Geriatric Care
Your pet's golden years require special care, and your veterinarian will recommend certain screenings. These tests enable your doctors to provide early diagnoses for common diseases affecting older pets so they can be managed more effectively. Our doctors recommend twice-yearly exams to ensure your pet receives the best care as they age.
Based on the findings, we'll recommend a treatment plan that may include medications, different activities, and dietary changes that will help improve your senior pet's health and comfort.
Geriatric pets are typically more prone to the following conditions than younger pets:
- Joint or bone disorders
- Cancer
- Heart Disease
- Blindness and hearing loss
- Liver disease
- Diabetes
- Kidney disease
- Urinary tract disease
