Zdravkovic, Nenad, DVM (Dr. Z.) - Towne Center Animal Hospital

We provide Comprehensive Physical Exam services to assess the overall health of your pet. During these exams, Dr. Z evaluates all body systems, checks for early signs of disease, and develops a detailed medical history for your pet. We highly recommend annual exams for optimal preventive care, especially in senior pets.

We administer essential Core Vaccinations (including rabies, distemper, and parvovirus) to protect your pet from deadly infectious diseases. These vaccines are recommended for all dogs and cats. We follow vaccination guidelines starting at around 8 weeks of age and provide annual or semi-annual boosters.

We provide Heartworm Testing & Prevention to safeguard your pet from this deadly mosquito-borne parasite. Prevention typically begins at 6–8 weeks old and continues monthly for your pet’s lifetime. We recommend semiannual testing for dogs, as there is no treatment for heart disease in cats.

We offer a variety of Flea & Tick Prevention options to protect your pet from parasites that can cause discomfort, allergies, and diseases like Lyme. Our programs are tailored to your pet’s lifestyle and risk factors for maximum effectiveness.

We provide Microchipping & Registration to ensure your pet can be quickly identified if lost. Each microchip stores a unique registration number linked to your contact information, which can be updated. This permanent, affordable solution significantly improves the chances of your pet being safely returned home.

We administer Parasite Deworming to eliminate intestinal worms, which are common in puppies, kittens, and even adult pets. Routine deworming is critical for young animals prone to parasite exposure, while adults typically require treatment twice yearly.

Our In-House Bloodwork services allow us to perform comprehensive CBC (Complete Blood Count) and Chemistry Panels using our state-of-the-art laboratory. This enables rapid and accurate diagnosis of diseases like infections, organ dysfunction, and anemia, avoiding delays that could worsen your pet’s condition.

We perform Urinalysis to evaluate kidney function, detect urinary tract infections, and diagnose conditions such as diabetes or bladder stones. Early detection allows for timely treatment and helps prevent chronic health issues.

Our hospital is equipped with modern Digital X-Rays (Radiography) to provide high-quality, non-invasive imaging of your pet’s internal structures. This technology helps diagnose fractures, organ abnormalities, and other conditions that may not be visible through physical exams alone.

Using Tonometry (Eye Pressure Testing), we screen for glaucoma by measuring intraocular pressure. This diagnostic tool helps detect early signs of this painful and vision-threatening condition, allowing us to provide timely intervention and management.

We monitor Blood Pressure to ensure your pet’s circulatory system remains healthy. High or low blood pressure can indicate serious conditions like heart disease or kidney disorders. Regular monitoring helps us detect early signs of hypertension or hypotension to intervene promptly.

We offer Spay & Neuter Surgery using our advanced CO2 surgical laser, ensuring greater comfort and a faster recovery for your pet. This common procedure helps prevent unwanted litters, reduces risk of certain cancers, and improves overall behavior.

We perform Foreign Body Removal for pets who accidentally ingest objects or develop wounds that require surgical intervention. Using our laser and advanced tools, we safely remove foreign objects to minimize trauma and promote healing.

We provide surgical repair for Wound & Laceration, cleaning and closing injuries to prevent infection and promote healing. Our techniques, including laser-assisted closure, reduce recovery time and discomfort.

We provide Emergency Stabilization procedures during critical situations when our office is unavailable, directing pet owners to nearby emergency clinics like the Veterinary Emergency Clinic of Central Florida or Animal Emergency Hospital DeLand (reachable via referrals). Our staff ensures continuity of care.

We offer Cold Laser Therapy, an FDA-cleared, non-invasive treatment for pain and inflammation. This therapy aids conditions like arthritis, tendonitis, post-surgical recovery, and wound healing. It requires no preparation beyond protective eyewear, offering safe and effective pain relief.
