We recommend physical wellness exams every 6 months, because your pet is aging at a increased rate and it allows us to give them the best possible care throughout their lifespan. We will send reminders in the form of email, texts and/or postcards for this exam. At this appointment the doctor will perform a complete physical exam that will include teeth and gum examination if needed. Dr. Wesley Hood or Dr. Tom Hancock will check the health of your pet from head to tail, and you will be very happy you came to Pro-Vet of Siloam Springs for your veterinary needs.
Bring in any medical history you have of your pet when you come to our vet clinic. It's best to keep a journal of your pet's health throughout his or her life, including behavioral shifts. If you have something like this, share it with our team. If not, let us know everything that you think will be important. Dr. Wesley Hood and Dr. Tom Hancock can still work with whatever information you have.
In some circumstances a referral to a specialist who has advanced expertise in areas such as internal medicine or surgery may be needed.
