Routine Wellness and Vaccinations

A complete physical examination is important in keeping pets happy and healthy. Thompson Peak Veterinary Clinic recommends regular examinations and vaccinations to ensure your pet’s well-being. Each patient has a full medical history taken by our veterinarian, followed by a complete physical exam.

Vaccination recommendations are personalized to your individual pet’s lifestyle. Regular heartworm and parasite prevention is recommended for all pets. We recommend older pets, greater than 7 years of age, receive semi-annual exams and should have routine geriatric blood panels to screen for early signs of disease. With advances in veterinary medicine, many medical conditions can be diagnosed and managed, assuming early detection. It is important to remember that your pet ages faster than people and regular veterinary care is critical in ensuring a long and healthy life.

Microchips

This is important in cats as well since most indoor cats do not wear identification tags and can easily sneak outside. Please call us at (530) 253-3190 for more information.
