We Perform Routine Wellness Exams
At our “animal hospital near me,” we perform wellness exams as part of our routine veterinary care. This allows us to examine your pet for any signs of disease or illness. After all, as with humans, catching any health issues early may be an important part of treating them effectively. Of course, this includes dermatology problems like irritation, hair loss, scabs, sores, and more. We will also discover if your pet has a rash or not.
In addition to looking for skin problems in dogs, we can also ask you questions about your pet's exercise habits, diet, behavior, and any changes that you have noticed recently. All that can help us form a complete picture of your pet's health. If you have a healthy adult pet, we may recommend you bring him in to our “animal hospital near me” for a routine wellness exam once a year.
Dr. Joki Can Prescribe Medicated Creams and More
Sometimes, your pet can find relief from its dermatological issues with a change in behavior. Perhaps your pet was rolling around in some stuff he should have avoided and avoiding that stuff can help the problem. However, Dr. Joki can also prescribe your pet medicated creams and other topical treatments as part of our dermatology care. It depends on the specifics of your pet's condition. You can rest assured that Dr. Joki will help figure out the right treatment for your pet, though.
