Do you want to know the secret to helping your pet enjoy a long, happy and healthy life?
As loving pet parents, we want our animal companions by our side for as many years as possible. At Marriottsville Animal Hospital, we believe the best way to ensure this happens is by making a commitment to their ongoing wellness. By bringing your pet in for regular checkups, you’ll help protect him or her from many common ailments that can affect companion animals. You’ll also give us the opportunity to identify and address potential health problems early, before they have chance to develop and worsen. These simple things can add years to your pet family’s life.
An Ounce of Prevention
Our wellness services are comprehensive and extremely thorough, because we want to do everything in our power to keep your loved one healthy. At each visit, the doctor will examine your pet from nose to tail, looking for anything out of the ordinary. We will also develop and implement a customized preventative care plan tailored to your pet’s unique needs, lifestyle and risk factors. This will include vaccines, parasite control, nutrition and weight management and anything else we deem relevant to your companion.
Ongoing Health Management
Wellness visits also provide us with regular snapshots of your pet’s health status at each appointment. We can then compare this information against previous exams to identify any changes. This allows us to detect the signs of illness early and develop an effective treatment plan in a timely manner. With many ailments, an early diagnosis can vastly improve the outcome for your pet. The more we stay on top of these things, the better chance we’ll have of extending and improving the quality of your companion’s life.
Getting to Know You
Finally, annual visits give all of us at Marriottsville Animal Hospital opportunity to build a personable bond with you and your pet. Developing a relationship with you and forging a bond with your animal friend is an integral and unique part of the care we provide at Marriottsville Animal Hospital. As your partner in managing your loved one’s health, we will do our best to make every vet visit more fluent and positive experience. By knowing your companion’s needs, the more precisely and effectively we can develop a health care plan for the life of your pet.
We all want to see that you and your pet’s special bond last for many wonderful years. We’d love to help you achieve that goal. Call us today and let’s get started!
