What's a Mid-Year Wellness Exam?
At the Chastain Veterinary
Medical Group our principle objective is to eliminate
avoidable illnesses so that we can concentrate
on what we love doing – making pets happier and healthier
and enjoying our time with them.
That’s why we have created
the optional, free Mid-Year Wellness Exam.
And that’s why we’ve made it available, at no additional
charge,
our
dog
and
cat owning clients whose pets received their most recent
Annual
Physical Exam with us.
At the optional Mid-Year Wellness Exam, pets receive
a no-charge physical exam from the doctor, a weigh-in,
body condition
scoring, and dietary review and discussion. During
this same visit, any screening diagnostic tests that
the doctor
feels
may be of value to the pet are also discussed. These
may include such things as the Heska ERD HealthScreen™
Test,
a screening ECG for the heart, or a Tonometry test
to help detect glaucoma early. Each of these screening
tests
is optional,
simple, painless, and economically priced.
Dogs on semi-annual injectable heartworm preventive (Proheart™
injectable or moxidectin) also receive their next booster
during the Mid-Year Wellness Exam.
