Exams

We provide a variety of exams for your pets to accommodate their needs at all stages of their life.  Our facility boasts 8 exam rooms ensuring that your visit will be convenient and comfortable.

Wellness Exams
Just like people our pets need regular check-ups to ensure that they are healthy and live long happy lives.  After the puppy or kitten stage, we recommend bringing your pet in for an annual check-up. Once your pet is a senior you may want to consider bringing them in more frequently as our pets age more quickly than we do.

Since our pets cannot tell us how they are feeling these appointments involve a full examination including checking all their vital signs like their weight and their temperature, conducting any necessary lab work and keeping your pet up to date on all vaccinations. 

These exams are also a chance for our doctors to talk to you about how your pet is doing and any changes that may have occurred in their health since their last appointment.  

Puppy & Kitten Plans
Puppies and kittens require more attention in order to set them on the right path for a long and healthy life.  With this in mind we offer both a puppy plan and a kitten plan. These plans cover all their initial visits and vaccinations. These plans also include a fecal test and routine deworming.  As part of our puppy and kitten plans we will discuss your new pet’s behavior, any training issues, long-term parasite protection, neutering and spaying and more.

Emergency Exams
If your pet is experiencing an emergency during business hours please call us right away. We are able to accommodate emergencies on a case-by-case basis depending on availability. We have a full ICU on site along with a dual surgery suite and a full on-site laboratory.

After an initial assessment and any services needed to stabilize your pet, we will then discuss long-term care options.

If it is after hours please call the Standiford Veteterinary Center at 209-577-3481 (www.standifordveterinary.com/services/emergency-vet).
