditions or changes in weight and behavior
Strengthen the bond between you, your pet, and our veterinary team
By making wellness care a consistent part of your pet’s routine, you’re giving them the best chance at a long, vibrant life by your side.
