Questions
How often should my pet have an exam?
Annual exams are recommended for most pets, with senior pets needing bi-annual checkups. Puppies and kittens require more frequent visits during their first year.

Dental cleanings are performed under anesthesia for thorough plaque removal. Pre-anesthetic blood tests ensure safety, followed by tartar removal and oral health assessment.
