Once your pet enters the exam room, they will be evaluated by one of our DVMs (veterinary physicians). Appropriate care will be provided as directed by the veterinarian to ensure your pet’s safety during evaluation. After the initial assessment, the veterinarian will discuss with you the necessary diagnostic and medical procedures for sustained care and treatment. All ER visits include a brief diagnostic panel that checks kidney function, blood pressure, glucose levels, red blood cell levels, and a variety of other warning signs.
During your cat or dog’s annual visit, their veterinarian will perform a head-to-tail exam, run labs, and administer vaccines. Be sure to ask Hawthorne about our Wellness Program that lowers costs while improving your pet’s health!
