Wellness Care

Prioritize a Wellness Plan

Your pet’s health and happiness are closely connected, and at the Veterinary Medical Center of St. Lucie County, we believe they deserve nothing less than the best of both.

Our comprehensive pet wellness plans are designed to keep your furry companions in optimal condition throughout their lives. We’re dedicated to thoroughly understanding your pet’s unique health needs and working with you to ensure they receive the best possible care. By partnering with you, we aim to help you become the best pet parent you can be, so your pet can thrive year after year.

What to Expect at Your Visit

Maintaining your pet’s well-being involves staying attentive to their needs and consistently following up on their annual exams. These yearly visits are crucial because dogs and cats age more rapidly than humans, meaning their health can change quickly. By establishing a health baseline during these exams, we can more easily detect any changes as they occur.

During your pet’s checkup, we will:

• Perform a thorough examination from head to tail, including checking their heart rate, breathing, and temperature.
• Collect blood and fecal samples to screen for parasites, infections, and other potential health issues.
• Administer vaccinations based on your pet’s specific needs and lifestyle.
• Provide recommendations to address any concerns that arise during the visit.
• Discuss your pet’s behavior, diet, bathroom habits, and overall daily routine with you.
• Offer parasite preventatives if your pet isn’t already on them.
