At your pet's vist, the veterinary technician will greet you and obtain your pet's medical history, which includes any changes in your pet's appetite, behavior and elimination habits. The doctor will then perform a comprehensive physical examination of your pet from head to tail. The doctor will discuss all examination findings with you and make recommendations for any necessary vaccinations if your pet is healthy. Vaccinations are administered based upon your pet's individual risk and the doctor will discuss the vaccinations with you. At the end of the appointment we will provide you with a pet ID card that will list all vaccinations that were administered and will include a picture of your pet.
If your pet is ill or if abnormalities are found during your pet's physical examination, the doctor may make recommendations for diagnostic testing. This may include blood and urine testing and x-rays, or may even include hospitalization and treatment if necessary. All recommedations are discussed with you in detail, and an estimate of anticipated cost of testing or treatment will be given to you.
At Mt Wachusett Veterinary Hospital we are committed to ensuring your pet's health.
