Wellness Care
We recommend that all pets be seen at least annually by one of our veterinarians. For pets over the age of 12 we recommend that they be seen twice yearly.
Our wellness evaluations allow us to thoroughly examine your pet's teeth, eyes, ears, heart, lymph nodes, skin and musculoskeletal system. During these evaluations, we may find ear infections, cataracts, arthritis, skin tumors, allergies, dental disease and many other conditions that may need to be addressed for the health of your pet. |

Senior Panels and Wellness Panels
Panels are basically blood tests which help us to complete a thorough evaluation of your pet. Our physical examination tells us a lot, but it doesn't indicate how the internal organs are functioning. By completing blood tests we are able to check for diabetes, thyroid disease, kidney disease, liver disease, pancreatic and adrenal problems, infections, anemia and a host of other conditions. Detected early, we may be able to reverse some of these conditions or at least slow down how fast they progress.
Vaccinations
We realize that not all pets have the same risk factors. Some are strictly indoors, some spend time outside, some are boarded or groomed frequently, others are not. Therefore, the vets at Countryside will tailor a vaccination protocol which suits the lifestyle of your pet. For those uncomfortable with vaccinations, we offer titer checks: blood tests which can help assess a pet's immune response to certain core vaccines.
