Your children go to the pediatrician on a regular basis. You see your dentist twice a year. Your furry family members should have great preventive medical care just like everyone else. From the first time your puppy or kitten comes into your home, you should be planning its scheduled pet wellness exams in Phoenix. Kittens and puppies should have their first visit to our Phoenix animal hospital by the time they're eight weeks old, but that first visit will be more of an assessment of the animal's health and a way for you and our veterinarian to plan your pet's healthy future.

Wellness Exams at North Central Animal Hospital

Beginning with the first visit, your pet's wellness exam will cover every part of its health, both inside and out. We'll begin by weighing and measuring your pet, making sure it's a healthy size for its age. We'll discuss your pet's daily behavior with you before moving on to a thorough physical examination. If you've been having concerns about your pet's behavior, this will be the time to discuss it with one of our veterinarians.

Dogs and cats need vaccinations throughout their lifetime to prevent them from contracting dangerous diseases. Beginning in their first few months, your pet will receive a series of vaccinations, spread out over the months in its first year. Adult dogs also need to be vaccinated annually, both for a series of basic vaccines and for other preventive medications it may need depending on its lifestyle.
