- Physical Examination: Our veterinarian will conduct a thorough nose-to-tail exam to assess your pet’s overall health.
- Dental Evaluation: A check-up of your pet’s teeth and gums to assess for tartar buildup, gum disease, or other dental issues.
- Specialist Referrals (If Needed): If your pet requires advanced care beyond general veterinary services, a referral to a specialist may be provided.
- Vaccinations & Preventative Care: If needed, we will administer vaccines and discuss parasite prevention and other routine care options.
- Diagnostic Testing: Depending on your pet’s health, bloodwork, urinalysis, or imaging may be recommended.
- Treatment & Recommendations: Based on our findings, we will provide recommendations for treatment, diet, medications, or follow-up care.
- Check-out & Next Steps: Our staff will assist with scheduling future appointments, processing payments, and answering any final questions.

How to Prepare
To make your pet’s visit as stress-free as possible, consider the following preparation tips:
- Arrive Early: Plan to arrive 15 minutes before your scheduled appointment to complete any necessary paperwork and allow your pet time to acclimate to the environment.
- Bring Medical Records: If this is your pet’s first visit with us, bring any previous medical records or vaccination history.
- Pack Comfort Items: A favorite toy, blanket, or some treats can help ease your pet’s anxiety during the visit.
- Fasting Requirements: Some tests or procedures may require your pet to refrain from eating beforehand. If fasting is necessary, we will inform you when scheduling the appointment.
- Use a Secure Carrier or Leash: Ensure your pet is safely secured in a pet carrier (for cats and small dogs) or on a leash to prevent stress and accidents in the waiting area.
- Prepare a List of Concerns: Jot down any questions or symptoms you’ve noticed to discuss with the veterinarian.
If your pet must undergo a procedure that requires more precise knowledge and experience, Dr. Beeson may refer you to a specialist with advanced studies in internal medicine, surgery, and emergency care.
