Why choose us for annual pet checks?
A yearly check gives our vets the chance to spot early warning signs, update vaccinations, and give you personalised advice on everything from nutrition to behaviour. It's also the perfect time to ask those questions you've been meaning to raise.
Think of it as an annual reset for your pet's health and your own peace of mind.
Most health conditions in dogs and cats are far easier and less costly to treat when caught early. Regular check-ups mean our vets get to know what's normal for your pet, so anything unusual stands out straight away. You leave knowing your dog or cat is in great shape, or with a clear plan if they're not.

Frequently Asked Question
Does my pet need to come in annually for a wellness visit?
Yes, it is recommended that your pet have an annual wellness visit with their veterinarian. This visit includes a general health assessment and may or may not include parasite testing, vaccinations, and other tests depending on the age and breed of your pet.
What happens during an annual wellness exam?
During an annual wellness exam, your veterinarian will perform a physical examination of your pet which may include checking their temperature, heart rate, breathing rate, eyesight and hearing. They will also check for any signs of parasites or infection. Additionally, they may recommend blood work or other diagnostic tests to ensure your pet's overall health.
How often should I take my cat/dog to the vet?
We recommend to bring in your dog or cat to have a complete physical check-up at least once per year. This “wellness exam” helps to determine your dog's current health and treat any problems that may occur.
Why should I bring my perfectly healthy pet to the vet?
Even if your pet appears perfectly healthy, it is still important to bring them in for an annual check-up. These routine medical exams help to detect any underlying issues that you may not be aware of as well as provide an opportunity for you to ask questions and express any concerns you have about your pup.
